Acura MDX 2015 - 3.5-L V-6 290 hp

Inspired by the Standards of Mankind

The i-VTEC V-6 produces 290 hp and 267 lb-ft. of torque . When immediate acceleration is required, the engine responds with smooth aggression, like only an Acura can. 

But at highway cruising speed, the Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) system calms the waters and allows the engine to run only three cylinders, greatly enhancing fuel efficiency.

The MDX draws both power and efficiency from an all-new 3.5-liter, 290-horsepower V-6 engine that features Direct Gas Injection, Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) and the Acura i-VTEC system.

Intelligent Variable Timing and lift Control (i-VTEC) increases horsepower by advancing valve timing relative to engine rpm. High-rpm airflow is enhanced at approximately 4500 rpm when intake valve openings are extended deeper and for longer duration.
