Acura Japanese premium brand has revived the ZDX model. The crossover will be the first electric car in the history of the brand.

There is a version with an all-wheel drive and two electric motors with a total capacity of 373 kW (507 hp) for more demanding buyers. In addition, a more powerful Type S version can be ordered as well.

Lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 102 kWh can serve up to 523 km on a single charge. Charging stations with a capacity of up to 190 kW can be used to replenish electricity. Stationary stations will allow you to "refuel" the battery in 10 minutes, providing a range of up to 130 km.
The sporty version of the Type S features height-adjustable air suspension, adaptive shock absorbers and powerful Brembo brakes with yellow calipers and 6 pistons. A special Sport mode allows the full potential of a pair of electric motors to be realized.

Music lovers will appreciate the Bang & Olufsen audio system, which first appeared on the brand's cars.
