The RDX Technology Package will come to market with an MSRP of $43,990.
“The 2013 Acura RDX is improved in just about every way and embodies much of Acura’s future direction -- beautiful timeless design, luxury detail and the technology that customers expect,” said Alexandre Roger, vice president of Acura Canada. “It’s more powerful, roomier, quieter and has improved fuel efficiency.
