2026 Acura ADX A-Spec

The 2026 Acura ADX is a new compact SUV slotting below the RDX, sized to take on the BMW X1 and Audi Q3. The ADX handles with the eager, precise feel Acura is known for, and its turbo engine pulls strongly from low revs. The ride is firm and controlled, which sharpens cornering but means you'll feel rougher pavement more than in some rivals. Inside, the ADX offers a modern cabin with supportive seats and a straightforward layout, though rear legroom is tight for the class. Standard equipment includes a touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus the AcuraWatch safety suite. The A-Spec gives you the sporty exterior and interior packages along with the option of front-wheel drive, which saves a few thousand dollars over the A-Spec Advance Package's standard all-wheel drive. Under the hood is a 1.5L I4 with 190 horsepower routed through a CVT and standard all-wheel drive, good for 28 mpg combined and a quick-witted response in Sport mode. The A-Spec's heated and ventilated leatherette front seats and 19-inch Shark Gray wheels are exclusive to this trim, setting it apart visually from the Base ADX.
