Three rows of confident, polished luxury

Drive a MDX

The MDX is a three-row luxury SUV that seats up to seven, powered by a 290-hp V6 and a 10-speed automatic. It's a natural pick among Acura car rental options when your trip calls for every seat, plenty of bags, and a refined ride.

Booking an Acura MDX car rental on Turo works on your terms. You choose the exact MDX you want from a local vehicle owner. Then you set up pickup or delivery in the Turo app to fit your schedule.

Weight

Smooth V6 power with a turbo twist

The MDX gives you smooth V6 power through a 10-speed automatic, with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) on most trims. Standard models run a 3.5L V6 making 290 hp and 267 lb-ft of torque. The Type S adds the turbo twist — a 3.0L turbo V6 with 355 hp and 354 lb-ft for extra punch.

Room for seven, flexible for cargo

The MDX seats up to seven across three rows, and you can reshape the cabin around your crew and your gear. The second-row middle seat is removable, and the third row splits 50/50 — fold one side for bags and keep the other for a passenger.

Cargo space grows as you fold. You get 16.3 cubic feet behind the third row, 39.1 behind the second, and 71.4 behind the front row. Pack light when all seven seats are full, or fold both rear rows when the trip is more gear than people.

A cockpit that stays connected

The MDX keeps you connected from the moment you settle in. A 12.3-inch touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster put maps, media, and trip info front and center.

Google built-in runs right on the screen, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto let you skip the cables. Amazon Alexa built-in handles voice requests, Wi-Fi hotspot capability helps keep the back rows online, and a wireless charging pad keeps your phone topped up. Gemini is also rolling out to 2025-and-later MDX models with Google built-in, so newer listings keep getting smarter.

Stand out with a MDX

The MDX shines on trips where space and comfort both matter — family vacations, group getaways, airport runs with luggage, and multi-day drives. You get a three-row luxury feel without the commitment of buying one, plus the freedom to pick the year and trim that fit your plans. Compare it with other SUV rentals on Turo before you lock in your trip.

Top MDX features

decorative separator

Super Handling All-Wheel Drive

Three features set the MDX apart: Super Handling All-Wheel Drive, standard driver-assist on every trim, and premium audio with up to 31 speakers. Here's what each one means behind the wheel.

Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) gives the MDX extra confidence when the weather turns. Edmunds notes that it helps with traction in wet conditions — reassuring on a rainy airport run or a drizzly coastal drive.

SH-AWD comes on most trims, while the base and Technology trims use front-wheel drive (FWD). If you're heading somewhere with frequent rain, check the listing so you know which setup you're getting. Either way, you'll settle into a comfortable ride for long miles on the highway and around town.

Driver-assist features on every trim

Every MDX comes with a standard driver-assist suite, so you don't need to hunt for a specific trim to get it. Adaptive cruise control with low-speed follow keeps a set gap to the car ahead, and Traffic Jam Assist helps in stop-and-go traffic.

Traffic sign recognition shows you posted signs, and blind spot information flags vehicles beside you. Rear cross traffic monitor warns you about cross traffic when you back out. It's a real plus in an unfamiliar city — though you're still the one in charge.

Premium audio with up to 31 speakers

The MDX turns road-trip playlists into a real listening session, with audio that scales up by trim. The base model comes with an 11-speaker premium audio system that fills the cabin on everyday drives.

Step up to the Technology trim and you get a 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen system. The Type S goes all in with 31 Bang & Olufsen speakers — a setup that makes long stretches of highway fly by. If sound matters to you, check the listing's trim before you book.

Top tips and things to know before renting a MDX

Get to know your MDX

The best MDX trip starts with knowing which version you're booking, a few quick setup steps, and how pricing works on Turo. Here's what to check before you go.

Check each listing's year and trim before you book — power and fuel economy differ between versions. For the 2026 model year, FWD models are rated at 22 mpg combined, SH-AWD models at 21 mpg, and the Type S at 19 mpg.

Browse Acura rentals in Los Angeles, Acura cars in Miami, or Chicago Acura rentals to compare years and trims near your destination. Each listing shows the details, so you'll know exactly what you're driving.

MDX driving tips

Take a lap around a quiet parking lot to get a feel for the MDX's size, then use these tips to start your trip ready.

Pair your phone before you leave. Connect wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto while you're parked so navigation is ready to go.

Fold the third row for luggage. The 50/50 split lets you drop one or both sides, depending on how many people ride along.

Plan your fuel stops. Expect 19–22 mpg combined depending on drivetrain, so map out gas stations on longer drives.

How much does it cost to rent a MDX?

MDX rental prices on Turo vary by listing, since each local vehicle owner sets their own rate. Year, trip length, location, and extras all shape your total, and you'll see mandatory fees before you book.

Book four or more days ahead to get a 10% discount on a non-refundable trip. Listings can also include duration discounts for three-day, weekly, and monthly trips. For stays of 30 days or more, explore long-term car rental on Turo.

Frequently asked questions about MDX rentals on Turo

What documents do you need to rent a MDX on Turo?

These answers cover the documents, age requirements, discounts, and trip rules for MDX rentals on Turo.

You need a physical, valid driver's license, a payment method, and a verified phone number to book your MDX. Payment options include a card, Apple Wallet, or Google Wallet.

What type of license do you need to rent a MDX?

You need a permanent, valid US driver's license or a valid license from your home country to rent the MDX. Temporary licenses work if they're valid for your full trip — bring a photo ID too if yours doesn't include a photo.

Turo doesn't accept learner's permits, photocopies, or expired, provisional, or restricted licenses. An International Driving Permit (IDP) can't replace your license, either.

How old do you need to be to rent a MDX on Turo?

The minimum age depends on the vehicle class of the MDX listing you choose, which varies with the vehicle's value. Here's how the age requirements break down:

Drivers 18 and older can book standard vehicles.

Drivers 21 and older can book vehicles valued over $20,000.

Drivers 25 and older can book Deluxe vehicles.

Drivers 30 and older can book Super Deluxe, Classic, and Specialty vehicles.

Drivers ages 18–24 pay a young driver fee.

Is protection available for a MDX rental?

Yes — you can add a protection plan or decline one when you book your MDX. You'll see the available options in the Turo app before you confirm your trip.

Are there discounts on MDX rentals?

Yes. Book your MDX four or more days ahead to get a 10% discount on a non-refundable trip. Listings can also include duration discounts for three-day, weekly, and monthly trips.

Can you rent a MDX long term?

Yes — you can book the MDX for 30 days or longer, and monthly discounts may apply. Browse monthly rentals on Turo to plan an extended stay, a relocation, or a long work assignment.

Do MDX rentals include unlimited mileage?

It depends on the listing. Some MDX listings offer unlimited distance, while others set a daily limit shown on the listing page. If you go over the limit, you'll pay for the extra miles.

Can someone else drive the MDX?

Yes — you can add drivers to your MDX trip in the Turo app. Each additional driver must be approved and meet Turo's age and license requirements. The primary driver must pick up and return the MDX.

Can you cancel a MDX trip?

Yes, if you booked a standard, refundable trip — those come with a free cancellation period. Discounted non-refundable trips aren't refundable, so weigh flexibility against savings when you book your MDX.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

  2. For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
