Comparing the Acura ADX and RDX
The obvious contrast between the Acura ADX and RDX models is size, though the difference might not be as significant as you expect. The exterior length, width, and height of the RDX are just 1.6, 2.3, and 1.9 inches larger than the ADX. On the inside, those dimensions translate to about five additional cubic feet of cargo space in the RDX (with all seats in place). To move that extra volume around, the RDX also has a larger engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 with 272 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The tech features between the ADX and RDX are different — the RDX is much further along in its present generation than the ADX — but also relatively comparable. While the RDX has a slightly larger infotainment display, the ADX counters with touchscreen capability, smartphone integration, and a couple extra inches on its digital gauge cluster.

Acura ADX Trim Levels
Acura keeps things relatively straightforward with the ADX by offering it in three trim levels: the eponymous ADX, the A-Spec, and the A-Spec with Advance Package. Let’s take a closer look.
ADX (Base)
Though the opener to the trim lineup, the standard configuration of the ADX lacks for nothing. As with the other trim levels, the base-level ADX is available in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations, and the behind-the-wheel experience is further enhanced by a standard Integrated Dynamics System, which features up to five individual driving modes. Since it’s an Acura, it comes standard with plenty of luxury and comfort features.
A-Spec
Looking for something a little sportier? The A-Spec trim is a great choice. It takes the base ADX and adds a whole host of track-inspired accents, including 19-inch Shark Gray wheels that provide a more aggressive posture. Inside the cabin, details like sport pedals and a leather-trimmed flat-bottom steering wheel make every day feel like race day, though few race cars can also boast ventilated front seats or a one-touch panoramic moonroof.
A-Spec with Advance Package
What truly sets the A-Spec with Advance Package apart is the way that it retains the best of the other trims, while adding a large dose of Acura luxury. That begins with remote start capability, and once you enter the cabin, you’ll immediately notice details like leather-trimmed seats with two-position memory and a heated steering wheel. Google Built-In ensures premium connectivity for your devices, while a hands-free power liftgate and rain-sensing windshield wipers add envy-inducing convenience to your daily rounds.
