2024 Acura ZDX: A New Start for the Japanese Manufacturer
Officially, the ZDX will be the first all-electric vehicle designed by Acura . The former ZDX model, which was pulled from the Acura lineup back in 2013, will be back for the 2024 model-year.
It'll be available in two versions: The Acura ZDX and Acura ZDX Type S, a high-performance variant much like other vehicles Acura offers in the Type S range.
We will have more information on this electric Acura SUV once it's officially unveiled a little later this year. What we already know about this new vehicle is very promising for the electrification of the Acura brand.
Acura ZDX: The Result of a Partnership with General Motors
In its desire to create its first electric vehicle, Acura partnered with General Motors to make it possible to put the ZDX on the market in 2024. As a result, the 2024 ZDX is built using the Ultium battery platform , a GM product.
Since this platform is the result of a few billion dollars' worth of investment and that several vehicles have already been built using it, the platform shouldn't limit Acura in its design of the ZDX.
So it's plausible that the specs of the Acura ZDX, which have not been released yet, are similar to those of a GM electric SUV, like the Blazer.
ZDX SUV: A New, Trendy Design
While the Acura ZDX that the manufacturer put on the market in 2009 was a crossover vehicle with a coupé look, the new ZDX is a much more conventional SUV.
On the level of the design, we notice the manufacturer made several very interesting choices. For example, the ZDX is equipped with a special grille.
At the front of the vehicle, we find an illuminated space with pentagonal shapes , which calls the mind the grille of the manufacturer's latest generation of cars, like the 2023 Acura RDX.
Since the ZDX is an electric vehicle, the grille is purely decorative, but it still gives this SUV a very distinct aesthetics.
The air vents are more subtle and are inserted at the lower end of the car's front, which ensures that all the attention is on the Acura logo that stands proudly in the middle of the grille.
To complete this futuristic style, we also find in the pictures of the 2024 Acura ZDX:
Very thin front and rear lights
A monochrome exterior with a black floating roof
A yoke-style steering wheel instead of a conventional steering wheel
And much more!
The manufacturer is clearly seeking to offer a state-of-the-art experience, inside just as much as outside.
2024 Acura ZDX Type S: A Vehicle Built for Performance
Type S models have been available on the market for many years now. They are Acura vehicles that stand out for their higher performance. For the 2023 model-year, the Type S trim is offered on two cars:
It's already confirmed that the all-new 2024 Acura ZDX will be offered in a Type S version. For this reason, performance connoisseurs will be able to opt for a ZDX that's more adapted to their needs.
We will have to wait until the 2024 ZDX's unveil to know to what extent the ZDX will stand out from the rest, but it's not customary for Acura to offer a Type S model without a significant performance increase.
2024 Acura ZDX: Prices
We will have to wait for more information to be certain about the price at which the 2024 ZDX will be offered by Acura Canada.
For the moment, we can estimate that the price should be around $65,000 , which would put it in the same price range as the Cadillac Lyriq, another luxury SUV built on the Ultium platform.
