2025 Acura ADX: Pricing and features of Acura’s new entry-level SUV
When Acura reintroduced its Integra hatchback to the lineup for 2023, it reinvigorated its entry-level offering well beyond the sad-sack ILX it replaced. The turbocharged Integra is sporty, sharp-looking and available in higher-performance 320-hp Type S form — all good things, except for one: It's not an SUV. While we find the Integra's hatchback packaging excellent (it's related to the similarly great Honda Civic hatchback, after all), buyers still gravitate toward taller hatchbacks known better as "SUVs." Enter the new-for-2025 ADX, an all-new nameplate for Acura that takes the Integra's formula and stretches it vertically to better suit American customers' tastes. With its more appealing form factor, the ADX becomes Acura's de-facto entry-level model, and we now know how much it costs.
The two Acuras share a 200-hp turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine and continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), though the ADX adds the option for all-wheel drive that the Integra lacks (the ADX also does without the Integra's optional six-speed manual transmission). The two small Acuras are further related underneath: The ADX's platform is adapted from the same bones that underpin Honda's subcompact HR-V SUV, which in turn is spun off the Civic platform that also lurks beneath the Integra's snappier duds. Just as the Integra's interior is a jazzed-up take on a modern Civic's, with nicer materials, ear-melting audio systems and cooler colorways, so, too, is the ADX's transformed from the humbler HR-V's. The effect is convincing, and though one could complain Acura hasn't done enough to visually separate the interiors of the Integra and ADX from their Honda siblings, Acura also isn't charging a whole lot more money for either vehicle. Nor is Acura charging a huge premium for the ADX over the Integra.
The 2025 Acura ADX will start at $36,350 — less than $3,000 more than you'll pay for a similar 2025 Integra ($33,595), with destination charges included. That gap more or less holds as you step up to the ADX A-Spec, which includes sportier visuals and different wheels, and you'll pay $39,350 (the equivalent Integra runs $35,595); a top-level ADX A-Spec with the Advance package runs just $43,350 (while a top-rung Integra costs $38,595).
Acura makes all-wheel drive optional on every ADX trim level, charging $2,000 for the upgrade from front-wheel drive. That means the most one can pay for an ADX is just a sliver over $45,000 — which, we'll remind you, is less than the average transaction price of a new vehicle in America in 2025, and about one grand shy of where the larger Acura RDX's pricing picks up. The ADX is also very favorably priced against other subcompact luxury SUVs such as BMW's X1 (which starts at $42,525), Audi's Q3 ($41,095-plus), Mercedes-Benz's GLA-Class ($44,150 and up) and Lexus's NX ($42,140).
Trim levels and features
Acura stuffs the entry-level ADX with more features than you'll get on the similar Integra, too. The ADX gets a larger 9.0-inch touchscreen (available on the Integra, too, but not on the base car), a 10.2-inch digital gauge cluster, dual-zone automatic climate control (base Integras get single-zone) and a wireless phone charger standard.
The ADX A-Spec more or less mirrors the visual upgrades found on the Integra A-Spec, with LED fog lamps, gloss black exterior trim and 19-inch wheels, while also funneling in a panoramic sunroof, suede seat trim, ventilated front seats, red contrast stitching throughout, a flat-bottom steering wheel, sport pedals, LED ambient cabin lighting and red-colored gauge cluster accents.
Finally, the ADX A-Spec with Advance package wears Berlina black 19-inch wheels and enjoys a 360-degree parking camera, Google Built-In tech for the central display (with a three-year unlimited data plan), a heated steering wheel and a 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system (which we're eager to compare against the Integra's available face-jiggling 16-speaker ELS setup).
