Acura ADX Crossover Will Launch in 2025 as Entry-Level Sub-RDX Model

Following its recent revamp of the MDX and its plans to update its compact RDX later this year, Acura confirmed the launch of another crossover: the ADX. So far, the only official teaser we have is the logo, pictured above. According to Acura, the ADX will debut in “early 2025.”

As far as we know, the new Acura ADX will share its platform and likely powertrains with the Honda Civic Si and Acura Integra. That is, this new small crossover should have a turbocharged engine of 1.5 liters, putting somewhere around 200 horses. While both models are available with a 6-speed manual transmission, its all but certain Acura will only sell the ADX with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).

Currently, the Acura SUV lineup includes the all-electric RDX, MDX and ZDX. What will ADX do to differentiate themselves from their current line? We’ll have to wait a few months to see. When it arrives, the new Acura ADX will compete against the likes of the Audi Q3, BMW X1 and X2 and Lexus UX.

The price is a complete secret, but we can start with the fact that the smallest crossover of the brand will also be the cheapest. The RDX price starts at $45,700, but most ADX rivals come in around $40,000. Acura will likely position this new model competitively against the competition, so the likely entry price could be in the upper $30,000 range.

We should know more about the new Acura ADX in the coming months, including what it will look like. In the meantime, check out our latest video with the new Acura ZDX linked below.
