I noticed this as well, I suspect it is just a price increase from Acura. My Advance was built 11/18, and has the $100 lower MSRP, but another one on the lot had the higher price.

RDX is a huge success for Acura. Honestly adding MDX and TLX to this equation, it woll
lead to one thing: SUCCESS

This likely is calendar year 2018 sales which would, of course, include both 2018 (2G) and 2019 (3G) RDXs. I believe that the others are "carryover" models.

Good info...the vehicles with downward trending sales are more likely to be prime for good discounts through negotiation with dealers.

This is the 3G RDX data (vs the 2G comparison that shows up in the Honda news release)

Nice month for Honda/Acura. Accord is picking up steam now too. RDX is just killing it. Seeing more and more on the road. But I must see 10 MDX each day on my drive to and from work. They are everywhere!
If they hit the mark on the new TLX, it will fly. They tweaked the ILX and the numbers are increasing. Once they get a new TLX, it should do well. The new RDX proves the brand loyalty is there if they put out the right product/value.

Also note they have sold more electric vehicles YTD than RDX. That is a huge increase and a trend that is only getting hotter.

Honestly RDX is just killing it. But I am not surprised. The total package is unbeatable.
Overall, Acura had a great month. Looking forward to see more of 14K+ units selling per month

RDX proves that people aren’t just looking for luxury interior or 500HP. People want a package and RDX provides that

Btw, just checked the QX50 and the numbers are beyond disappointing. Less than 2K units were sold. Epic fail and disaster by Infiniti. Their 6 year old QX60 is doing super well with the dinasour infotainment.

The RDX is doing well, but the competition is doing even better. BMW sold 6,727 X3 models in March, and Audi sold 6,529 Q5s, notwithstanding higher prices.

Hopefully a new TLX, similar to the RDX (but with fewer issues) will be out soon.

The fact that RDX is competing so close with these two power houses is a sign
of success and achievement!!

I am genuinely impressed by RDX sales numbers.

The 2020 TLX was just announced. It's a carry over with the new $400 premium paint options as the only changes. You'll have to wait until next year for an all new TLX.

Yea, I saw that. The fact that the 2020's are coming out so early hopefully indicates that the 2021 new generation TLX will be released early in 2020.

When I was waiting for my oil change, tire rotation, and inspection to be done on my 2019 RDX, two trucks each with a full load of 2019 RDX vehicles rolled in to the dealership on the short drive down from East Liberty, OH where they are assembled. Must have been at least a dozen vehicles, maybe 16. So it is apparent that they are selling pretty well at this dealership.

I am baffled by Infiniti. Most of their product line up got hit with a proverbial ugly stick. I am not sure why. I wouldn't even consider the QX50. The entry level SUV/CUV is a hot market. The Q4, MB GLC, X3 and Volvo XC60 are all attractive cars with loads of options. The Acura RDX is attractive and has an overall package that is more affordable than the European rivals. Hopefully Acura does this with the redesigned MDX and TLX.

Guys this is phenomenal performance.... Just to put this in perspective the US auto market in total -5% for the first quarter and Mazda is down ~20% for quarter as well over last year. Even with the new 2.5T they are down ~15% on the CX5 and bleeding market share.

Once got 10 people (5 couples) into a B210. We figured if we got into an accident, we would all just ooz out the windows.

People were a lot slimmer back then. And more bendable. I know I was.

It's a little shocking how well the ILX is doing with just a cosmetic redo. It's basically the same car.
The TLX will probably drop 25-30% this year alone. Just think what they could be doing if they had a new TLX, the updated ILX and the RDX all selling at the same time.
And add a meaningful flagship...the RLX is a joke.

Almost 1.5 times as many RDXs as MDXs sold in April. IIRC it used to be the other way around.

Kinda seems like Acura needs to get the next-gen MDX out the door.

After they finish letting us beta-test the next-gen infotainment system.

Some troll signed up and started a thread with his first post characterizing the operation of the infotainment system as difficult and distracting to the point of being unsafe, making the vehicle a "death trap". The thread is appropriately gone.

I will put it this way. When you spend $50 large for a car. 1) Read reviews 2) test drive it 3) sit in it an hour at the dealership if you are uncertain. 4) Purchase it if it meets your needs.

Yes it was a learning curve. After one week, I like it. I evolved and adapted to its very nature. The best? No. Do I love the RDX overall-Yep
