Acura Automobiles: All-New 2014 Acura MDX Debuts at the New York International Auto Show

Acura today unveiled the all-new 2014 MDX luxury SUV at the 2013 New York International Auto Show (NYIAS). Built on a completely new platform, the seven-passenger MDX offers improved ride comfort, a more versatile and luxurious cabin, increased fuel efficiency and enhanced dynamic performance. The MDX will also be offered for the first time in a more affordable and even more fuel-efficient two-wheel-drive configuration.

"Building on the award-winning dynamic performance of the previous model, the third-generation MDX adds new levels of luxury comfort, family functionality and fuel efficiency to once again set the luxury SUV benchmark," said Jeff Conrad, vice president and general manager of Acura Sales. "From Nrburgring-tuned dynamics and thoughtful interior appointments, to the addition of a new two-wheel-drive model, the all-new MDX continues Acura's direction of creating vehicles that advance the synergy between man and machine."

Powertrain
The 2014 Acura MDX is powered by an all-new direct-injected 24-valve 3.5-liter i-VTEC V-6 engine with Variable Cylinder Management (VCM), producing 290 horsepower and 267 lb.-ft. of torque. The MDX's engine architecture is shared with two racecars that recently finished First and Second in the LMP2 class at the 12 Hours of Sebring endurance race in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS). Employing a 6-speed automatic transmission with Sport Mode and Sequential SportShift Paddle Shifters, the new MDX will be offered in both Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) and two-wheel-drive drivetrain variants, both featuring Acura's new Agile Handling Assist technology.

Matched to the highly efficient Earth Dreams Technology engine and the \ SH-AWD drivetrain, the 2014 MDX has an EPA fuel economy rating of 18/27/21 mpg1 (city/highway/combined), while the new front-wheel-drive model is EPA rated at 20/28/23 mpg1 (city/highway/combined).

While achieving even higher fuel economy ratings, the MDX remains a true driver's SUV with enhanced dynamic performance, including quicker acceleration, more responsive braking and even more precise steering feel. Tuned and tested on the grueling Nrburgring racing circuit in Germany, the lighter and more dynamic new 2014 MDX with SH-AWD bests the previous model's lap time by eight seconds.

To satisfy the preferences of multiple drivers in any family, the 2014 MDX features an all-new Integrated Dynamic System (IDS) with three modes: Sport, Normal and Comfort. IDS adjusts steering effort, throttle response, SH-AWD and active sound to suit the tastes of the driver. The MDX's new Amplitude Reactive Dampers, MacPherson strut front suspension and new multi-link rear suspension enable its more nimble and responsive handling and improved ride quality. 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels and 245/60-18 tires come standard on the MDX. Technology and Advance grades are equipped with 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels and 245/55-19 tires.

Body and Styling
The 2014 MDX body applies more than 55 percent advanced lightweight materials including high strength steel, aluminum and magnesium resulting in a vehicle that is both more rigid and lightweight, with total vehicle weight reduced 275 pounds from the previous model. Measuring 193.6 inches in overall length, 77.2 inches in overall width (excluding door mirrors), 67.6 inches in overall height, and riding on a 111-inch wheelbase (up 2.75 inches from the previous model), the new MDX boasts an "Executive Aero Sculpture" exterior design that lends it a sleek, tailored and sophisticated appearance. The aerodynamic body design refined by engineers in a new wind tunnel at the company's Ohio R&D center helps the MDX achieve a more than 17 percent improvement in aerodynamic efficiency, making it one of the most aerodynamic and fuel-efficient luxury SUVs on the road.

The 2014 MDX also takes a big step up in luxury comfort and quiet. The MDX's dynamically tuned platform, more airtight body and triple path isolated dampers, along with the use of new sound-deadening materials, such as acoustic glass and expanding body sealers, and Active Noise Control technology, make this the quietest and most composed MDX yet.

Interior
Equally adept at carrying clients and kids, the new MDX boasts a luxurious and versatile interior. The revised body dimensions and new, more compact multi-link rear suspension, combined with innovative new technologies on the second-row seats, significantly improve third-row access and all-around passenger comfort. Third-row ingress and egress is significantly improved by a two-inch lower step-in height and three-inch wider entryway, and by the introduction of a new One-Touch Walk-In feature. With a single press of the illuminated One-Touch Walk-In button, the second-row seats automatically fold and slide to their forward-most position. The second-row seats now feature a four-position recline and a new Extended Slide capability that provides six inches of total fore-aft seat adjustment for optimal balance between second- and third-row legroom. Rear cargo capacity is also improved and includes a new underfloor storage area.

