Is the CDX Acura's Newest Crossover?

AutoGuide.com · Feb 17, 2015

Honda has filed a trademark to protect the name “CDX.”

Filed on February 11 with the US Patent and trademark office, the trademark covers “automobiles and their structural parts.” The most likely candidate to adopt the CDX nameplate is a small Acura crossover, as it would follow the naming structure of the larger RDX and MDX.

It was recently revealed that Acura is studying the feasibility of selling a small Honda HR-V (pictured above) based crossover and it seems like the brand has already chosen a name for the small vehicle. Bringing a new crossover into the lineup makes sense for the brand, which sold nearly double the amount of crossover than cars last year.

If built, the Acura CDX would compete directly with the Buick Encore which has posted impressive sales numbers since its launch.

I don't know about that. The ILX flopped big time vs. the Verano.

Look, Maude. It's an Acure-uh Seedy X!

LOL!

This is why GM needs to get off their keister and keep updating the little bugger. A better engine would be a good place to start

What "Little bugger"?

I'm guessing with a base price of 35K for a RDX, the CDX will be more like 30K base, still much more like the GLA and X1 than the Encore.

Either way, they should build this vehicle. I've said that much before!

This is based off the Fit, right?
My aunt has an old RAV-4 and before that she had a CR-V. She hates the new ones because they're too big for her. She's holding on to what she has until these come out.

We have current and previous CR-Vs. Different cars. I like HR-V because it seems like the spiritual successor to the previous CR-V.
