McGrath Acura of Westmont

What McGrath Acura of Westmont does

McGrath Acura of Westmont is an authorized Acura franchise dealership located at 400 E Ogden Ave in Westmont, Illinois, founded in 1994 and operating as part of the McGrath Automotive Group. The dealership sells new Acura vehicles across the full brand lineup, including the MDX (midsize three-row SUV), RDX (compact SUV), ADX (subcompact SUV, new for 2025), Integra (compact liftback), TLX (midsize sedan), and ZDX (electric SUV), along with Type S performance variants. Complementary offerings include Certified Pre-Owned vehicles with a 182-point inspection and 24-month/100,000-mile warranty, multi-make used inventory, factory-trained service and maintenance, genuine OEM parts, and financing through Acura Financial Services and a regional bank/credit union network.

The underlying technology platform is Acura's vehicle technology stack rather than proprietary dealer technology: AcuraWatch (standard ADAS suite including Collision Mitigation Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Lane Keeping Assist, and Blind Spot Information), Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD, a torque-vectoring AWD system capable of sending up to 70% of torque to the rear axle and 100% of that rear torque to either wheel), ELS Studio premium audio, the True Touchpad Interface infotainment system, and Google Built-in (Google Maps, Assistant, Play Store) on ADX and ZDX models. Connected services run through AcuraLink, with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM, and HD Radio integrated across the lineup.

The business model is a traditional franchise dealership revenue stack: one-time new and used vehicle sales (172 new units and 22 CPO units in current inventory), transaction-fee revenue from finance and insurance products, and recurring service and parts revenue from certified maintenance and OEM parts. The go-to-market motion is sales-led with a physical showroom at the Westmont location, a website with inventory browsing and online scheduling/financing applications, and phone-based sales and service support. The dealership serves Chicagoland luxury vehicle buyers across DuPage County and the western suburbs (Westmont, Oak Brook, Downers Grove, Naperville, Hinsdale, Burr Ridge, Elmhurst), with cross-store vehicle sourcing available through sister McGrath Acura dealerships in Morton Grove and Downtown Chicago. It is a twenty-time Acura Precision Team award winner.

Direct peers

• Pauly Acura: Acura franchise dealer in Highland Park, IL serving Chicago's North Shore. Comparable new/used Acura franchise model with integrated service, though operating in a distinct affluent geographic segment.
• Joe Rizza Acura: Acura dealership in Orland Park, IL serving Chicago's south suburbs. Comparable as a single-brand Acura franchise with same sales-service-parts-F&I structure, though operating in a different catchment.
• Arlington Acura: Independent Acura franchise dealer in Arlington Heights, IL. Comparable as a new/used Acura retailer serving Chicago's northwest suburbs, with the same full-service sales, service, parts, and F&I model.
• McGrath Acura Downtown Chicago: Third McGrath Automotive Group Acura store, located in downtown Chicago. Direct franchise peer with shared sourcing, branding, and Precision Team award standards, competing for the same Chicagoland luxury buyer pool.
• McGrath Acura of Morton Grove: Sister Acura dealership within the McGrath Automotive Group, operating in the northern Chicago suburb of Morton Grove. Directly comparable as a same-brand franchise dealer under the same parent organization, with shared inventory sourcing and operational playbook.
• Ed Napleton Acura Kia: Multi-brand Acura dealer in the western Chicago suburbs (West Chicago / Lisle). Comparable as a full-line Acura franchise with new, CPO, and used inventory plus factory service, operating in overlapping Chicagoland territory.

Broad incumbents

• CarMax: Largest US used vehicle retailer with a no-haggle multi-brand model. Comparable as a competitor for used car buyers and trade-in vehicles in the Chicagoland market, though business model and absence of new franchise differ.
• AutoNation: Large publicly-traded dealership group operating franchised new vehicle stores across multiple brands including luxury imports. Comparable in the franchise dealer business model and after-sales service revenue structure, but at far greater scale and multi-brand.

Emerging players

• Carvana: Online used vehicle retailer with home delivery and vending machine pickup. Competes for used car discovery and consideration in the Chicagoland market, but does not offer new franchise vehicles, service, or parts.

Regional players

• Muller Acura of Merrillville: Acura franchise dealer in Merrillville, Indiana serving the broader Chicagoland market from the southeast. Comparable brand-franchise model with similar sales/service/parts integration, but competing from a different state geography.