Up front, there is a 10-way power adjustable and heated driver's seat and an 8-way power and heated passenger seat. The MDX also addresses a major shortcoming of many luxury SUVs available front-seat storage space with a spacious new center console that can accommodate a purse, laptop case, or a pair of iPads. The MDX's luxury quotient is further boosted by its upgraded interior appointments, including premium leather-trimmed interior, silver plated accents, LED overhead and cabin accent lighting, along with new optional luxury features, such as Smart Entry, second-row sunshades, remote engine start, and auto-linked air conditioning and climate-controlled seats.

Acura Signature Technology
In addition, the 2014 Acura MDX harnesses a range of Acura signature technologies, including Acura Jewel Eye LED headlights, more powerful Acura/ELS Studio premium audio system, and the next-generation AcuraLink connectivity system with AcuraLink Real-Time Traffic, featuring freeway traffic and surface street conditions (free for the first three years). In addition to the traffic services, the AcuraLink cloud-based connected car system offers an assortment of media, convenience, information and security features via an embedded cellular system and compatible web-enabled smartphones.

Both the AcuraLink and Acura/ELS Studio system take advantage of a 7-inch color On Demand Multi-Use Display (ODMD) touchscreen with haptic feedback and an 8-inch Color Information Display. The addition of the ODMD, along with other interior changes, allowed engineers to reduce the number of hard buttons in the center stack from 41 to just nine. The available Entertainment package adds a DVD Rear Entertainment system with a 9-inch full VGA screen for the rear seats, while the Advance package replaces the 9-inch monitor with an ultra-wide, 16.2-inch full VGA screen with HDMI compatibility for devices such as a game console.

The 2014 MDX offers a host of innovative driver assistive and visibility technologies, including a Multi-Angle Rearview Camera and available Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow, Blind Spot Information (BSI), and Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS).

Safety
The third-generation MDX is expected to achieve top-level safety ratings, including a 5-star Overall Vehicle Score from NHTSA and a TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), including the highest possible rating of GOOD in the Institute's new small-offset frontal collision test.

The new MDX is equipped with a broad array of advanced safety technologies, including the next generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering II (ACE II) body structure, 4-wheel Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Traction Control, and airbags (front, front side, driver's knee and side curtain with rollover sensor), as well as the available Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW) systems.

The 2014 Acura MDX is scheduled to go on sale at U.S. Acura dealers nationwide this summer and will be available in four grades the well-equipped MDX, the robust MDX with Technology package, the rear-passenger-friendly MDX with Technology and Entertainment packages, and the top-of-the-line MDX with Advance and Entertainment packages. The 2014 MDX was designed and developed in the U.S. and will be built at the Lincoln, Alabama plant using domestic and globally sourced parts. Pricing details will be announced closer to launch.

Acura Automobiles: Campaign for All-New Acura RLX Features Innovative, Multidimensional Marketing and Kicks Off with March College Basketball Tournament

An integrated, multiplatform advertising campaign supporting the debut of the all-new 2014 Acura RLX, recently launched, featuring extensive, yet targeted placements on TV and in print, digital and mobile. The robust campaign, communicating the theme, "Luxury, taken to a whole new level," is designed to heighten awareness of the Acura brand while also capturing the attention of prospective RLX owners.

"The all-new Acura RLX is one of the most innovative luxury sedans on the market, aimed at the affluent customers who form the heart of the premium luxury sedan market," said Mike Accavitti, vice president of national marketing operations. "By utilizing an integrated campaign in the context of the big annual college hoops tournament, we are able to reach a large audience and still remain highly targeted."

Throughout March and April, the dynamic media mix is composed of high-impact, mass-awareness placements in the late-round men's college basketball tournament games; sponsorship of the ESPN Tournament Challenge, which includes TV, display, mobile, video, social and brand ownership of the brackets; and video sponsorship of the college basketball tournament on demand. Tapping in to the target's passion for golf, there will also be a strong presence in the Masters Tournament, the U.S. Open and other upcoming tours on CBS.

