View Inventory View Gallery Contact Us
The 2026 Acura MDX Platinum Elite A-Spec is built for drivers who want luxury to feel engaging, confident, and a little more athletic. Available at Southview Acura in Edmonton, AB, this trim blends bold A-Spec design cues with Acura’s most advanced technology and the trusted performance of Super Handling All-Wheel Drive. It is the MDX for drivers who want refinement without giving up excitement.
V6 Power That Feels Effortless Every Day
Under the hood, the MDX Platinum Elite A-Spec is powered by a 3.5-litre direct-injection SOHC i-VTEC V6 engine that delivers 290 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 267 lb-ft of torque at 4,700 rpm. Power delivery is smooth and responsive, whether you are merging onto Anthony Henday Drive or heading out of the city for a weekend getaway. Acura’s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system actively distributes torque to improve traction, cornering stability, and overall confidence in all seasons, which is especially valuable during Edmonton winters.
This MDX is also ready to work when needed. Properly equipped, towing capacity reaches up to 5,000 lbs, making it suitable for small campers, utility trailers, or recreational gear. Fuel efficiency is rated at 12.6 L/100 km in the city, 9.4 L/100 km on the highway, and 11.2 L/100 km combined, offering a strong balance between performance and everyday practicality.
A-Spec Styling That Stands Out Instantly
The Platinum Elite A-Spec trim gives the MDX a noticeably sportier presence. It rides on 20-inch Berlina Black aluminum wheels that add contrast and attitude to the exterior. Jewel Eye LED headlights with auto on and off functionality lead the way, while Chicane LED daytime running lights, LED fog lights, and distinctive Chicane LED taillights complete the sharp, modern look. Subtle touches like LED outer door handle lights add a premium feel every time you approach the vehicle.
A Cabin Designed Around the Driver

Inside, the A-Spec interior Sport Appearance Package creates a space that feels both luxurious and performance focused. Active Noise Cancellation and Active Sound Control work together to keep the cabin quiet and composed, even at highway speeds. Comfort features include an auto-dimming rearview mirror, illuminated vanity mirrors for both front occupants, and integrated second-row sunshades that help keep passengers comfortable on bright days.
The Integrated Dynamics System lets you tailor how the MDX feels behind the wheel, with drive modes that include Snow, Comfort, Normal, Sport, and Individual. Whether conditions are slick or the road opens up, the MDX adapts to match your driving style.
Advanced Safety That Works in the Background

The 2026 MDX Platinum Elite A-Spec comes well equipped with Acura’s advanced driver assistance technologies. Features such as Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Blind Spot Information, Rear Cross Traffic Monitor, Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Warning, and the Collision Mitigation Braking System all work together to support awareness and help reduce stress during daily driving.
