    If you’re in the market for a new SUV, visiting a W might give you the chance to test one out.

    W Hotels and Acura have teamed up to offer guests at any of their 18 North American properties an MDX experience. Guests who need to get hither and thither will be chauffeured to local spots in the MDX, a luxury SUV with a starting pricetag of $40,195. Given that the MDX holds up to 7 passengers, it’s perfect for families.

    The program will begin on April 1st of this year and run until January 31, 2009.
