What Acura MDX do most buyers choose?

The Acura MDX years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, colour, and price. They also sit in the sweet spot where newer features and broader availability often overlap.

What is the Acura MDX's resale value?

Most MDX model years are down by double digits year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used and want stronger value. The newer models are also seeing meaningful price drops, so recent inventory can be especially attractive if you want updated features without paying new-car pricing. The pattern suggests broad softening across the lineup rather than isolated movement in just a few years.

The 2014, 2023, and 2025 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
