Rumor: Acura’s Next Flagship SUV Will Sit Above the MDX

The Acura MDX has long been the brand’s largest SUV, but it could soon be getting an even bigger sibling.

A new report from Automotive News suggests Acura is targeting the Lexus TX with a new flagship SUV, internally referred to as the “Acura XL” in a Honda document.

The new three-row SUV would slot above the MDX and is expected to feature an all-new large-vehicle hybrid powertrain, giving Acura a larger, more premium offering in its SUV lineup. Production is reportedly slated to begin in September 2029 at Honda’s Lincoln, Alabama, plant.

While details remain limited, the move would position Acura to compete more directly in the growing full-size luxury SUV segment.

Would you trade your MDX for an even larger Acura SUV?
