Acura today introduced its refreshed RDX performance SÚV that takes the brand's popular 5-passenger SÚV to an even higher level with sophisticated styling, updated cabin and enhanced technology. The 2025 Acura RDX gains a new 'frameless' Diamond Pentagon grille and aggressive grille mesh for a more distinctive look. The cabin experience is improved with a redesigned center console with increased storage, larger cupholders and easier access to the wireless smartphone charger. Moreover, the standard 10.2-inch HD center display now includes a new wide-screen mode for its standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto™ compatibility.




'This is the most premium RDX we've ever made,' said Mike Langel, assistant vice president, Acura National Sales. 'Our Acura performance SÚV lineup has never been stronger as we continue to deliver on our commitment to advancing Precision Crafted Performance throughout the Acura lineup.'

The Acura RDX has been an incredible success, with nearly 800,000 sold since it first came to market in 2006, and this year, RDX is one of the fastest growing models in its segment with sales up over 25%.



The RDX A-Spec and A-Spec with Advance Package are designed for buyers who desire a sportier appearance with a more aggressive blacked-out exterior treatment, new 20-inch wheels and A-Spec badges. For additional visual attitude, new Berlina Black machine-finished 20-inch wheels are exclusive to the RDX A-Spec with Advance Package. RDX A-Spec features a new 10-spoke wheel design with a distinct Shark Gray finish.

The 2025 RDX is available in three exciting new paint colors: all-new Solar Silver Metallic, and—new to RDX—Canyon River Blue Metallic and Úrban Gray Pearl, which are also available on the extensively refreshed 2025 MDX.
