Do you just lie or have reading comprehension problem?

Here is the direct quote from the article you cited from the introduction of then new 2013 RDX (V6 with 275hp but without SH-AWD) vs. the previous generation RDX (I4 turbo with 240hp but with SH-AWD):
"Figure-eight numbers were a bit slower and lower than the turbo RDX with SH-AWD, at 27.8 seconds at 0.58 average g with a 0.77 lateral g, compared with 27.7 seconds at 0.62 average g and a 0.83 lateral g."
How is 0.77g even comparable to 0.83g? What you call "alphabetical soup," and what everyone else can see as your sour grapes, obviously works!
As for Encore's power deficit, that's the intrinsic problem of the econobox. The only way you can upgrade it to have 290hp, handle with the kind of lateral g's like SH-AWD (mid-0.8 range, comparable or better than the new Mustang!), and also get the utility, performance and amenity of an MDX out an Encore, is trading it in on the MDX. LOL. Pretty simple stuff, I'm sure even you can understand.
