Which country is Acura from?

Acura is from Japan, and it is a high-end luxury brand under Honda. Its logo features a mechanical caliper, and its main models include the MDX, RLX, RDX, and ZDX. Taking the MDX as an example, its dimensions are 4985mm in length, 1975mm in width, and 1715mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2820mm. The car is powered by one engine and three electric motors, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The diamond-shaped pentagon grille on the front has gradually become a family signature, offering high recognition and a strong three-dimensional effect. The sharp-looking headlights continue the design style of the NSX, featuring LED lighting and standard headlight washers.
I remember my brother bought a used Acura MDX and specifically researched it back then. This brand is actually Honda's Japanese premium line, born in the mid-1980s in the US. At that time, Japanese automakers wanted to break into the North American luxury market, so they established a local R&D center there. The first model, the Legend, was even a sister car to the Honda Legend. Although it's now sold globally, if you look at its caliper-inspired logo design, the inspiration comes from a stylized transformation of Honda's H emblem – at its core, it still carries Japanese DNA. It sells particularly well in North America, especially the RDX, which you see everywhere in Canada.
