Compare 2019 INFINITI QX50 vs 2019 Acura RDX

Interior Features

The interior of the 2019 INFINITI QX50 features one of the finest cabins in its class due to premium materials that replace the Nissan trim and switchgear that can be found in the preceding model. Seude-blue accents are even included on the center console and doors on the upper trims. Five passengers can fit comfortably inside of the car due to spacious and supportive seats that are provided. Standard features include the InTouch dual-screen infotainment system, a six-speaker audio system, a USB port, satellite radio, and Bluetooth. Drivers can also choose to upgrade to tri-zone automatic climate control, a 17-speaker Bose audio system, remote start, navigation, lane departure warning and prevention, backup collision intervention, and front and rear parking sensors. The dual-screen infotainment system is the highlight on the dashboard and makes it easier to adjust the settings without becoming distracted.

The interior of the 2019 Acura RDX features a revamped infotainment system that is easier to use than what is available in the 2018 RDX. In some instances, the touchscreen can be challenging to play with if you don’t place your finger on the right part of the screen. 29.5 cubic feet of cargo space is available with discrete storage compartments provided underneath the floor.

Performance

For a luxury midsize SUV, the 2019 INFINITI QX50 offers excellent performance with a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that delivers 268 horsepower. The car proves to be peppy and is responsive when you put the pedal to the metal. Its fuel efficiency is also favorable with 24 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. The engine is also extremely quiet despite its power, which allows the cabin to feel comfortable and relaxing.

With 272 horsepower, the 2019 Acura RDX delivers solid acceleration and is outfitted with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that is paired with a 10-speed transmission. The power isn’t as impressive as the QX50, but it still has a throaty exhaust note that allows it to be fun to drive and show off on the highway. The car is athletic but doesn’t offer as smooth of a ride compared to the QX50, which can make it less comfortable on long drives
