- The only change is a $100 increase in the destination fee.
The 2026 Acura ADX subcompact SUV carries over mostly unchanged for the new model year, and that includes its starting price of $36,450, Acura announced today. Well, mostly. Honda’s luxury brand increased the model’s destination charge to $1,450 — $100 more than the fee for the 2025 model year.
Otherwise, the brand’s newest model maintains its entry-point status into Acura with a reasonably good value. It’s based on the Honda HR-V, and priced about $10,000 higher, but it’s less expensive than subcompact luxury SUV rivals such as the Volvo XC40, Lexus UX, and BMW X1, among others.
Sold in base, A-Spec, and A-Spec with Advance Package trims, the roomy Acura ADX uses a turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine rated at 190-horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. A continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) powers the front wheels, and all-wheel drive (AWD) is available on any of the three trims for $2,000.
The base model comes with 18-inch wheels, heated front seats, power driver’s seat, moonroof, power tailgate, a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster and a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and a wireless device charger.
It also has all the driver assist systems that some of its German rivals charge extra for, including lane-departure warning, emergency braking, adaptive cruise control with low-speed follow, lane-keeping assistance, and road sign recognition.
The $39,650 A-Spec adds synthetic suede upholstery, red accent stitching, stainless steel sport pedals, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, and 19-inch wheels.
The $43,850 A-Spec with Advance Package tops the lineup, featuring 19-inch black wheels, a Google built-in operating system, a heated steering wheel, a surround-view camera, and a 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system.
The 2026 Acura ADX is on sale now.
