The MDX Type S is the high-performance variant of the critically acclaimed fourth-generation MDX, Acura’s flagship model, that went on sale this year. Like all 2021 and newer Acura models, the 2022 MDX Type S is built exclusively in Central Ohio.
Powered by Acura’s 355 hp Turbo V6
engine produced at the company’s state-of-the-art engine facility in
Anna, Ohio, the 2022 MDX Type S is the most powerful, best handling and
most lavishly equipped Acura SUV ever. Every MDX Type S comes with
adaptive air suspension for superior ride and handling, Brembo front
brakes and 21-inch wheels and tires. The line-topping Advance Package
adds 9-way massaging front seats and a new 25-speaker ELS Studio 3D
Signature Edition audio system delivering 1000 watts into the cabin.
The
2022 Acura MDX Type S was designed, engineered and developed in the
U.S., with full platform and vehicle development led by engineers in the
company's development center in Raymond, Ohio.
The MDX Type S is
the second Acura Type S model to arrive in this new era of Type S
performance, following the launch of the 2021 TLX Type S in June. The
limited-production 600 hp 2022 NSX Type S, revealed in August, will be
the third, and will be hand-built by master technicians at the
Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville, Ohio, beginning early
next year.
