The Acura ZDX is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV developed by Japanese manufacturer Honda for its upmarket brand Acura. The first-generation ZDX debuted at the 2009 New York International Auto Show on April 8, 2009, as a 2010 model. The vehicle was the first to be completely designed at Acura's Southern California design studio in Torrance. Lead designer Michelle Christensen labeled it a "4-door luxury sports coupe" due to its sloping rear roofline, and Acura says it "blurs the distinction between coupe, sedan and sport utility vehicle." The ZDX features Acura's first six speed automatic transmission, advanced ventilated seats, as well as other luxury appointments. Although the ZDX shares a similar profile with the Honda Crosstour, the two vehicles are not mechanically related: the latter is based on the Honda Accord, while the ZDX is based on the Honda Pilot/Acura MDX. The ZDX nameplate returned to Acura's lineup in 2024 as the brand's first electric vehicle. It was co-developed with General Motors. In September 2025, Acura announced its discontinuation and planned to introduce the RSX as their electric vehicle offering in 2026.
