In this episode, TheStraightPipes take on the 2025 Acura ADX, a vehicle that promises power and performance but falls short in some key areas. With 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque from its 1.5L turbo 4-cylinder engine, the ADX lacks the oomph expected from a brand like Acura. The team dives into the driving experience, critiquing the slow CVT and lackluster acceleration, likening it more to an HRV than a true Acura powerhouse.
Despite its shortcomings in the performance department, the Acura ADX shines in certain aspects. The firm suspension and sporty interior with red ultra suede inserts add a touch of luxury to the otherwise underwhelming driving experience. The team explores the customizable driving modes and top trim features, including heated and cooled seats, lumbar support, and Bang & Olufsen audio system, although the latter fails to impress with its lack of 3D sound technology.
Moving on to the exterior design, the team dissects the Acura ADX's aesthetics, noting its RDX-inspired front end and HRV-like proportions. While the vehicle offers practical features like a power liftgate and Continental ProContact TX tires, its design choices leave something to be desired. The team delves into the trunk space, engine bay, and oil recommendations, drawing comparisons to the HRV and discussing the trade-offs between horsepower and technology features like a 360 camera.
