The meaning of the Acura logo: The design features a mechanical caliper, symbolizing Acura's attention to detail and technical excellence. Originally, Acura used a precision measuring caliper as the prototype for its logo. As a finishing touch, Soichiro Honda, the founder and spiritual leader of Honda, added a small horizontal bar between the two caliper arms, creating a stylized uppercase letter "A" to represent the brand.