While speaking to a broad audience is critical to generate awareness for Acura's new luxury sedan, this campaign also is focused on capturing the attention of the RLX core target. That means delivering the message where this discerning target consumes media: The media pie is nearly equally divided among TV, print and digital, to take advantage of the targets' media-consumption habits.

Beginning in April and continuing throughout the summer, highly focused and frequent media will sustain RLX awareness by leveraging cable networks such as Bloomberg and CNBC; print that includes Forbes, Travel+Leisure and Wired; impactful New York Times and Wall Street Journal units; and home-page takeovers on news, sports and financial sites; and mobile and video networks. This campaign marks Acura's most significant marketing investment in mobile to date. Extensive use of data layering of digital and mobile network buys will ensure reach to RLX prospects. Notably, Acura will continue to leverage Apple's mobile iAd units, following a very successful campaign for the recently-launched Acura RDX.

RLX campaign creative is positioned to build prestige by highlighting , signature technologies such as Precision All-Wheel Steer (P-AWS) , Jewel Eye LED headlights and the next generation of the AcuraLink connected car system, as well as luxury-class interior room and comfort. A new TV spot, "Luxury, Luxury," multiple print spreads and pages, and video units and digital banners will amplify RLX prestige messaging.

On sale tomorrow, the 2014 Acura RLX is Acura's all-new luxury flagship sedan. Powered by a new 310-horsepower direct-injected V-6 engine, the RLX represents Acura's advancement toward a higher level of luxury, comfort and quietness while still maintaining the brand's leading dynamic performance.

Acura Automobiles: Acura TL Wins "Best Cars for Families" Award From U.S. News and World Report

The 2013 TL, Acura's performance luxury sedan, has been named "Best Upscale Midsize Car for Families" by U.S. News & World Report in its 2013 "Best Cars for Families" awards.

"The Acura TL offers the ideal blend of performance, comfort and safety, resulting in a luxury sedan that's a smart choice for families," said Mike Accavitti, vice president of national marketing operations. "The TL provides parents with the performance they desire in a luxury sedan paired with a well-appointed interior, top safety ratings, a host of standard Acura technologies and spacious second row seating that is ideal for clients and children."

The "Best Cars for Families" awards combine quality, size and family-friendly features into a composite score. Quality is measured using a weighted average of scores from the U.S. News rankings at the time the awards are published. The rankings compare cars on the basis of safety, reliability and a consensus of automotive critics' opinions. Size is based on a vehicle's seating capacity and interior space. For family-friendly features, U.S. News factors in the availability of features deemed to be helpful to families by its editors.

The 2013 TL, featuring Acura's Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure, was among the first vehicles to receive the highest possible safety rating of TOP SAFETY PICK+from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) under its more-stringent testing guidelines.

Ahmed was the product consultant through whom I purchased my used Honda S2000. Ahmed was very helpful in showing this car and went out of his way to ensure I was satisfied with the dealer service when brokering the deal for this car. The transaction was handled efficiently and professionally. I would certainly recommend Ahmed and Precision Acura of Princeton if you are in the market for a new or used vehicle. Thank you Ahmed...CJP Mar. 6, 2013

This was my second car purchase with Ahmed because the first experience was just so GREAT! Buying a car can be a very stressful and painful experience but with Ahmed you never feel pressure or like you are playing that tug of war game! He is just so down to earth and so very pleasant to deal with AND you know he is trying his best to put you in a car that is just right for you and your budget. Ahmed really goes that extra mile so you walk away knowing he did his absolute best for you. Without hesitation I highly recommend Ahmed for your next car buying experience!

Last week I went down to Precision Acura Princeton since I wanted to Trade in a used car for my used car. There I met the Sales representative Ahmed Heba.I am glad to tell you that Ahmed was very active and energetic in order to give me the best deal since I had a price constraint. He asked my preference and showed me the best cars which he had based on the model I was looking for. At the end of it I got a Toyota Camry which was the best deal both in cost and after comparing with other dealers.The car is in mint condition just like new and had a great carfax record with all maintianance records.At the end I would like to thank you Ahmed Heba for the great deal.Thanks,Varun
