Jamie Page Deaton: Now let's talk about how the Acura ZDX drives.

Most reviewers are really impressed with the ZDX's sporty performance, but before we take it for a spin, let's talk about what it has under the hood.

The ZDX has a 3.

7 liter V6 engine that makes 300 horsepower. Now a few reviewers complain that that's not enough power to move the ZDX down the road, but other reviewers say that it's fine. So it's something that you'll definitely want to check out on your test drive.

Fuel economy on the ZDX is just middle of the pack. According to the EPA, it gets 16 miles per gallon in the city and 23 miles per gallon on the highway. Now that you know about the ZDX's engine, let's take it for a spin and see how it does.

Most car reviewers say the ZDX is fun to drive and that's due in part to the fact that it has Acura's super handling all-wheel drive system standard. The system makes the ZDX handle more like a Sedan than an SUV, plus it gives it extra security in wet weather.

Now a few reviewers complain that the steering is a little bit numb. So that's something that you will want to check out on your test drive. And if the base ZDX doesn't feel like it handles well enough to you, you can get the optional IDS system. It's a system that lets you choose between comfort and sport suspension settings.

So the bottom line on the ZDX's performance is reviewers like how it drives more like a sport Sedan than an SUV. Its fuel economy and engine power aren't the best in the class, but all-wheel drive is standard, which is a plus.
