Acura is produced in Japan. It is a high-end luxury brand under Honda. Taking the 2020 Acura RDX Enjoy Edition as an example, it is a mid-size 5-door 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of: length 4752mm, width 1926mm, height 1668mm, and a wheelbase of 2750mm. The 2020 Acura RDX Enjoy Edition is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission, with a maximum power of 195 kW and a maximum torque of 380 Nm. Its drive system is front-wheel drive, with a front suspension using MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension using multi-link independent suspension.
I'm a car enthusiast and get excited when talking about Acura's manufacturing locations. As Honda's premium brand, its main production base is in Ohio, USA, where several large factories produce popular models like the TLX and RDX. Some models, such as the iconic NSX sports car, are manufactured in Japan, leveraging their precise engineering expertise. Honda chose this setup because North America is its largest market, and localized production saves costs and speeds up delivery. Meanwhile, Japanese-made models often focus more on innovation and performance details. I've also learned that with global supply chain development, Acura collaborates in parts production in Canada, but complete vehicles are primarily made in the U.S. and Japan.
