- The 2026 Acura ADX is arriving at dealers with a new paint color.
- Pricing still starts at $35,000, but Acura boosted the destination fee.
- Higher-end trims see price hikes, despite apparently gaining nothing.
The Acura ADX has quickly established itself as one of the brand’s best-selling vehicles as Americans snapped up 20,133 of them last year. That put the model slightly behind the Integra, but it’s off to a great start.
Acura doesn’t want to mess with success, so the 2026 ADX is getting the smallest of changes. In particular, there’s a newly available Double Apex Blue Pearl paint job. It replaces Adriatic Sea Blue Metallic and will be available with both Ebony and Orchid interiors. When ordered with the latter cabin, the seats will have blue micro suede inserts.

Pricing remains largely unchanged as the model continues to start at $35,000 before a $1,450 destination fee. That being said, the ADX A-Spec climbs $200 to begin at $38,200. Likewise, the ADX A-Spec with the Advance Package now costs an additional $400.
It’s also worth mentioning Acura quietly boosted the delivery fee on the 2025 ADX by $100 – bringing it up to $1,450 – just two days ago. That’s some interesting timing as the 2026 model is already arriving at dealerships.
Shady tactics aside, we’ll remind you the ADX comes nicely equipped with LED lighting units and 18-inch alloy wheels. The model also has a moonroof and a power liftgate.
The interior sports a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster and a 9-inch infotainment system. Buyers will also find heated leatherette front seats, a wireless smartphone charger, and an eight-speaker audio system. Other niceties include an ambient lighting system, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and a dual-zone automatic climate control system.
A host of driver assistance systems come standard including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, and Traffic Jam Assist. They’re joined by Road Departure Mitigation, Forward Collision Warning, and a Blind Spot Information System – among others.
Higher end variants are more luxurious as they offer remote start, Google integration, and a 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium audio system. Customers can also get leather, heated and ventilated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.
All trims are powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine developing 190 hp (142 kW / 193 PS) and 179 lb-ft (242 Nm) of torque. It’s connected to a continuously variable transmission, which can be paired to an all-wheel drive system for an additional $2,000.
