Acura has opened reservations for its first fully electric vehicle (EV). Starting today, you can order the Acura ZDX<\/a> at around $60,000 for a baseline model with a single-motor (rear-wheel-drive) powertrain. The first deliveries of the \u201cperformance SUV\u201d are expected in early 2024.<\/p>\n

The automaker said earlier this year it would shift to online-only sales of Acura EVs<\/a> starting in 2024, and ZDX preorders appear to reflect that. The company said the EV is available through \u201ca new, omni-channel digital sales process,\u201d which buyers can use themselves at home, or receive assistance in using at Acura dealers (although the EVs won’t be available at the dealership itself.)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The ZDX comes in two models. The standard ($60,000 and up) A-Spec variant ships with a 325-mile range, 340 horsepower, a rear-wheel-drive single motor and 20-inch wheels. Meanwhile, the all-wheel-drive ZDX Type S has a shorter 288-mile range but a more potent 500 horsepower, 22-inch wheels and a starting price of around $70,000. Parent company Honda describes the pricier Type S as \u201cthe most powerful and best performing Acura SUV ever.\u201d<\/p>\n

The EV has Android Auto, built-in Google apps<\/a> and Apple CarPlay integration. It includes an 11-inch driver-side touchscreen, an 11.3-inch center display and a Bang & Olufsen audio system, which is standard. Its safety features include a rear pedestrian alert and blind zone steering assist. It even has hands-free cruise driver assistance.<\/p>\n

The ZDX supports DC Fast Charging (and can add 81 miles through a 10-minute top-off). In addition, Honda has teamed with six other automakers on a project to build a network of 30,000 stations<\/a> across North America. That initiative is expected to begin in the US by the summer of 2024.<\/p>\n

You can order your ZDX in either model in Acura\u2019s online reservations portal<\/a>. Honda notes pre-orders will include a bonus Acura Energy Key Card, which can unlock \u201cexclusive benefits,\u201d including \u201cdiscounts to Acura entertainment partners and special events.\u201d<\/p>\n
