2010 Acura ZDX
Acura has announced their latest production car, Acura ZDX. Its new four-door, luxury crossover “coupe” that is clearly aimed at the similarly proportioned BMW X6. It will be powered by a 3.7-liter V6 engine producing 300-hp from the MDX and RL. But in the ZDX will have a six-speed automatic transmission, a first for Honda/Acura. Paddle shifters will allow manual overrides. All-wheel drive is standard, as are 19-inch allow wheels–the largest standard wheel in Acura’s lineup. The interior will seat up to five passengers, with the ability for the rear seat to fold to extend the cargo space. The ZDX will also have an under-floor storage area.
The MDX-based ZDX will come in three trim levels: base, Technology Package, and Advance Package. All models will come with a panoramic glass roof, leather interior, Bluetooth, power tailgate, and AM/FM/XM/CD stereo with USB and iPod integration. The Technology Package adds a navigation system, surround sound, and rearview camera. The Advance Package features a blind-spot information system, a collision avoidance system, and adaptive cruise control.
Pricing has not yet been announced. However, Acura has said the ZDX will be positioned between the MDX SUV and the RL luxury sedan, putting the price in the mid $40s. The ZDX will hit dealerships this fall.
