Serving Ridgeland, MS
When Acura released the RDX in 2006, this model delighted drivers as the brand’s first crossover. This gorgeous model continues to impress drivers in the Jackson area and beyond with its all-around exciting capabilities and features through intentional evolution. The Mercedes-Benz GLC and the RDX are both in the luxury compact crossover SUV class. Before selecting your new crossover, you need to understand how these models compare to you in the most critical areas.
Exterior
The 2020 RDX is a force to be reckoned with thanks to its commanding, sleek façade. At the front end, the pentagon-style grille that Acura is known for wraps across a curved nose. The LED headlights fade to a point above the muscular front haunches. With a powerful hood and a tapered, coupe-like roof, the RDX gets noticed for all right reasons. In comparison, the Mercedes-Benz GLC for 2020 has horizontal flow across the front end thanks to the dual-bar grille design and the lower-front fascia’s stretched appearance. The hood and sides have several crisp accent lines. Compared to the RDX, the hood has a sharper angle, and the roof is flatter.

Both of these luxury vehicles are well-appointed throughout the interior, but they carry different features. The RDX for 2020 has Milano leather seats, a premium sound system, heated seats in the front and rear, a GPS-linked climate control system, adaptive cruise control, natural language voice recognition, and other equipment all trims. In the 2020 GLC, you could find a touch control pad for the infotainment system’s features, controls mounted on the steering wheel, a floating display screen, ambient lighting, round air vents, and other equipment select trims.
Performance
Under the RDX’s hood, a 2.0-liter turbo, aluminum-alloy four-cylinder engine produces 272 horsepower. Its linked transmission is a 10-speed auto transmission with SportShift paddle shifters and front-wheel drive. Super-handling all-wheel drive is offered for all trim levels. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC also has a 2.0-liter turbo engine. It is tied to a 9G-Tronic auto transmission and gives you 255 horsepower.
