That’s why the team at Elite Acura has compiled this handy 2022 Acura RDX vs. 2022 Honda CR-V comparison. Check out all the important differences and discover which of these incredible crossovers is right for you.
The 2022 Acura RDX is a luxury SUV, so it has a sophisticated interior design. It’s constructed around the driver, using premium materials and finishes that’ll reflect their personal style. The dashboard is comprised of soft-touch material and an eye-catching brushed aluminum trim.
You’ll find standard leatherette-trimmed sport seats, which can be upgraded to Milano Premium leather-trimmed seating. Heated front seats are also standard. Heated rear outboard seats and ventilated front seats are available, so you can always cruise at your ideal temperature.
The 2022 Honda CR-V has a high-quality cabin as well. However, it doesn’t have quite the refined look that you’ll find in the RDX. It comes standard with cloth seats and has heated front seats, too, but you have to upgrade to a higher trim level to get them.
A Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control System is also available in the CR-V to let the driver and the front-seat passenger choose their preferred temperature settings. Yet that’s another feature that comes standard in the RDX.
The Acura RDX and the Honda CR-V have plenty of advanced technologies to help you stay connected and entertained.
For instance, the RDX comes standard with a 10.2-inch full HD center display, 9-speaker sound system, and Bluetooth® Streaming Audio to play music or make hands-free phone calls.
The CR-V also comes standard with Bluetooth® Streaming Audio capability. However, its base sound system has four speakers and the standard screen size comes in at only five inches.
The RDX comes standard with SiriusXM® Satellite Radio too. This gives you over 100 channels of comedy, news, sports, and commercial-free music to enjoy. If you want this feature in the CR-V, you’ll need to upgrade to a higher trim level.
Furthermore, the RDX has an available 16-speaker ELS Studio 3D® Premium Audio System for crystal-clear sound quality. Meanwhile, the greatest number of speakers you’ll get in the CR-V is nine.
The 2022 RDX comes with one engine option, a 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder engine that delivers 272 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The 2022 CR-V also has one engine option. However, its standard power and strength top out at 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque.
Both models come standard in front-wheel drive and have available all-wheel drive (AWD) systems. In each SUV, the AWD system will help maximize traction in both dry and slippery conditions. It’ll do this while minimizing friction and power loss to help optimize fuel efficiency.
Additionally, they both offer a composed and comfortable ride quality. If you’re into a sportier ride, however, then the RDX may be more your style. It has precise steering and strong brakes, offering handling that the CR-V can’t quite match.
While the both the 2022 Acura RDX and Honda CR-V have plenty to offer, for sportier drivers, the Acura RDX may be the better option.
You’ll need first-hand experience to determine if the Acura RDX is right for you, though, so be sure to schedule a test drive at Elite Acura. We’ll let you take the vehicle for a spin to gauge its performance around Maple Shade, Moorestown, and Cherry Hill, New Jersey.
