WELCOME TO AN ELECTRIFIED ERA
The next evolution of Precision Crafted Performance™ is here, beginning with the all-new, all-electric
ZDX A-SPEC™ and ZDX Type S™. Discover how easily Acura’s first electric vehicle (EV) can seamlessly fit into your lifestyle with a driver-focused experience featuring premium amenities and intuitive tech.
WHY DRIVE A ZDX?
The all-electric ZDX combines the exhilaration of electrified performance with the convenience of a simplified drivetrain. With the freedom to charge at home, at work, or at public charging stations, ZDX drivers can power up based on their schedule. The electric motor is engineered to offer a quieter cabin and typically requires less maintenance than a gas-powered vehicle. Plus, the ZDX also produces zero tailpipe emissions.
Pre-production model shown.The ZDX Driving Experience
The ZDX is more than an exhilarating drive, it’s a smart investment. On average, operating an EV typically costs less than a gas-powered vehicle, kilometre for kilometre. ZDX drivers may also be able to take advantage of benefits like HOV lane access eligibility, tax credits, and more.
Electrified Performance
The ZDX’s dual electric motors offer quick acceleration and adrenaline-pumping thrills.
Minimized Travel Time
Connect the ZDX to a DC Fast Charging* (DCFC) charger at a publicly available station with 190kW of charging power and get back on the road faster.
Personalized Navigation
The ZDX is the first Acura with
Google built-in*, that includes an enhanced version of Google Maps for EV drivers to optimize route plans for recharging, find charging stations, and estimate charging times required to reach their destination.
KEEPING YOUR ZDX CHARGED
THREE LEVELS OF CHARGING
Driving the all-electric ZDX is simple thanks to three different charging levels that’ll help it fit right into your lifestyle. Included with your ZDX is a portable charging cable with 120V and 240V adapters, allowing you to charge via a standard three-pronged home outlet (120V AC), or a 4-pronged NEMA 14-50 outlet (240V AC) at limited speeds.
LEVEL 1
Standard: 120V AC Outlet
Level 1 charging uses a standard 120-volt home electrical outlet, compatible with your portable charging cable. Simply plug your charger directly into a wall outlet and draw power from your home.
LEVEL 2
Faster: 240V AC Outlet or Hardwired Connection
SETTING UP YOUR AT-HOME CHARGING STATION
Driving a ZDX is even more convenient when you charge at home with a Level 2 charger. Home installation allows drivers to charge their ZDX at their convenience and start every morning with a charge. We highly recommend speaking to a certified installer who will help you understand all the requirements and the best home connector type for your needs.

Optimizing Route Plans
Planning your road trip is easy in the first Acura with Google built-in*, that includes an enhanced version of Google Maps for EV drivers to optimize route plans for recharging by locating charging stations and estimating charging times to reach their destination.
BUILDING AN EXPANSIVE CHARGING NETWORK
Acura is proud to partner with six of the world’s leading automakers to develop a new, high-powered charging network – with over 30,000 charging points in North America – that will make EV charging more convenient, accessible, and reliable to all EV customers.
Optimize Your Driving Range
With intuitive features and cutting-edge technology, ZDX drivers can feel confident in optimizing their battery’s range, no matter the destination. Beyond assisting with navigation, Google built-in* will also initiate preconditioning of the ZDX battery when navigating to a DC Fast Charging* (DCFC) station, reducing charging times and getting drivers back on the road faster.

ABOUT ELECTRIC VEHICLES

What are some of the benefits of an electric vehicle (EV)?
Electric vehicles (EVs) are powered by electricity from a rechargeable battery, as opposed to an internal combustion engine, which means they produce zero tailpipe emissions. And, because their motors are electric, they offer a far more quiet cabin.
Also, the simplified drivetrain in an EV gives engineers more flexibility to design a spacious interior for both drivers and passengers.
Would my routine need to change in order to own an EV?
One important adjustment to your life will be remembering to plug your ZDX into a Level 1 or Level 2 charger overnight at home. When you do need to charge while on the road, some quick planning can help you determine which public charging station best fits your road trip and, for added convenience, which has amenities near it so you can shop, eat, or run errands while your ZDX charges.
How much maintenance is required for an EV?
The maintenance on an EV is less than you may think. EVs do not require scheduled oil changes, for example, but will still need regular service on items like tire rotations, alignments, and air filter changes. The ZDX will also need to have its battery, electric motor, and cooling system inspected according to a maintenance schedule.
What if I want to take a road trip?
Planning ahead and checking what charging options are available en route to your destination can help ensure the best road trip experience possible. Finding the charging stations that will be available on your drive through mobile apps can help optimize your charging and keep you on track to arrive at your destination on time. Many public charging stations are now located near restaurants and shopping malls, so you can time your charging with meals or stretch your legs while you wait.
About Charging

Do most people charge at home?
Yes. Driving a ZDX is even more convenient when you charge at home with a Level 2 charger. Home installation allows drivers to charge their ZDX at their convenience and start every morning with a charge. It’s also more cost-effective than public charging stations. We highly recommend speaking to a certified installer who will help you understand all the requirements and the best home connector type for your needs. Learn more about electric vehicle chargers.
How much does it cost to install a charger and how long does it take?
Installation costs vary depending on the electrical system and the type of installation. We highly recommend speaking to a certified installer who will help you understand all the requirements and the best home connector type for your needs.

EXPLORE CHARGEPOINT HOME FLEXI can’t install a home charger at my home. Are there other charging options?
A Level 2 home charging device is typically the most convenient, but the rising number of public charging stations in some areas makes it possible to solely use public stations. Many EV drivers often rely on chargers at their workplace. Search for charging stations near you.
How do I use a public charging station?
Most charging stations accept credit card payments. Some stations accept payment from a phone app but may require you to register for an account.
