  • i wonder if the new NSX can do this too :)

  • I got an MDX and live in Canada. I'd have to wait a whole year and hope the snow plows didn't do their job before I woke up to enjoy half of these conditions they just showed...

  • Yes only Minnesota. We will survive a Ice Age with no problem. LOL

  • only in minnesota!!!

  • Acura=Honda 

  • drifting

    

  • also is ja lustig

  • Im looking to purchase an 08 Acura Type S and i live in Quebec,Canada. How will the car perform in the harsh Canadian winter? will the FWD be a hassle to drive?

  • I just wonder what would be a better car, the new FX35/50 or the MDX, somehow i like the MDX a lot, but I dont know WHY!

  • Incredible!

  • I think the cars are amazing!

  • Test is nice , cars are ugly , very ugly too much visual distraction inside out .

  • Niiice

  • lol since when water vaporizes at -30 C ?????

  • -30 C? it's normal winter

  • @ksnovak lol yeah

  • 3:50 "all kinds of interesting tests" like drifting :D

  • Acura rules

  • They need to be covered in snow, ugly ass cars.

  • @BenFranklin997 You sure love talking shit about acuras

  • I LOVE MY 2011 ACURA TL SH-AWD!!

  • Just bought my Acura MDX 2011 Black on Black with Tech and I LOVE IT!!!!

  • when they are "testing" on snow, they are just messing around haha

  • When they bring the best (infiniti)to judge against they are serious

  • -40 celsuis??? welcome to Ottawa, Canada

  • Why didn't they include the RDX?...is that SHAWD system different than the MDX & ZDX? If so, how does it differ...thanks!!!

  • I live in Baudette, and I'm sick of winter.

  • Hi Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!1

  • How long has Acura being doing these test?

  • @stangtrax Honda announced the SH-AWD 7 years ago and released the first of those systems in 2005 in the Acura RL, as it was already good enough for street use. that means they've been testing and polishing it for more than 7 years now. (they also had active torque distribution on the front-wheel drive Honda Prelude since 1997)

    Honda has by far the most engineering experience (cars, motorbikes, generators, boat motors, planes, robots and lots of crazy experimental stuff)

  • @KilluaXIII

    hahahhahhaahahhahahahahahahaha­ah have you seen the new Civic? Where is their 50 MPG hybrid? Where is their V-8? Their RWD? Their direct injection? Their dual clutch? Their 500hp cars? Their V-12s?

    They are ghey, for dumb fanbois that think fun is 40 lbs of torque

  • @BenFranklin997 the new civic is trash, true. honda hybrids all do better than 50mpg in real life. v8 are overrated. their rwd are S2000 and NSX among (older) others. dual clutch is trash (tho they have it on the VFR). honda iVTEC-i engines have direct injection. 500hp can be unnecessary and even bad depending on the weight, consume too much fuel and need big heavy engines to be produced. v12 are for idiots with too much money and small dicks

  • I bought an Acura MDX for my family suv to to be safe in ,because it has great rateings. Now seeing this video makes me feel a lot better. How long has Acura been doing these test?

  • Even my tsx with front wheel drive is very good at traction even when going uphill. I've never had an issue in the two years I've owned it. And it doesn't even have the sh-awd that those acuras have

  • He drove the car through some puddles and a few inches of snow. What a blowhard.

  • i want this job!!!  wow, i neverthought about this, but acuras might be good for off roading in the snow

  • i cant believe that i heard about acura from south park

  • @MultiFagman that was a funny video

  • i want a job driving these cars on that course!

  • whoopty doo!

  • man i love the zdx, i saw one the other day, beautiful

  • I wanna work here

  • -40 is that all really? In Canada we aren't really complaining till it has hit -50 or colder.

  • @codymiller1994 this is america not canada. deal with it

  • @MrSharpAss So you are admitting to being a pussy to the cold?

  • @codymiller1994 no, and yes I answered your question and the answer is no, it's so stupid of you to say that without any basis at all. and your comment doesn't have anything to do with the fucking video, go watch some other video that's related to your comment I guess your "retardedness" drove you here, your lost. go back to your momma's pussy and come back for another try FAGGOT

  • @MrSharpAss So the video talks about putting vehicles in -40 temperatures and that is cold but yet my comment has nothing to do with the video? Explain that to me please.

  • @codymiller1994 your comment makes no sense to the video at all, THE VIDEO IS AN ACURA COMMERCIAL, ABOUT THE ACURA BEING OUT IN A COLD TEMPERATURE NOT A GUY COMPLAINING ABOUT THE COLD and yet your comment is about a guy complaining and he's not even complaining he's just saying, get it? I explained it to you because I guess your too stupid to do it yourself. your stupidity amazes me

  • @codymiller1994 your comment is about canadians not complaining about the cold till i hits -50 and americans complaining about the cold. DID YOU MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT THE FUCKING CAR? NO! you only mentionED CANADIANS and a TEMPERATURE...so no your comment doesn't make sense at all.

  • @MrSharpAss It was to show perspective on what is considered cold. I was pointing out that if trying to show an extreme test that -40 isn't very cold. Also the guy in the video complained about being cold. The comment has lots of relevance. Are you smart enough to figure out what relevance means or should I grab you a dictionary?

