We like to think of Acura as Honda’s sexier sister. She’s got the brains, she’s got the body, and an engine that will really move you. She’s the girl you wish you were dating.
In 1986, Acura debuted in the US as the first Japanese luxury car brand. Owned by Honda, Acura built a platform of vehicles around aggressive design, an engine with some muscle, and the latest technology, Acura continues to be a top luxury import for the savvy consumer. Acura also performs well in several motorsport circuits, a heritage they used to deliver their own supercar, the NSX. Innovation is the name of the game, a game Acura plays with style.
