Acura RSX


The Acura RSX is an automobile nameplate used by Honda for its upmarket brand Acura. The nameplate has been used for two different car models:

Liftback coupe (DC5; 2001)

The Integra-based RSX was introduced on July 2, 2001 as a replacement for the long-running Acura Integra nameplate. The name was a part of Acura's naming scheme changing the names of its models from recognizable names like "Integra" or "Legend" to alphabetical designations in order for buyers to build more recognition to the marque, and not the individual cars. In the US, it was available in two models: the base model, simply named RSX, and the Type-S.

Coupe SUV (2026)

The revival of the RSX nameplate was announced on January 15, 2025 as a battery electric coupe SUV. Honda stated it would slot below the ZDX in the lineup. Unlike the ZDX which built on the General Motors BEV3 platform, the RSX will be built on Honda's own Zero platform. The prototype model was introduced at the Monterey Car Week in Monterey, California in August 2025. It is slated to begin production at Honda's Marysville Auto Plant in Marysville, Ohio in early 2026.
