The Acura ZDX is an all-electric vehicle that offers convenient charging options at home or on the go. The exact charging time may vary depending on the charging method used and the current state of charge of the vehicle’s battery. However, it is mentioned that the ZDX A-Spec RWD can charge at DC Fast Charging (DCFC) stations and gain an estimated 81 miles of range with a 10-minute charge. Additionally, the Acura EV app allows ZDX drivers to check the charge status, find charging stations, and pay for charging with partner charging networks. It is important to note that more specific information on charging times may be available in the coming months as the vehicle is released.
