Acura

The Acura Type S concept has been unveiled ahead of its in-the-flesh debut at Monterey Car Week. Acura says the new concept previews the next-generation TLX Type S sedan. Regular flavours of the second-generation TLX are rumoured to debut next year. With its slinky silhouette, smooth surfaces and sharp creases, the Type S is latest evolution of Acura's "precision crafted" design language.

Acura, premium division of Japanese brand Honda, is said to be preparing something special for the 2019 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. In a new report by the USA's Car and Driver, it's claimed Acura will show a production-ready concept at the event, inspired by the Precision concept shown at the 2016 Detroit motor show (pictured).

Honda has released initial details of its exhibit for the Beijing motor show later this month, including world premieres of two new concepts and the reveal of the Acura CDX Hybrid. The Japanese manufacturer will have a joint booth for both of its partner ventures in the Chinese market – Dongfeng Honda and GAC Honda – headlined by a concept previewing an upcoming China-exclusive EV model, and an all-new sedan concept, which at this stage remains unnamed.
