The wait is over for the most advanced three-row luxury SUV in the Acura lineup. The 2026 Acura MDX has arrived at Bloomington Acura, featuring a massive tech overhaul, a more aggressive exterior, and the mechanical precision required to navigate Minneapolis highways and Rochester winters with equal confidence. With a standard 290-horsepower V6 and a newly redesigned 12.3-inch touchscreen interface, the 2026 MDX is built for drivers who demand zero compromises between family utility and high-end performance.
If you are ready to upgrade your daily drive in Edina, our team is standing by to help you explore our current stock of Technology, A-Spec®, and Advance packages. Explore our 2026 Acura MDX inventory above or stop by our local Acura dealership for a test drive.
Every 2026 Acura MDX comes standard with a potent 3.5L V6 engine paired with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission. For those commuting through the Twin Cities, the available Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®) is a game-changer. Unlike traditional systems, SH-AWD® is a rear-biased torque-vectoring system that can send up to 70% of power to the rear wheels, and 100% of that power to either the left or right wheel to maximize cornering grip and stability on icy St. Paul streets.
For enthusiasts seeking the ultimate thrill, our Acura MDX Type S inventory showcases the 355-horsepower turbocharged V6 and adaptive air suspension. This performance-tuned model provides the muscle needed for 5,000-lb towing and the agility of a much smaller sport sedan.
Acura has completely reimagined the interior experience for 2026. The previous touchpad is gone, replaced by a highly intuitive 12.3-inch HD touchscreen featuring Google built-in. This integration brings Google Maps, Google Assistant, and Google Play directly into your dashboard, allowing you to use natural voice commands to set your route to St. Louis Park or adjust the tri-zone climate control.
Audio Excellence: Multiple packages feature a custom-tuned Bang & Olufsen® Premium Sound System with up to 31 speakers on the Type S Advance trim.
Intelligent Versatility: The multi-function second row includes a removable center seat, providing the flexibility to switch between a bench and captain’s chairs in seconds.
Safety First: The standard AcuraWatch™ suite includes Collision Mitigation Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, and Lane Keeping Assist.

What is the towing capacity of the 2026 Acura MDX?
With the standard 3.5L V6 and available SH-AWD® (and the proper towing accessories), the MDX is rated to tow up to 5,000 lbs. Front-wheel-drive models are rated for 3,500 lbs.
Is Google built-in standard on all trims?
Yes, for the 2026 model year, Google built-in (including Google Maps and Assistant) is integrated into the 12.3-inch touchscreen across the entire MDX lineup.
How does SH-AWD help in the snow?
Acura’s SH-AWD® system is active, meaning it doesn’t wait for wheel slip to engage. It continuously directs power to the wheels with the most traction, which provides superior stability when merging on snowy highways or turning on unplowed suburban roads.
The 2026 MDX is the standard-bearer for the modern luxury SUV, offering more tech, more power, and more versatility than ever before.
