Why Go Electric in Libertyville, IL, Near Vernon Hills

Have you been asking, “Why should I buy an EV?” McGrath Acura of Libertyville in Illinois – near Vernon Hills, Mundelein, Des Plaines, Northbrook, and Highland Park – can give you some advantages. If you thought Precision Crafted Performance™ was exciting, buckle up. The future of exhilarating driving has officially arrived, and it’s whisper-quiet, lightning-fast, and powered purely by electricity: meet the all-electric Acura ZDX.

What makes an Acura EV different? It’s the thrill you expect, without the hassle. The moment you tap the pedal, the instant torque delivers a jolt of adrenaline that will reset your definition of quick. Thanks to the battery placement, the ZDX enjoys a lower center of gravity, which means it hugs the curves of those Lake County backroads with the kind of agility that's frankly unfair to the competition. Plus, with a seamless, single-speed transmission and virtually no engine noise, your commute just became a spa day.

Beyond the drive, let's talk about those glorious gas savings. Consider your weekly trip to the pump officially retired. The U.S. Department of Energy says driving an EV costs about half the price per mile of a traditional gas-guzzler. And forget scheduled oil changes. The ZDX has fewer moving parts and even uses regenerative braking to help charge the battery, saving wear and tear on your actual brakes.

Charging is the new refueling, and it fits your schedule, not the other way around. Imagine waking up every morning to a "full tank." That’s the reality of a home Level 2 charger. If you’re heading out, Google Maps is built right into your dash, not only planning the most efficient route but even preconditioning the battery for the fastest possible charge when you pull up to a DC Fast Charging station. And you can access the expanding Tesla Supercharger network with an available adapter. Plus, when you buy or lease a ZDX, you get a choice of charging packages to help offset the costs right off the bat.

Acura’s EV lineup is right here at McGrath Acura of Libertyville. We've got all the models, ready for you to explore. Check out our inventory online, and contact us when you find the EV you want to test drive!

Flexibility

The ZDX offers the flexibility to charge when it works best for your schedule, including at home, work, or even while running errands.

Savings

The ZDX helps drivers save on fuel and maintenance long term. On average, EVs cost less to drive mile per mile than gas-powered vehicles.

Sustainability

With zero emissions, the ZDX helps contribute to improved air quality and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

Charging Your ZDX

There are three different levels of charging for the all-electric ZDX. Level 1 charging plugs in to any standard wall outlet, but charges slower than other options. Charge more quickly with a Level 2 charging station at home or public locations like shopping malls, offices and restaurants. For the fastest charging, choose a high-powered DC Fast Charging (DCFC) station for up to 81 miles of range added with a 10-minute charge* and easily pay through the Acura EV app.

Get More From Every Drive

With intuitive features and cutting-edge technology, the ZDX helps optimize battery use, no matter the destination. Beyond assisting with route planning to make road trips easier, Google Maps* will also help to initiate preconditioning of the ZDX battery when navigating to a DC Fast Charging (DCFC) station, reducing charging times and getting drivers back on the road faster.
