The eagerly awaited Acura ZDX CUV has been unofficially unveiled a day ahead of its formal release at the NY Auto Show. Our friends at AutoSpies were in the right place at the right time, with a camera and got the first clear shot of the ZDX crossover on the New York Auto Show floor before the official press was allowed to see the newest vehicle in the Acura line-up. Acura’s BMW X6-fighter does a great job of carrying the new Acura DNA but somehow looks a little less menacing than the earlier Acura ZDX teaser shots.

The soon-to-be-released Acura CUV has been spied again. Unfortunately, it’s still covered in camo, but thanks to loyal AutoBlog reader we have a photo to share. AB reader, Jeff Noel (cd36) caught this action shot of the Acura CUV during some cold weather testing in Winnipeg Manitoba, Canada.

Based on the sheet metal that is exposed, we see many of the new aggressive and distinctive Acura styling cues peeking through. The side and back seems to have heavy influence from the 2009 Acura TL, including the creased and angular trunk, the wrap around taillights, body line that extends from rear to front, wrap around window chrome and the satellite antenna. It looks like the 2010 Acura CUV will blend in perfectly to the new Acura family and clearly has the Infiniti FX and BMW X6 squarely in its headlights.

Even though CUV sales are tanking across the country, Acura is apparently still set on introducing an opponent to the stylish, yet market-failing BMW X6.  Rumor has it that the Acura CUV will be sharing the chassis and drive train with the recently redesigned 4th generation Acura TL.

While every popular auto site across the web has been publishing camouflaged spy shot photos and speculative illustrations of the upcoming Acura CUV, AcuraBoard.com has what appears to be a fully revealed, yet cropped, profile shot.  This was sent to us from an anonymous tipster.  Please let us know if you know the origins of this photo.
