On the 2024-2026 Acura ZDX, the ZDX frequently charges at speeds well below its advertised 190 kW maximum DC fast charging rate, with many owners reporting peak rates of only 80-120 kW even on 350 kW chargers. The battery thermal management system appears to limit charging speed aggressively, and charging curves vary significantly based on battery state of charge, ambient temperature, and recent driving patterns.
Precondition the battery by using the "Precondition for DC Fast Charging" feature in the infotainment system before arriving at a charger. Charge between 10-80% SoC for optimal speeds — the charging rate drops significantly above 80%. Avoid DC fast charging immediately after extended highway driving at high speeds. Acura continues to push OTA calibration updates to improve charging curve behavior.
