Product Overview

Acura ZDX is a mid-size crossover in production from 2009 to 2013. It was powered by a 3.7L naturally-aspirated V6 engine that drives all four wheels via a 6-speed automatic transmission.
The ZDX has a rather strange look for its time, though it has since been joined by a range of "coupe" crossovers from Europe that offer horrible interior space and questionable exterior design. The concept was such a failure that Acura had to discontinue the line after one generation without attempting to give it a facelift.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Acura ZDX uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
