2010 Acura ZDX price and details

2010 Acura ZDX
Needless to say, the 2010 Acura ZDX is a peculiar beast. And after a week's worth of testing, we're still not sure what to make of it.

But just for some context, let's begin with the fact that despite a similar fastback, five-door body style, the ZDX is not related to the Honda Accord Crosstour. Honda's jacked-up hatch is substantially larger than the ZDX and far more useful. Instead, it's best to think of the ZDX as a rake-roofed version of the MDX – a high-riding four-door coupe (assuming you buy into the marketing spiel) akin to its closest competitor, the BMW X6. Both models share similar designs and purposes – although the ZDX maxes out in price and performance where the German starts off – and both possess some of the attributes of a two-door layout – compromises and all.

Acura MDX is great in luxury

The largest of the Acura crossovers, MDX has been freshened up for 2010.

Up front, Acura has put in their signature grille and made some other changes to the front fascia, fenders and hood.

There has been a little cosmetic tweaking of the sides by changing the side sills. At the rear, tail lights have a new shape and brighter LEDs installed. The lower rear fascia is now sculpted around the dual polished stainless steel exhaust tips giving a bit of a classy look to a rather large tail.

Improvements that you can't see start with an increase in displacement of the V6 to 3.7 litres. Add to that a revised engine block that is stiffer than before, uses a high-strength crankshaft, heavy duty rods and high compression pistons.

On top of that is a revised cylinder head with better cooling, new intake valve springs, new EGR system, unique longer reach spark plugs and a larger throttle body. All this is done to keep up with Acura's pledge to provide V8 power from a V6. At 300 h.p. and 270 lb./ft. of torque, the company has fulfilled its mandate.

Other improvements such as throttle by wire, variable valve lift and timing on the intake cam and a computer controlled dual stage induction system; Acura has broadened the torque curve so there is more useable power throughout the power band. In addition to the power increases, Acura has improved fuel economy over the previous MDX as well.

Acura Recalling 2010 ZDX for Air Bag Problem

cura is recalling about 1,850 of its 2010 ZDXs because the passenger-side air bag might not deploy properly in a crash.

Acura told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the dashboard cover “may not have been properly laser scored” and would not allow the air bag to inflate properly.

The company says it is not aware of any consumers having a problem and learned of the defect from a supplier. The ZDX, which Acura calls a four-door sports coupe, is assembled in Alliston, Canada.

Honda has issued a recall of about 1,850 Acura ZDX vehicles from the 2010 model year, according to the automaker.

The recall is to inspect the dashboard surface material, which may prevent the passenger-side airbag from deploying during an accident. There have been no reported incidents of this, but a manufacturing quality check found that some vehicles don’t have the proper laser-cut scoring on the underside of the material. Without this scoring, the airbag might not deploy.

After the inspection, the dealer will replace the dashboard if it doesn’t have this scoring.
