In an acknowledgement of what it the world’s fastest growing and arguably largest segment, Honda Motor (China) Investment, today presented the world premiere of the all-new Acura CDX compact SUV at Auto China 2016 in Beijing. CDX will come with a 1.5-liter turbocharged, four-cylinder engine and an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, in front- and all-wheel-drive versions.
The Acura version will be stateside at some point AutoInformed opines, even though Honda claims this is a crossover mostly for the Chinese market.
Acura CDX will be made at the ZengCheng Plant located in Guangzhou City. It goes on sale in July through a sales subsidiary of Guangqi Honda which was established in December of 2015.
This will be the first Acura model to be produced locally in China. Few technical details were release, but it will no doubt be a crossover derivative / cousin of the Honda CRX, a Top Ten Seller in the U.S. ,and itself a derivative of the Best Selling Honda Civic.
