Just in time for the holidays, a brand-new Acura ZDX Type S has landed in my apartment parking lot. This all-electric SUV—Acura's first such endeavor—is the top-of-the-line model, denoted by its Type S badge. In this, its most athletic guise, it gets 499 horsepower and 544 pound-feet of torque, as well as enormous 15.6-inch brake rotors up front paired to six-pot Brembo calipers, height-adjustable air suspension, and for the first time on any Acura, hands-free cruise control.
