Specs at a Glance
If you're in the market for a premium compact SUV, come experience the new 2027 Acura ADX. You'll love its impressive everyday utility, powerful turbocharged engine, and outstanding safety ratings. When preparing to shop for a new ADX, some drivers will be deciding between the ADX Base and ADX A-Spec® Advance trims. Let's take a look at how these two trims compare.
Performance
The ADX Base and the ADX A-Spec® Advance share the same powertrain. Motivating the SUV is a 1.5-liter, VTEC turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated at an enjoyable 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. A continuously variable transmission helps optimize fuel economy. While front-wheel drive comes standard, an advanced all-wheel drive system is optional.
Although both trims feature an Integrated Dynamics System (IDS) with various driving modes, the ADX A-Spec® Advance adds an exclusive Individual mode. It allows you to mix and match preferred settings for powertrain responsiveness and steering feel.
Appearance
You'll find the ADX Base is an attractive entry point. It features signature styling cues such as a Diamond Pentagon Grille and premium LED headlights. This base trim rolls on a modern set of 18-inch Pewter Gray metallic alloy wheels with a machine finish, paired with synthetic leatherette-trimmed seating. A standard power tilt-and-slide moonroof is included. Popular exterior colors, such as Crystal Black Pearl and Platinum White Pearl, are also available.
The ADX A-Spec® Advance brings performance-inspired style. Its gloss-black accents and aggressive bodywork make a powerful statement. To give the A-Spec® Advance trim an especially athletic stance, Acura equips it with unique 19-inch Shark Gray metallic alloy wheels. Bright LED fog lights further distinguish this sporty-looking trim. Inside, it features authentic perforated leather-trimmed upholstery, a flat-bottom sport steering wheel, and sporty interior accents that create an even more exciting atmosphere for drivers.
Interior, Technology & Safety Features
Despite being the lineup's entry-level trim, the ADX Base still offers a luxurious driving experience. A 9.0-inch color touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto headlines the list of standard tech features. While an eight-speaker Acura premium sound system keeps music fans entertained, dual-zone automatic climate control helps maximize comfort. Other highlights include a 10.2-inch digital gauge cluster, wireless phone charging, and AcuraWatch safety features.
Acura equips the top-of-the-line ADX A-Spec® Advance with high-end upgrades. Its infotainment system is integrated with Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Google Play Store via Google built-in. When the weather warms up, passengers will especially enjoy the ventilated front sport seats and an expansive one-touch panoramic moonroof. Other perks include a 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium audio system, a 360-degree surround-view camera system, front and rear parking sensors, low-speed braking control, and a heated steering wheel.
