Where is Acura made?

Acura cars are made in Japan. Taking the Acura CDX as an example, its body dimensions are 4496mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1615mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2660mm. In terms of power, the CDX offers two powertrain options: a 1.5T engine and a combination of a 2.0L engine with an electric motor. The 1.5T engine in the Acura CDX delivers a maximum power of 134 kW and a maximum torque of 240 Nm, paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 2.0L engine in the Acura CDX produces a maximum power of 158 kW, while the electric motor generates a maximum power of 184 horsepower, matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
As Honda's premium brand, Acura's production layout is quite deliberate. Born in Japan in 1986, it later established a factory in Ohio, USA due to overwhelming popularity in the North American market. Today, mainstay models like the MDX and RDX on the road are predominantly manufactured at Honda's North American plants. However, localization trends have become evident in recent years, with models like the TLX-L and CDX long being produced domestically by GAC Honda, as localized production offers greater flexibility in pricing and configuration adjustments. Ultimately, while this brand maintains pure Japanese heritage, it has long embraced a globalized approach.
