Carivo independent review & score
The 2024 Acura MDX Type S. Carivo rates it 8.5/10 — one of the stronger scores in the suv segment and a result that holds up against close scrutiny.
Safety leads at 9/10. Crash-test results and standard driver-assistance coverage push it ahead of most suv rivals on occupant protection — a real differentiator for families. Even the lowest score — Value at 7.9/10 — clears a solid bar.
In the premium suv tier ($62,795–$75,492, 22 MPG, 7 passengers), it largely justifies the cost. Feature set and build quality hold up. At 2 years old, it’s recent enough that the core feature set holds up, but a newer generation may have addressed some of its weaker dimensions — worth comparing before buying.
