Built from an electric vehicle platform with a flexible battery architecture, a low center of gravity and near 50/50 weight distribution, the all-electric ZDX expands Acura’s lineup of premium, performance SUVs. ZDX A-Spec is powered by a rear-mounted single-motor producing an estimated 340 horsepower; ZDX A-Spec is also available dual-motor, all-wheel drive configuration. There is a multi-link front and rear suspension on both.

The Acura ZDX Type S is focused on performance with better acceleration, braking and turning. “ZDX Type S will define Acura performance for the electrified era with a height adjustable air suspension, performance-tuned adaptive dampers and 15.6-inch Brembo™ front brakes with 6-piston yellow calipers. Drivers can customize the ride with multiple drive modes, including a Sport mode for maximum acceleration and response. The S model has 22-inch machine-finished wheels, the largest ever for an Acura model, and wider 275/40ZR22 self-sealing tires. Optional are high-performance summer tires, packaged with a gloss-black wheel.
