2013 Acura ZDX review notes - AutoWeek

NEWS EDITOR GREG MIGLIORE: I like the 2013 Acura ZDX . On a snowy, wet commute home, this elevated crossover with all-wheel drive performed in excellent fashion. I think the ZDX looks sharp, has strong exterior styling and carries excellent proportions. Acura took a risk with this thing, and I think it was executed well. But there are two big problems: First, its styling, which I said that I like, but I know most people don’t agree with me. Second, it’s overpriced. Thus, Acura is killing the ZDX after the 2013 model year. That’s a shame, because Acura needs brand identity, and by having a crossover like this, it truly had a vehicle that’s unique in the segment. It’s a bit similar to the BMW X6, which is another vehicle I like that many others don’t. The ZDX is different. If I were to buy a crossover, I would look for one with edgy styling like this. One that also offered the elevated ride height of typical utes, with a car-like ride. This particular example of the ZDX is dressed darkly inside and out, and that presents a well-tailored appearance. Source: autoweek.com
