2026 Acura ADX: Premium Compact SUV Confidence in Chicago
A refined first impression comes naturally when you’re driving the 2026 Acura ADX. McGrath Acura of Downtown Chicago is ready to share with you a premium compact SUV that suits Chicago driving with upscale details that stay easy to use. From downtown streets and Lake Shore Drive to out-of-town adventures, the Acura ADX gives your drives a sharper sense of control.
Power and Performance
Every Acura ADX uses a turbocharged 1.5-liter VTEC® Turbo engine with 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. A sport-tuned continuously variable transmission works with metal paddle shifters, early downshift during braking, and Step Shift programming for a more connected feel when acceleration demands rise. Available all-wheel drive is offered across the lineup, giving you added control when rain, snow, or changing road surfaces affect your commute.
A fully independent sport-tuned suspension helps this new Acura model stay composed through tight streets, expressway ramps, and weekend routes beyond the city. This Acura SUV also shares its advanced global architecture with the Acura Integra, giving the Acura ADX a more engaging foundation. For your drive through Chicago, IL, that balance of power and control keeps the Acura ADX confident without feeling oversized.
