6:58is the brand’s first all-electric vehicle, and as one expects from a late entrant, it has learned from the mistakes of others. The ZDX is a high-tech powerhouse, a five-seat electric SUV that barely puts a tire wrong. Still, anyone who has driven Acuras before is going to find driving the ZDX to be a very different experience.
The instrument panel is an 11.0-inch screen that can display a moving map from either built-in Google or a phone connection, and there’s a big, bright head-up display projected in the windshield. Credit GM for the pocket-type wireless charger, which keeps your phone from flying when the ZDX is driven quickly around curves. All of the above is standard in the ZDX, as are soft leather upholstery with contrasting stitching and a giant, opening panoramic sunroof.
Regenerative braking works nicely, too; there’s a one-pedal mode with two settings plus a paddle on the steering wheel to add a little more braking. It’s almost a shame the regenerative brake works so well; one of the Type S upgrades over the A-Spec models is huge Brembo brake rotors. With regen as good as this, you’ll barely need ’em.
The disconnect is that Acura made its bones on cars that feel light and nimble, a hallmark of what it pitches as precision engineering. The ZDX doesn’t feel light at all, and not just because of its aforementioned mass. The steering is heavy. Like,too heavy. The Normal setting is as weighty as the Sport settings in some cars, and driving though the curves in Sport mode actually made our hands sore.
It's a brilliant system and one that makes long-distance drives so much easier; if we have any complaint, it’s that the system works so well it can lull you into thinking you’re a passenger. Stay alert, Hands Free Cruisers, but by all means use the time to enjoy the stupendous 18-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo, which is also standard equipment. Or leave it off and enjoy the relative lack of wind and road noise, a traditional Acura weak point.
