SHERIDAN, WYOMING – August 13, 2024 – Acura announced the arrival of the refreshed 2025 RDX, a luxury compact SUV that builds upon the brand's commitment to "Precision Crafted Performance." The latest iteration of the popular RDX showcases a refined exterior design, an upgraded interior ambiance, and enhanced technological features, further solidifying its position in the competitive SUV market.
Exterior Refinements: Striking and Sporty
The 2025 RDX embraces Acura's evolving design language with a bold, "frameless" Diamond Pentagon grille and a more assertive grille mesh. This distinctive new look is complemented by premium gloss-black exterior accents on the standard model and sportier wheel designs across all trims. The Advance Package and A-Spec models receive additional exterior enhancements, including exclusive body-color lower trim and redesigned wheels, further amplifying their visual appeal. Acura is also introducing three new captivating exterior colors to the RDX palette: Solar Silver Metallic, Canyon River Blue Metallic, and Urban Gray Pearl.
Interior Enhancements: Luxurious and Intuitive
The interior of the 2025 RDX has been thoughtfully refined to provide an even more luxurious and user-friendly experience. A redesigned center console enhances both aesthetics and functionality, with increased storage, larger cupholders, and easier access to the wireless smartphone charger. The standard 10.2-inch HD center display now features a new wide-screen mode for seamless integration with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, ensuring effortless connectivity on the go.
The RDX with Advance Package and A-Spec with Advance Package models take luxury to the next level, offering full-leather upholstery, additional ambient lighting, and dramatically illuminated speaker cones, creating a truly premium ambiance.
Performance and Safety: The Acura Hallmark
The 2025 RDX continues to impress with its dynamic performance, thanks to its turbocharged 2.0-liter VTEC® 4-cylinder engine generating 272 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque. Acura's renowned Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®) system with true torque vectoring provides exceptional agility and control, while the standard AcuraWatch™ suite of advanced safety and driver-assistive technologies ensures peace of mind for all occupants.
