Design-wise, the major changes seem to be limited to the front end. We can see through the camouflage that a new grille is definitely part of the facelift. It appears to be a very similar grille to the one on the all-new 2009 TL. We'd guess that new headlights and a revised lower fascia are also in order.

It's not clear if there will be any changes under the hood, but Honda has stated they'd like to offer a V6 diesel in the MDX by 2010 or 2011
