The updated 2025 Acura RDX compact crossover experiences a slight price rise of $300 on all variants except the base model, as announced by Acura on Tuesday. The premium automaker’s top seller now begins at $46,050, inclusive of the $1,350 destination charge.
The subtle modifications correspond with the minor price increment. The striking grille design presents a frameless aesthetic featuring a mesh interior. The standard 19-inch wheels showcase new designs, and some fresh colors diversify the selection, although the silver and gray options may lack vibrancy.
Inside, Acura has redesigned the center console for improved storage, and accessing the wireless phone charging pad is reportedly simpler than before. A dual-pad system remains in the console to control the functions in the 10.2-inch center display, but now Apple CarPlay and Android Auto can utilize the full width of the screen.
Each 2025 Acura RDX is powered by a 272-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. A 10-speed automatic transmission delivers power to all four wheels, providing standard all-wheel drive. It achieves an estimated 23 mpg combined.
Acura outfits the 2025 RDX with a collection of driver-assist technologies, including automatic emergency braking, active lane keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring, among various others.
The $46,050 RDX features 19-inch alloy wheels, synthetic leather seating, a 10.2-inch display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and heated power front seats. The 4-year/50,000-mile warranty covers the first 24 months of essential maintenance.
The $48,650 RDX equipped with the Technology Package offers additional ambient lighting, leather-appointed sport seats, navigation, parking sensors, low-speed emergency braking, and little else. The A-Spec model encompasses desirable traits with a 3D audio system, aluminum dashboard trim, a flat-bottom steering wheel, cooled front seats, and black exterior accents, priced at $51,650.
The RDX Advance Package ($53,800) and the A-Spec with Advance ($55,800) include full leather seating, enhanced ambient lighting, brushed speaker grilles, 16-way power front seating, adaptive dampers, heated rear outboard seating, and a heated steering wheel.
