Auto review: 2025 Acura ADX hits the ground running

Acura has ramped up its styling game with a whole host of refreshes to the existing fleet, as well as with the recent addition of the ZDX electric SUV. This week, we review the 2025 Acura ADX, Acura’s newest release in the compact SUV category.

This five-passenger “Integra-like” gateway SUV does everything right, and the price will blow you away. Its entry-level yet still upscale and hip SUV styling is what sets it apart from the body-similar Honda HR-V. Acura started with some basic HR-V styling, added some flare with an Integra-like interior, and boom, the ADX was born.

The 2025 Acura ADX boasts a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 190 horsepower and 179 pound-feet of torque.

With a small array of exterior color options, the ADX is focusing on young and hip consumers who are looking for affordability, luxury, style and comfort while ensuring there is ample interior space for storage, luggage and shopping.

Acura has definitely appealed found its market. With just two months worth of data logged, the ADX has captured 20% of its market segment.

Acura is a favorite in Grasso’s Garage, as I have owned just about every model the company has released between 2006 and 2014. This technology-focused brand delivers styling and luxury while not compromising on power or comfort. The 2025 ADX is a great addition to Acura's already stellar lineup.
