2010 Acura ZDX
Jul 20th, 2009 by admin
Following its 2009 New York Auto Show debut, Acura has released the first production images of its forthcoming ZDX crossover. Hailed as a “four-door sports coupe”, the production version of the ZDX will closely follow the design language laid out by its show car counterpart. Look for the 2010 ZDX to hit Acura dealers this winter.
The “four-door coupe” trend quickly spread throughout the luxury sedan segment following the launch of the Mercedes CLS, and it looks as though the ‘CUV coupe’ segment is the next frontier for luxury automakers.
Obviously some of the ZDX Concept’s details have been toned-down, but the production ZDX is, for the most part, staying true to the show car. That ZDX’s radically sloping roofline is the most obvious concept feature to make production, giving the ZDX more or a car look than the BMW X6.
Up front is Acura’s signature front grill with the ZDX’s headlights getting a new look for production.
The ZDX’s interior is very similar to that found in the TL sedan. A navigation screen is mounted high atop the center stack, with plenty of hooding to protect it from outside light. The center stack has the same overall layout as the TL, although it is a bit more sculpted. The ZDX also features Acur’a quad pack gauge cluster.
Power for the ZDX will come from Honda’s 3.7L V6, tuned to produce 300 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. Power will be routed through a six-speed automatic, eventually meeting the pavement at all four corners via Acura’s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive.
The 2010 ZDX will be available in three trim levels — ZDX, ZDX with Technology Package and ZDX with Advace Package. The base model ZDX will come very well equipped — sporting a panoramic glass roof, hand stitched leather, Bluetooth, power tailgate and CD stereo with USB and iPod connectivity. The Technology Package trim level will add voice activated navigation, upgrade stereo and rear-view camera while the Advance Package will up the ante to include a blind spot information system, Collision Mitigating Braking System and Adaptive Cruise Control.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but the 2010 Acura ZDX is expected to begin production this fall, arriving in dealerships during the latter half of 2009.
