Get a $110 Rebate on Continental Tires! bit.ly/41rWvVU

The depreciation on these will be historic

The roof line at the rear has a hearse look to it...🤔😁

So this Acura is actually a Honda that's actually a GM. At least it's pretty.

I’m not a Tesla fanboy at all, but when a Model Y is $54k in Canada (plus qualifies for $5k government incentive), has more range, more experience building and supporting EV infrastructure, supercharger network, etc….how can anyone possibly justify this for over $90k? I can understand some people may prefer this design, but beyond that, the price of this is just wild. If you don’t want a Tesla and want a fast EV, the Kia EV6 GT destroys this for the price.

D.O.A in Canada no one is going to pay $90K+ (most likely over $100K with taxes) for this.

With the shape of the roof and the chrome strip this reminds me of a funeral car. Can't unsee. Lol

That chrome strip on the C-pillar makes it resemble a hearse.

Thumbnail pic got me watching

They couldn’t reprogram the dash sounds to Honda/Acura? If I close my eyes it’s all 100% GM

I don't know who's making these decisions at Honda, but I'm so disappointed in them...

2:24 how the roof meets the quarter glass with the sliver strip, gives me Hearse funeral car vibes

It's a very good looking car, but being based on a GM platform is a big downside, especially for the price. It's like an expensive restaurant meal being made with dollar-store ingredients.

Side profile with black roof and chrome trim reminds me of a hearst. Once you see it you cannot unsee it.

Ahh, the references to the OG ZDX. They really were ahead of their time.

Just got done with the dishes. Excellent video, guys!

1:25 that was such a smooth transition, you guys timed it perfectly

It's a Cadillac Lyriq. Built along side the Lyriq in a GM factory. There's very little Acura anything to this. It's quite sad that Honda / Acura needed GM to come out with an EV, not just any EV but to bring back the ZDX name. Acura themselves are hoping that loyalist aren't aware they are buying a GM product. Acura technicians aren't trained to work on this. So in the end, why not just save some money, buy the GM version? Another disappointment from the Acura brand. Their partnership already ended.. Such a joke at this point.

Honda already gave up on the platform and GM collaboration. You'd be crazy to buy this.

In the end, Ultium is a solid platform. We’ll see the winner in 5yrs.. still think hybrids should’ve came first.

Yesss I am not the only one that dislike black wheels. Slick silver wheels are much much awesome and luxurius.

That chrome trim after the C pillar makes it look like a hearse.

Was the herse looking swoop on the side supposed to indicate "dead on arrival?"

FINALLY a car that showx carplay/adnroid maps in the cluster. i've never understood why others dont do that.

It looks like a hearse. Which makes sense considering everyone saying it is D.O.A.

Innovating the hearse, now electric so you don't disturb the corpse in the back. 😂

Sick NOMIS sweater Yuri!!

Cool looking ev. Love the tigers eye color.

9:38 is an underratedly courteous move. Common straightpipes w

The chrome accent strip on the rear quarter makes it look like a hearse

Is Yuri wearing a nomis sweater lol I haven't seen that brand in yearssss , love it nomis is og af lol

Not sure if I like Acura Blazer or Chevy ZDX better

1:25 nice transition if people are paying attention. 😊

When you’ve put so much money investing into something people won’t buy you may as well release it anyway 🤣

OH MY GOD ITS MAGNIFIQUE !!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH for censoring the "hey Google". Donut just had an ad recently that triggered my room speaker three times in a row. So annoying! I appreciate the effort! Interesting car, too.

The side profile at the rear (top) looks like a hearse with the way that chrome strip drops down.

3:34 you are right. The side view on the gold one, with that chrome trim, it looks like a HEARSE. Like you are carting around someone who DIED.

Looks awesome like a Acura should look. Could be more Acura inside, however it's good enough.

Is that a Nomis jacket? Brought back some nostalgia for me haha.

Really upset they removed lots of the concept car details, like the grill was much nicer. I thought maybe this would be the car my dad should get from our MDX but I definitely think the X5 is the way to go. Also yeah I thought they’d keep the coupe style SUV for the ZDX like the older model.

You can't have call two-tone cars cool and then show a picture of the Baja. Love you guys

A hearse would have something like that swooping chrome strip on the blacked-out C-pillars.

Lyriq is ZDX, they have the same 12 module battery, thus charging perf would be similar to that not to Blazer which is mostly the 9module (except for the RWD RS)

Hopefully it sells as well as the last ZDX

19:27 I agree! I wish these mid luxury models have colorful interiors for colorful exteriors. Many of the configurators have Red and Blue exteriors paired with only black interiors. I'm shopping somewhere else. I need colors on the inside.

The paint looks crazy and the blacked out roof makes it look like a hearse.

Awesome!

Since it was designed in California and that there seems to be consensus that the rear quarter panel gives a hearse vibe, it makes me wonder who they used for focus group feedback, and what do hearses look like in California? Still looks very good and unique in my mind, in a world of similarly styled SUVs.

LOL that center camera being out of focused really fucked with me for first bit. Thought my you tube wasn't loading properly.

WISH Australia got Acura stuff

Like the looks but the silver line down the side makes it look like a Hearse in my mind.

YESSSSSSS! You finally said "ZEE"!

@thestraightpipes where is Yuri's hoodie from???

Will it show waze in the cluster?

This co-development deal with Honda/GM also been cancelled as Honda is saying they are struggling to get good range with GM's platform plus the slowdown in EV sales.

design looks futuristic

Color spec is badass but needs a white interior

THANK YOU for not setting off my Google Home!

