The 2020 RDX has some key features that the 2020 BMW X3 just can’t compete with. Let’s begin with the price point of each of these vehicles. The MSRP price on a BMW X3 is $41,950, which is $4,350 more than the Acura RDX. The MDX MSRP is $37,600 and has an impressive amount of standard features.
The Acura RDX comes with the Driver Assistance safety standard with its safety system called AcuraWatch. AcuraWatch includes adaptive cruise control, low-speed follow, blind-spot detector, lane-keeping assistant, road departure and collision braking mitigation, and surround-view camera systems.

Interface system standard. Another standard feature on the RDX’s interface is Apple CarPlay integration. The X3 has Apple CarPlay integration with an extra-cost subscription.
Some extra features that make a big difference are power panoramic moonroofs and power driver’s seat. Panoramic moonroofs come standard on an Acura RDX and BMW X3 has panoramic moonroof options available in certain vehicle packages. Both vehicles have power driver’s seat. The RDX comes standard with 12-way seat adjustments with 16-way available and the X3 has standard 10-way.
