Acura to launch its first electric SUV ZDX in 2024.
The ZDX will be Acura's first zero-emissions SUV, and the name pays homage to a previous Acura model of the same name.
Luxury and performance car maker Acura announced that it would launch its first all-new fully-electric SUV in 2024. The SUV will be called Acura ZDX. The company will also launch a ZDX Type S variant that focuses more on the driver’s experience.
The ZDX will feature many styling themes of the new Precision EV Concept. Acura is co-developing this electric SUV with GM. The company will also launch additional EV models starting in 2026 based on the company’s own global e:Architecture.
The ZDX will be Acura’s first zero-emissions SUV, and the name pays homage to a previous model of the same name, which was the first vehicle styled from the ground up in the Acura Design Studio which opened in Los Angeles in 2007. The new ZDX is now being styled in the same Design Studio.
Emile Korkor, assistant vice president of Acura National Sales, said: The ZDX represents the start to what will be an accelerated path toward electrification by the end of the decade and the key role the brand will play in our company’s global goal to achieve carbon neutrality in 2050. The company will remain focused on performance in the electrified era and Type S will continue to represent the pinnacle of this direction.
