The 2018 Ford Escape has the road manners of another kind of car—but don't worry, it still works well as a crossover.

Pros
Tough-hatch lines
Ample cargo bin
Wonderfully taut handling
Tech options aplenty
Brisk 2.0-liter acceleration

Busy, space-robbing dash

The first car of Guangzhou Automobile Acura officially listed, this is Acura CDX, a small SUV. And Mercedes-Benz GLA, BMW X2, Audi Q3 and Infiniti QX30 and other models, belong to the same level.

As a luxury compact SUV, the Guangzhou Automobile Acura CDX is facing competition from models including BMW X1, Mercedes-Benz GLA, Audi Q3 and Infiniti QX30. On the product alone, Acura CDX product competitiveness is sufficient, but the brand is still a disadvantage for Acura CDX, at least not compete with the same level of BBA, therefore, Acura CDX want to make a difference in the market, it is estimated that Need more effort.
