Discover Acura’s Integrated Dynamics System (IDS) at Acura Montreal Centre

In a world where automotive technology evolves at lightning speed, Acura continues to push boundaries with innovations designed to deliver an exceptional driving experience. One of the most impressive of these is the Integrated Dynamics System (IDS). At Acura Montreal Centre, we’re proud to present this technology that redefines how you interact with your vehicle—whether you're navigating downtown traffic, cruising the Metropolitan Highway, or heading out for a weekend escape in the Laurentians.

IDS: Tailored driving at every moment


Acura’s Integrated Dynamics System lets drivers customize their vehicle's settings based on their preferences or road conditions. This isn’t just a gimmick—it’s real technology that impacts your comfort, vehicle responsiveness, and overall driving pleasure.

Using the IDS selector, you can choose from various drive modes:

  • Comfort: for a smooth, relaxed ride.

  • Normal: for a perfect balance of performance and efficiency.

  • Sport: for sharper acceleration and firmer steering.

  • Sport+ (available on select models like the TLX Type S): for a more dynamic, performance-inspired drive.

A smart solution for Montreal drivers


Driving in Montreal isn’t always a joyride. Between potholes, construction detours, icy slopes on Mount Royal in winter, and rush-hour gridlock, flexibility is essential.

That’s where IDS shines. It adapts to real Montreal conditions:

  • In winter, switch to Comfort mode to soften the vehicle’s responses, reduce the risk of skidding, and maintain smooth driving.

  • Downtown, you’ll enjoy superior comfort and lighter steering.

  • On highways like the 15 or the 40, Sport mode gives you quicker acceleration and safer passing power.

  • Heading to Saint-Sauveur? Sport+ mode turns your Acura into a luxurious performance car.

No matter your lifestyle or neighborhood—Plateau, Griffintown, Ahuntsic, or the North Shore—you now have the power to shape your driving experience.


IDS: Technology working for your comfort


IDS doesn’t work alone—it’s part of Acura’s complete tech ecosystem, which includes:

  • SH-AWD® (Super Handling All-Wheel Drive): for enhanced traction and stability in all conditions

  • True Touchpad Interface™: an intuitive touchpad for easy multimedia and navigation control

  • Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™: for seamless smartphone integration

  • Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS): including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and more

Together, these technologies create a synergy that places Acura among the most advanced luxury brands in intelligent design.

Performance meets eco-conscious driving


Many Greater Montreal drivers today want a vehicle that offers both performance and environmental awareness. Good news: IDS can help reduce fuel consumption.

In Comfort or Normal modes, your Acura favors smoother, less energy-intensive driving. The result?

  • Lower fuel use in the city

  • Less mechanical stress

  • Fewer emissions—especially when paired with efficient turbo engines or hybrid powertrains

For example, the popular MDX and RDX models use optimized engines that adapt to your driving style through IDS.