  • @codymiller1994 excuse me but your comment doesn't include the CAR, but CANADIANS and AMERICANS complaining about the cold, second thing he is not complaining about the cold! he is just stating that it's cold! get the difference? I guess not cuz your too stupid to. THIRD THING! DUH! not all people around the world experience the same TEMPERATURE as CANADIANS! seriously? you don't know this? it's called COMMON SENSE!. people around the world experience different colds so deal with it!

  • @codymiller1994 and don't try boasting about canadians that they "can handle -50" cuz I think canadians can't also handle the heat in ASIA or america. so don't try to make your country cool by saying "they can handle extreme cold" cuz they can't handle extreme heat as well. you don't need to grab me a dictionary cuz your too stupid to grab one.

  • @MrSharpAss You realize Canadians feel 144 temperature difference in some cases between our summers and our winters. -58F to 86F

  • @codymiller1994 yeah that's right use your common sense. 2nd thing I don't give a fuck about canadians.

  • @MrSharpAss Yes because bankrupt, nationalist, Americans. Gotta love them.

    Just in case you idiot American can't figure it out, that was sarcasm.

  • @codymiller1994 sarcasm? you can't lie to me, dumbfuck...

  • @MrSharpAss Wow you truly don't understand sarcasm. I meant the "gotta love them" part was sarcasm. You truly are a fucking idiot.

  • @codymiller1994 a 144 degree temperature difference does not guarantee you can withstand the 115 degree plus furnace like temps of southern california or texas during the summer. i prefer the mild climate of san francisco over extreme heat or cold though.

    :)

  • it isn't an Infinity FX at 3:40?

  • the acura's current new design exterior is kinda of a distaste for me, however it's interior and handling is excellent and amazing.

  • can i go

  • wow great video i want that guys job. imagine getting payed top dollar to drive an ACURA. and i like the acura designs on some cars like the TL is the one car thats redesigned that pisses me off cuz it looks soooo ugly and messy. other then that the MDX looks real nice i am alittle disappointed their was no TSX shown on this video thats my favorite car they sell right now and hope to buy it one day. but question when driving on snow your suppose to have VSA on?

  • the zdx is so sexi ass hell

  • OMG!!! My eyes! Disgusting design, can sell only in USA

  • Face it, snow testing wont change their "beautiful" designs.

  • Watching this makes me wanna trade my Lexus for an Acura.

  • they should have brought in the little Acura RDX for this test too.

  • acura makes smooth and soft cars

  • Looks like a great place to go boarding thou :D

  • @savory68 No...its actually not.

  • that's y honda is d best!!!

  • i kinda wanna see my 03 TL-s try some of the stuff here(with some good tires). oh and love the J-series sound at 4:22 .

  • i kinda wanna see my 03 TL-s try some of the stuff here(with some good tires). oh and love the J-series sound at 4:22 .

  • i kinda wanna see my 03 TL-s try some of the stuff here.

  • my garage is colder than the meat locker in January.

  • ZDX just grew on me....i want one

  • love acura .. but hate the new designs..!

  • I WANT TO GO THERE! GOSH ACURA ENGINEERS ARE LUCKY!

  • Acura is the best car company that ever existed !!! but yes, i have to admit the new model does look a litle fishy !!! i like the older ones like the one im racing... 1991-1998

  • Ppl listen he even said they were comparing how the fx and zdx feel in that course.

  • Comment removed

  • Is that an Infiniti at 3:43?

  • haha that looks like sooo much fun!!!!

  • Infiniti FX at 3:40-3:43 on an Acura test course?

  • giv the cars thicker tires and i'll think they would do alot better

  • Good video:) i love acura...

  • SH-AWD is better than QUATTRO

  • @Tribubikingteam Only says how little you know about 4wd systems

  • @Tribubikingteam uhhh... HELL NO. Quattro>SH-AWD and will always be. Nice try though, Acura.

  • Comment removed

  • @WoZIMoo If Quatro is better why is Audi trying to copy the torque vectoring system that Acura uses as a replacement for Quatro?

  • make it drift with a clutch kick w/out the t/c off

  • lol ZR1 PWNSS this car SOOO BAD

  • @metalman1193 well this is a family suv, and the ZR1 is a sports car -__-.

  • GAH! If only they kept the old TL's shape, that was a sex on wheels car back then. But the new doesnt even compare to it

  • I had no idea these White power love ZR1 over GTR Motor Trend actually went to see what Honda is up to. Hmm... Maybe Motor Trend is not White nationalistic?

  • i wonder if GM does this kind of testing?

  • @rsxzx6r i think so, don't know if it is as intense as the Acura testing

  • a Subaru can make it up a hill with only one wheel having traction.

  • Петр ильич чайковский вальс цветов из балета ЩЕЛКУНЧИК

  • I have a better idea for winter testing; take it to Fairbanks AK where the cold is free

  • "blood that minnesota" LOLOL

  • im not a fan of acuras but i have to admire their SH-AWD system

  • @AlternativeUses I underestimated them at first, but I now see that Acura is one of the greatest Manufacturers.

  • @demonicreborn Honda baby! Nothing but the best!

  • @demonicreborn because its Japanese xD

  • Finally, the Sport in Sport utility made sense. Nice snow drifting.

  • imo id rather have the zdx than the fx35

  • honda's sh-awd system is very good.

  • coool vid... but acura gets uglier and uglier every year.

  • aw yes this is what we do when I go skiing. good times.

  • What can I say, I'm impressed.

    Even if this is one big 8-minute advertisement, there's nothing I can find wrong with it; living in MA it actually makes me want one..
