Review and specifications
2027 Acura RSX
The Acura RSX from the early 2000s was a compact, sporty coupe. This isn’t that same Acura. The new RSX, scheduled to hit dealerships in the second half of 2026, will be an electric crossover SUV. While details are scarce now, we know that the RSX Prototype includes dual-motor all-wheel drive and the ability to power a home during a power outage. The new RSX will also debut ASIMO OS, a new in-car infotainment operating system developed by Acura’s parent company Honda and named for Honda’s beloved humanoid robot. This new crossover will be the first vehicle built on a new EV platform engineered entirely by Honda that will underpin new Acura and Honda electric models to come. Acura will manufacture the RSX at its factory in Ohio.

Brand context
About Acura
Most Acuras are more luxurious and higher-priced versions of vehicles made by Honda, its parent company, similar to Lexus and Toyota or Infiniti and Nissan. In Acura’s case, the formula usually works well. Its sedans and SUVs have earned Consumer Reports’ recommendations for cabin comfort, handling, above-average reliability, and engines with smooth power delivery. Like Honda, Acura’s lineup is mainly SUVs, but includes some sedans. The Integra is an upgraded version of the Honda Civic, and competes with the most affordable vehicles from manufacturers like Audi and BMW. The TLX is similar, but slightly larger and more expensive. Acura’s SUVs range from midsized and three-row down to compact and two-row. Across the lineup, fuel economy is usually average. Despite Honda’s success with the technology, Acura sells no hybrids. For both new and used, reliability can vary between models, but the better options often near the top of our rankings.
