Unveiled in December 2020 as a 2022 model year release, the fourth-generation Acura MDX (YD7 chassis) transitioned to an all-new light-truck platform designed for enhanced rigidity and athletic proportion. Key chassis innovations included a double-wishbone front suspension setup paired with a multi-link rear axle. The interior highlighted Acura's Precision Cockpit digital instrument panel, a 12.3-inch infotainment display managed by the True Touchpad Interface, and an optional 25-speaker ELS Studio 3D audio system. Engineering priorities for this generation focused on structural rigidity, chassis refinement, and elevating active safety capabilities.

The standard powertrain remains a 3.5-liter atmospheric J35Y5 V6 generating 290 horsepower, paired exclusively with a 10-speed automatic transmission and available fourth-generation SH-AWD. Late 2021 saw the arrival of the performance-focused MDX Type S, featuring a 3.0-liter turbocharged DOHC V6 producing 355 horsepower, Brembo front brakes, and Acura's first adaptive air suspension setup with adjustable ride heights. A comprehensive list of standard features combined with proven powertrain durability helped secure a strong market presence in its segment.
