Exterior.

The RDX is design in motion. Sleek body lines emanate from the striking Diamond Pentagon grille and draw your eyes along to the sculpted rear. LED-illuminated Dragon Tail taillights add a dramatic flair to the already bold design. Rectangular dual exhaust finishers complete the look for a premium presence on the road.

 

The impressive front fascia is illuminated by brilliant Jewel Eye® LED Headlights and that keep their jewel-like appearance even when off. They cast a bright and natural light for superior down-road visibility. Chicane™ LED DRLs round off the design for a striking signature look.

This is the pinnacle of performance-focused styling. Gloss black accents and 20-in Shark Gray alloy wheels sharpen the sleek design of the RDX. Larger round exhaust finishers give off a more muscular look while A-Spec badging and a finned rear diffuser embolden the exterior design.

Find your shade of power with a premium paint finish in Performance Red Pearl, Liquid Carbon Metallic, Majestic Black Pearl, Platinum White Pearl, Phantom Violet Pearl, and Apex Blue Pearl. These durable pigments are applied in a series of tinted clear coats for brilliant chromatic color that has a deep, rich finish.
