The numbers

The defining figure is 27 MPG combined. EPA city driving is rated at 25 MPG, while highway driving is rated at 30 MPG. That five-MPG gap means the ADX AWD uses less fuel on highway trips than in city driving.

Tailpipe carbon dioxide is listed at 329 grams per mile.

What it costs to run

EPA estimates the ADX AWD's annual fuel cost at $3,050. That is the official yearly estimate; the facts do not provide a fuel price or mileage basis for converting it into a monthly figure.

How it compares

Its 30 MPG highway rating is 5 MPG higher than its 25 MPG city rating. The 27 MPG combined figure is the useful single number for mixed driving, while the separate city and highway ratings show how the result changes by route.

Who it suits

The ADX AWD fits a driver who wants a gasoline wagon with all-wheel drive and a combined rating of 27 MPG. Its highway figure makes it more economical on open-road trips than in stop-and-go city use.

Trade-offs

All-wheel drive comes with a 27 MPG combined rating rather than a higher figure. City use is rated at 25 MPG, below the 30 MPG highway figure, and the EPA lists annual fuel cost at $3,050.

Verdict

Choose the 2026 Acura ADX AWD if your priority is a small wagon with all-wheel drive and straightforward gasoline power. Its 27 MPG combined rating gives a clear expectation for mixed routes, with better efficiency on highways than in town. The $3,050 EPA annual fuel estimate is the key running-cost number to budget. This is a sensible match for drivers who value AWD and wagon body style more than minimizing fuel use or emissions, which are listed at 329 grams of CO2 per mile.
