2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC Vs. 2020 Acura MDX

Luxury SUVs allow you to experience the ephemeral delight of driving in a vehicle built for sporty comfort with the added benefits of a huge cargo area, towing prowess and a high ride height.

Despite the affordability, they look and feel expensive.

Today, we’re comparing two very different models that aim to achieve the same end result. Both the Mercedes-Benz GLC and Acura MDX embody the spirit of their respective brands in the midsize luxury SUV segment. Which is superior, though? Let’s find out.
