Yahoo Autos 2025 Acura RDX Changes Are So Minor You Might Not Even Notice Them
The 2025 Acura RDX's facelift includes a different grille design, fresh paint options, and new wheel choices.
Inside, the center console gets a redesign and the infotainment screen adds a new widescreen mode for phone mirroring.
The updated RDX will arrive at Acura dealerships later this month, with pricing expected to be released around that time.
Last year, Acura made all-wheel drive standard across the RDX lineup. This year, changes to the compact luxury SUV are more focused on visuals and rounding out the RDX package with updated technology and minor cabin revisions.
The most obvious visual change involves the RDX's front end. The grille takes on a new "frameless" look and adopts a more distinctive mesh pattern. The lineup receives new wheel designs too, with a newly standard set of 19-inchers painted Berlina Black. The lower body trim on the Advance trim level is now color-matched to the rest of the body to help distinguish its spot at the top of the lineup. There are also three new paint options: Solar Silver Metallic, Canyon River Blue Metallic, and Urban Gray Pearl.
Inside, changes are equally minimal. The redesigned center console has larger cupholders and improved access to the wireless charging pad. The 10.2-inch infotainment screen has been updated to include a new widescreen mode for the wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
There's nothing new under the RDX's hood for 2025. Every model is still powered by a 272-hp 2.0-liter turbo four paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The last model we tested rode on a set of 20-inch wheels and hit 60 mph in 6.2 seconds. We're still waiting for Acura to release a full pricing breakdown before '25 RDX models start arriving at dealerships later this month.
