Acura Reveals 2025 ADX with Early Next Year Launch and Mid-$30K Price

Acura’s RDX has steadily grown in size over time, pushing its price closer to the $50,000 mark. This price increase has created room for a more compact alternative in Acura’s lineup: the 2025 ADX. Unveiled Thursday and expected in showrooms early next year, the ADX offers a more affordable option for those wanting Acura’s signature style and performance in a smaller crossover package.

Though Acura has not yet revealed full pricing details for the ADX, the brand expects the starting price to fall in the mid-$30,000 range. This positions it slightly above the Integra compact hatchback, which shares its platform. At 185.8 inches long, the ADX is just 1.6 inches shorter than the RDX, putting it in a competitive spot within the premium compact crossover market.

For everyday usability, the ADX provides 24.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, which expands to 55.1 cubic feet when those seats are folded down. A power tailgate with automatic closing functionality makes loading and unloading gear simple. Designed with efficiency in mind, the ADX strikes a balance between offering ample space and easy maneuverability, making it an attractive option for those seeking a versatile crossover.

Under the hood, the ADX features a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine paired with a CVT and standard all-wheel drive. This system can send up to 50% of torque to the rear wheels for added stability. Although Acura hasn’t yet released official horsepower figures, the same engine in the Integra delivers 200 hp. A more performance-focused ADX Type S is expected to join the lineup in the future, expanding Acura’s Type S offerings.

Although the ADX marks a new chapter in the U.S. market, it’s not Acura’s first foray into compact crossovers. From 2016 to 2022, the brand offered the CDX in China, though it never made it to the States. Now, the ADX brings Acura’s compact crossover vision to the U.S., offering a stylish and practical alternative for drivers seeking a compact, urban-friendly vehicle.
