If you've been shopping for a three-row SUV and wondering, "Does the Acura MDX have a 3rd row?", the team at McGrath Acura of Westmont has good news: yes, it does, and it comes standard across every 2026 Acura MDX trim. Here’s everything you need to know about this model’s roominess.

Standard Three-Row Seating Across All Trims

Unlike some competitors that reserve third-row seating for higher packages, the 2026 Acura MDX includes it from the base trim all the way up to the Acura MDX Type S Advance. Every configuration seats up to seven passengers, and the third row folds in a 50/50 split when you need to reclaim cargo space.

What the Third Row Actually Offers

Third-row passengers get 36.2 inches of headroom and 29.1 inches of legroom. This amount of room is comfortable both for kids and adult passengers. Shoulder room comes in at 55.2 inches, giving the row a bit more breathing space than you might expect.

Getting to the Third Row

Access is handled by a One-Touch Smart Slide Walk-In on the second row, making it easier for passengers to get back without an awkward climb. The second row also features a removable middle seat, giving you flexibility to configure the cabin based on how many people or how much gear you're carrying.
