2025 Acura RDX A-Spec Advance Package

The 2025 RDX is Acura's compact luxury SUV, slotting between the smaller ADX and the three-row MDX. It competes with the BMW X3, Audi Q5, and Lexus NX, offering a sportier character than most rivals. The RDX's turbo four pulls eagerly from low revs, and the quick-shifting automatic keeps it responsive in city traffic. Its sharp steering and composed body control make it one of the more engaging compact luxury SUVs to drive. The cabin offers comfortable front seats, a spacious rear seat, and a generous cargo area for its class. Stepping up to the A-Spec Advance Package adds the A-Spec's sporty styling cues plus the Advance Package's tech and comfort upgrades, making it the most feature-rich RDX short of the top Advance Package. The 2.0L I4 makes 272 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, and with the ten-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, it feels quick off the line and sure-footed in corners. This trim's adaptive dampers and sport-tuned suspension give it a firmer ride than other RDX trims, but the payoff is flatter cornering and sharper steering response.
