Acura recently unveiled the pricing for its latest addition—the 2025 ADX—marking its foray into the small crossover SUV market. Priced at $36,350 (which includes a $1,350 destination charge), the ADX emerges as the most wallet-friendly option among Acura’s crossover lineup, significantly undercutting the larger RDX by nearly $9,700. For those eyeing a more affordable entry into the Acura brand, it’s important to know that the base model 2025 Acura Integra hatchback starts at $34,195 with destination, offering another appealing choice.
When you step inside the ADX, you’ll find a well-equipped cabin featuring a sunroof, dual-zone climate control for those hot summer days, heated front seats to keep you cozy during the winter, rear air conditioning vents for rear passengers’ comfort, a power tailgate for easy loading and unloading, and stylish 18-inch wheels. The tech setup doesn’t skimp either, offering a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster and a vibrant 9.0-inch touchscreen. Plus, with standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, you can effortlessly stay connected on the go, and the wireless device charging is a nice touch that cuts out the hassle of tangled cords.
For those who want to elevate their driving experience, the ADX A-Spec model—priced at $39,350—adds a range of luxury features. Enjoy cooled front seats to beat the heat, a panoramic sunroof to let in that beautiful sunlight, and ambient lighting that sets the perfect mood during night drives. This trim also boasts sporty design elements like a flat-bottom steering wheel, stainless steel pedals, a chrome shift knob, and plush suede seat inserts with sharp red contrast stitching that gives the ADX an edge.
If you’re searching for the ultimate in luxury, the A-Spec with the Advance Package comes in at $43,350. This version of the ADX takes things up a notch with sophisticated black 19-inch wheels, built-in Google apps complete with a three-year data plan, a heated steering wheel to ensure comfort on chilly days, a surround-view camera system for added safety, and a 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system that will turn your daily drive into a concert experience.
Designed on the same platform as the Honda HR-V but measuring 6.0 inches longer at 185.8 inches, the ADX has a bit more room to offer. Most of this additional length is in the front and rear, while both models share a 104.5-inch wheelbase, which means more cargo space for your weekend adventures or trips to the grocery store. Under the hood, the ADX houses a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, replacing the HR-V’s naturally aspirated 2.0-liter engine. While Acura has yet to release the horsepower figures, it’s anticipated that the ADX will exceed the HR-V’s 158 hp, providing a lively driving experience.
It’s important to note that the ADX, like the HR-V, features a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Front-wheel drive is standard, but if you’re someone who likes extra traction during winter months or on rough terrain, all-wheel drive is available as an option for an additional $2,000 across all trims.
Manufactured in Mexico, the ADX is set to hit U.S. dealerships this spring, making it an exciting new competitor in the flourishing segment of prestige-brand subcompact crossovers. With rivals like the Audi Q3, BMW X1/X2, Lexus UX, Lincoln Corsair, and Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class already in the market, the ADX positions itself as a strong contender, combining Acura’s signature luxury with practicality at a more accessible price point. Rest assured, whether you’re commuting to work, taking the kids to school, or heading out on a weekend road trip, the ADX promises to meet your needs while delivering that distinct touch of Acura sophistication.
