MONTECITO, Calif. – The 2025 Acura ZDX not only looks like an Acura, but it’s arguably one of the best-looking Acuras ever. If we’re talking SUVs, what’s going to topple it from the podium? The original ZDX? Beneath that skin, however, it’s no secret that the new ZDX rides on General Motors’ Ultium electric platform, has an interior constructed with General Motors parts, and is even built by General Motors in Tennessee.
It boasts 499 horsepower and a Lyriq-smoking 544 lb-ft. Its range falls to 278 miles, but that’s still far better than the majority of electric vehicles, let alone high-performance ones. The 429-hp Genesis GV60 Performance can only eke out 235.The maximum DC fast-charging rate is 190 kilowatts, which is quick but ultimately average, especially in the luxury realm.
What I do know is acceleration is just as vigorous as you’d expect from the 499 horses provided by the Type S, which was unfortunately the only version on hand to test. It smacks you in the chest in a way that an MDX certainly won’t. Like other EVs, artificial noises are piped through the sound system, but they’re better than most. More noise emanates from the rear, in keeping with more power literally coming from the rear.
Which is good because changing the drive modes is a pain. No, not because they’re buried in a touchscreen, but because the “MODE” toggle button is buried down by your left knee next to buttons for suspension height adjustment, Auto Hold, lane-keeping and the parking brake. They’re an afterthought, and frankly, that’s a decent way to summarize the entire cabin.
