Acura Coins ZDX for X-6 Killer Concept

I don't really get this segment. It's like "I want a SUV but not really". It's different and I won't knock it. That's a really nice looking silouette. Just hope they don't f*** up the nose.

X6 Killer? I doubt it. It will have the same bland interior that every other Accord has with the plain lines and lame textures.

BMW killer? HAH! Acura is just the next Japanese company in line trying to pick some low lying fruit from BMW's tree. How many BMW killers do we have to endure? Face it, Acura will offer 80% of the X6 performance at 80% of the price and those who can't afford an X6 will be in hog heaven. Just ask any RX owner why he didn't buy an X5 - the RX was cheaper and they didn't really "need" (meaning want to pay for) the performance of the X5.

thstone - the RDX competes with the X3 not the X5, the MDX competes with it. You haven't seen the new Acura yet so how do you know what it'll have. Also, it will probably be 80% of the price of the X6, but the Acura will probably have 120% of the features if it doesn't match the performance.

A what engine does this "X6 Killer" have to compete with the twin-turbo V8?

How is this going to kill the X6? The BMW already isn't flying off dealer lots. It would seem that when developing any product to directly take on another, you would take into account the sales of the competing product. That is, however, unless Acura believes that it genuinely can out-X6 the X6 in some aspect, as opposed to just offering an alternative in the segment.

you all are all haters, the rdx is the closest to the cayanne, best handler and the interiors of all acuras KILLLLLL beamer interiors. X6 is a ugly piece of garbage and even with a v6 this will eat the x6 alive on the track with SH-AWD. If you guys are actually that retarded the last gen of tl-s raped the track, meaning it beat infinity g35!!!!! and its front wheel drive. This crossover will beat the beamer in everything but maybe not a straight line, but who cares about going straight corners are for men.

300BHP engine from RL and SH-AWD will make it a good competitor of X6 xdrive35i and Cayenne S. Plus lots of features and roughly $10K less than the German competitors. Nice.

Acura coins an X-6 killer? I believe the freakish X-6 already killed itself.

i have a feeling that acura's version in this segment will look much better than infiniti's and bmw's. still useless in my opinion though (meaning this segment).

Unless it can make that nice V8 sound like the X6 - or else, no competition - maybe a cheaper alternative.

lmfao at X6 killer. It will have the same oversized, underpowered V-6. The X6 has diesels, I-6tt, V-8tt and a X6 M coming.

This is just more of what Acura is. A knock-off luxury brand for loyal Civic chumps.
