How The Acura RDX Stacks Up Against The Toyota RAV4
The 2021 Acura RDX and 2021 Toyota RAV4 are both compact crossovers, but that’s about where the similarities end. Like other Acura automobiles, the new RDX is a premium and luxurious vehicle that compares favorably to its nearest competition from Toyota in many ways.
The 2021 Acura RDX makes for the ideal vehicle if you’re after a powerful, advanced and upscale new crossover. With its standard 272-hp turbocharged engine and available Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™, the RDX outperforms the Toyota RAV4 by a wide margin in both power and handling.
Being a premium luxury vehicle, the new Acura RDX boasts a higher starting MSRP than the value-priced Toyota RAV4. However, when you begin equipping the Toyota to try and match the Acura’s level of amenities, the price of the RAV4 quickly rises and no longer appears to be such a good value.
No matter how you equip the 2021 Toyota RAV4, however, it cannot match the Acura RDX’s potent 272-hp turbocharged powertrain! From its premium Milano leather to its panoramic moonroof and 16-speaker premium audio system, there are many amenities you’ll only find on the Acura in this head-to-head comparison.
