Design of the Acura ADX 2025
The ADX 2025 features a modern and elegant exterior design, in line with Acura’s visual identity. The frameless pentagonal diamond grille, signature of the brand, gives it a look specific to the brand. Sculpted fenders and flowing lines contribute to a dynamic profile. The chicane-shaped LED daytime running lights, a unique design element, add a differentiating touch and improve visibility.
Motorization of the Acura ADX 2025
Under the hood, the ADX 2025 is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged VTEC engine. This engine based on the Acura Integra should develop around 200 horsepower for a torque of 192 lb-ft, but this remains to be confirmed. It is associated with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
For better handling, especially on slippery surfaces, an all-wheel drive system is available in all versions. This system can transfer up to 50% of torque to the rear wheels depending on driving conditions.