Great review guys. I haven't commented lately, but you're both still doing a great job. Keep it up. I hope you get the 2-mil mark soon. This is a very nice rig and only GMs reliability record has me wondering how successful it will be in the long run. The Prologue too, very nice and a worthy competitor for those looking into an EV alternative. Teslas are still the best in my opinion. Their engineering, efficiency and packaging is still top notch in the industry. The Model 3 still wins most comparison test even when paired with the newest efforts from other manufacturers. For all his quirks, Elon and his team did a fantastic job of turning the entire industry toward viable EVs. I would look into this Acura simply because it looks so much better than the Model Y and X. All of them, however, are still too expensive!

I thought I was subscribed already, and only checked because Yuri changed how he says Z XD

Nice new two-tone, Jakub!

chrome roof trim looks like a hearse.....

If I got the zdx I would have to wrap the chrome trim at the top.

Sick GMC bro.

i don’t have a google home. but i liked the memes

Stylish design, reliable transportation.

The “Zed” Hearse 😂

6:30 Is that a Datejust Ref. 126333? I guess that Continental sponsorship is paying off!

It baffles me how Acura’s still even alive. I can say the same for Infiniti also lmao.

The upper half of the back side profile reminds me of a hearse.

Shout out Yuri’s Nomis sweater

Looking at it from the side “profile”, the chrome piece, makes it look like a hears.

It looks like a hearse from the top when you look at it from the side..lol 😆😂

Nice!

Nice hearse.

I miss the old zdk! It was ahead of its time

Man I gotta say. Amazing Easter egg on filming two “Hondas” on Honda Blvd 🤣🤣

The biggest problem with the Acura ZDX is that the MDX exists. The ZDX is a 2 row EV with less cargo space and fewer seats than the MDX, but being sold at a price higher than the MDX A-spec. It's like a larger RDX made into an EV. Granted, I am more comfortable driving the ZDX than the RDX or MDX, but the target audience doesn't want to be hassled with recharging at public charging stations and would just as quickly take an RDX A-spec or MDX A-spec and pocket the difference. I own the Cadillac Lyriq AWD Luxury 3. In every way it's better than the ZDX. It looks better, has better materials inside and is more likely to turn heads. I also have massage seats. The ZDX A-spec lacks massage seats and GM Supercruise. You'll need the S-type to get the autonomous driving. You're spending $75k and not getting an interior as nice as the Lyriq's. The 490HP AWD helps make this a fun vehicle and the available air suspension makes the ride smoother on the 22" wheels, but the interior buttons, switches and display screens look sadly cheap. Maybe even cheaper than what you find in the Chevy Blazer EV (another Ultium sister). You're basically getting a guzzied up Honda Prologue. I think these cars are going to need considerable discounts to sell, but in their defense, they are more comfortable and livable products than the Tesla Model X, Model S or many other Luxury EV that cost way more. Most buyers are gonna get an MDX instead.

Was hoping for some dmx music on this one

Whenever I hear a Canuck say Zed I think of pulp fiction. The last scene his asks about where he got the motor bike from. He responds is a choppa and it’s from zed. Zed is dead baby.

All these people will be shocked to know manufacturers share parts and chassis all the time. Most 8 and 9 speed transmissions are ZF. BMW, Ram, and everyone else use them soo not buying those either?

5:31 sounds like an old Windows 95/98 intro almost

Was there any mention of the rear cargo room!?!

Love the looks of this🔥 imagine this with a V8🔥🔥🔥

No SH-AWD in Acura product is no Acura product indeed. Nice car otherwise but too expensive.

Is that Desert Tan now the new "it" color for SUVs and Crossovers?

The side view reminds me of Hearst.

Thank you so much for censoring Google. 😂😂 My Google Nest is right next to the TV.

Another distinction to add with CarPlay direction THIS vehicles does not precondition prior to DCFC. Another vehicle in the near future does this 😉

Strong hearse vibes

Why don't you guys do box test anymore??

Looks like a hearse with that roof and that chrome piece, love the color, not worth the price and no frunk no sell.

The way you pronounced Z was inACURAte, Yuri

I think, for a first effort, this is a good shot by Acura, other than the price. Yikes! That's a lot of money. Honda / Acura has entered a lot of new car segments with the help of another manufacturer, and then kicked ass once their own product, designed and built in-house for gen 2, came out. They're going to be wonderful, once they start hitting the used market. 😉😅 As always, great review guys. Definite 10 out of 10!

I feel bad for people who buy this…. It’s not even a Honda product. Never EVER buying anything from GM. Ever. As a 2013 MDX owner, I will wait until Honda develops and puts their own bespoke platform on the market. THERE IS A REASON THEY DIDN’T DEVELOP THEIR OWN. They most likely have next gen tech coming, and putting it on the market now is too risky because it takes a lot of capital and requires more testing. So they outsourced everything to GM. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. GM already had a stop sale on these a few months back.

The backend from the side looks like the padded roof on a hearse.

Do you guys know anything about what happens to fully functional yet still 'pre-production' vehicles such as this one? There is nothing online that I can find about it. From what I've gleaned, some are used as corporate cars until end of lifespan or destroyed after use. Perhaps a select few are kept in company collections (not open to the public).

Nice little gm crossover loll

It shares a platform with the Cadillac lyric as well. And you can kinda see it more than the Chevy.
