Honda to launch Acura ZDX coupe | detnews.com | The Detroit News |
Honda Motor Co. will roll out an all-new Acura ZDX sports coupe this winter, adding a sixth model to its premium lineup.
The four-door ZDX is based on a prototype displayed at the New York International Auto Show in April and retains some of the most striking features, such as the long, panoramic glass roof and hidden rear door handles.
Honda describes the car, which was developed and designed in North America, as a "a perfect weekend getaway vehicle." It also will be produced in North America.
The ZDX "combines the best attributes of a coupe, a sedan and a sport utility -- all wrapped in a beautifully sculpted package -- that will attract an entirely new luxury customer to the Acura brand," said Jeff Conrad, vice president of sales for Acura.
The car is powered by an all-aluminum 3.7-liter V6 engine delivering 300 horsepower and 270 pounds-feet of torque.
The ZDX will be positioned and priced between the MDX luxury SUV starting at $40,990 and the RL luxury performance sedan starting at $46,830, Honda said. Pricing details will be announced closer to the launch.
