What is new on the 2026 Acura RDX compared to the 2025 model?
The 2026 RDX receives a significant infotainment upgrade: Google Built-In replaces AcuraLink on A-Spec and Advance trims, bringing native Google Maps and Google Assistant without a subscription fee. Acura has also revised the standard equipment list — Acura Watch (blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, enhanced lane-keeping assist) is now standard on all trims, not just the Elite. The 2.0T VTEC Turbo engine producing 272 hp and the 10DCT gearbox remain identical. Two new exterior colours are available: Apex Blue Pearl and a revised Lunar Silver Metallic. Towing capacity stays at 1,588 kg.
