Acura announced that all versions of the upcoming 2024 Acura ZDX are expected to qualify for the full federal $7,500 tax credit.

The entry-level version starts at an MSRP of $64,500. After applying the incentive at the time of purchase, the cost drops to $57,000 (plus the destination fee). Just a few days ago, the Honda Prologue also received confirmation about eligibility for the $7,500 federal tax credit.

The ZDX is the first all-electric model from the Acura brand. Like the Honda Prologue, it's based on the General Motors' Ultium platform.

According to the latest press release, the Acura ZDX is expected to arrive at Acura dealerships in the coming months. The model has been available for reservations since January and now it can be ordered.

The model, based on General Motors's Ultium platform, will be available in several versions, including A-Spec RWD and AWD, as well as a performance-oriented Type S (AWD only).

Nonetheless, the numbers remain solid at around 300 miles, thanks to a large 102-kilowatt-hour battery pack.
