Overview
The 2025 Acura ZDX A-Spec AWD marks Acura's electrifying re-entry into the premium SUV game, built on GM's Ultium platform. This A-Spec trim packs a dual-motor all-wheel-drive punch, promising sporty handling with everyday usability. Key goodies include standard Google Built-in and a thumping Bang & Olufsen sound system.

It’s Acura’s big EV statement, aiming to blend luxury with electric zest.
What's New for 2025?
Being a fresh face on the electric scene with its 2024 debut, the 2025 Acura ZDX A-Spec AWD largely carries over its impressive launch spec. Think of it as still having that new-car smell, packed with the latest tech and Acura's sharp design language. Significant overhauls aren't on the cards this year, allowing buyers to get into a cutting-edge EV SUV without worrying about missing out on immediate big updates. It’s all about refining its initial strong offering for this model year.
Design & Exterior
The ZDX A-Spec AWD flaunts Acura's latest edgy design, looking properly futuristic. Up front, the signature Diamond Pentagon grille gets an EV-slick makeover, flanked by striking "Chicane" LED daytime running lights. The A-Spec trim usually dials up the sporty appeal with unique alloy wheels and gloss black accents, giving it a more aggressive stance. It's a sizeable machine, measuring 5022 mm long, 1955 mm wide (excluding mirrors), and 1637 mm tall, promising plenty of road presence. This SUV definitely turns heads with its sharp creases and dynamic profile.
Interior, Tech & Cargo
Inside, the ZDX A-Spec AWD boasts a driver-focused cockpit with a premium feel, typical of Acura. Expect quality materials and a sporty ambiance. Tech-wise, it's loaded: an 11-inch digital driver display and an 11.3-inch central touchscreen powered by Google Built-in, offering seamless navigation and voice assistance, plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Passenger space is generous for five. Cargo is impressive at 840 litres in the boot, expanding to a massive 1785 litres with seats down. Shame there’s no frunk, but the boot is huge!
Performance & Driving Experience
The A-Spec AWD is no slouch, rocketing from 0-100 km/h in a brisk 5.6 seconds! Its dual Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors churn out a potent 365 kW and 592 Nm of torque, delivering instant thrust to all four wheels for superb traction. Acura promises engaging driving dynamics, blending sporty responses with a comfortable ride suitable for daily duties. Expect configurable regenerative braking modes, likely including a proper one-pedal driving option for effortless city cruising and maximising that precious range. It’s quick, grippy, and refined.
Range, Battery & Charging
Powering the ZDX A-Spec AWD is a substantial 102 kWh usable battery pack, delivering a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of around 465 km – pretty decent for a big SUV! Efficiency is rated at 4.56 km/kWh. For charging, it accepts up to 11.5 kW on AC, meaning an overnight top-up. Find a powerful DC fast charger, and it’ll guzzle electrons at up to 190 kW, getting you back on the road quickly. For European users, it would utilize a CCS Type 2 port. Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability is also anticipated.
Safety & Driver-Assistance Features
While a Euro NCAP rating is yet to be confirmed, the ZDX A-Spec AWD achieved a top 5-star rating from NHTSA in the US. It comes loaded with AcuraWatch™, Acura’s comprehensive suite of safety and driver-assist technologies. This typically includes standard features like Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Lane Keeping Assist, Road Departure Mitigation, Blind Spot Information, and Rear Cross Traffic Monitor. Higher trims sometimes get features like a 360-degree camera and Head-Up Display, often standard on A-Spec models. Peace of mind comes standard.
Warranty & Maintenance Coverage
Buyers can expect robust warranty coverage, typically aligning with Acura's premium standards. This would likely include a comprehensive vehicle warranty of around 4 years/80,000 km and a crucial EV battery warranty of at least 8 years/160,000 km, covering against significant degradation. Powertrain components often get extended coverage too. Some markets might also benefit from complimentary maintenance for the first few years. Acuras are known for reliability, and an EV powertrain usually means lower maintenance needs, which is always a Brucie bonus!
