Acura, luxury arm of Honda, has teased its upcoming Type S concept ahead of a full reveal at Monterey Car Week on August 15. The marque released the above image and a shadowy preview video (below), showing a vehicle "with a powerful stance and expressive silhouette".

The updated Honda NSX – known in other markets as the Acura NSX – has been revealed at Monterey Car Week, ahead of an Australian launch in "early 2019". Key changes include a new Thermal Orange Pearl exterior paint option (pictured), which the company says pays homage to 30 years of Acura race cars with orange-accented liveries. Matching orange brake calipers can now be optioned, too.

The Acura RDX Prototype has been unveiled at the 2018 Detroit motor show, and previews the third generation version of the crossover vehicle. As with earlier Prototype models from Honda and Acura, not much will change between the show car and the production model, although we do expect the latter to feature larger wing mirrors. The five-seat RDX has a 30mm wider track, and 64mm longer wheelbase than the current model, although we don't yet know the car's exact dimensions.

Images of a new compact SUV expected to be known as the Acura CDX, have surfaced online ahead of a planned Beijing motor show unveiling this week. The so-called CDX takes a number of its styling cues from the recently-facelifted Acura MDX, showing a similar swooping roofline and the distinctive diamond grille that was designed for the MDX to introduce a much more sporty and aggressive demeanor.

Honda’s luxury arm Acura will use the 2016 Detroit auto show to unveil a sharp new concept, dubbed Precision. Acura says the new show car will preview the next stage in its evolving brand styling, informing the look of its future offerings. Dave Marek, creative director for Acura, said that the concept is named for the company’s new ‘precision crafted performance’ strategy, which he says will signal a “stronger and sharper focus” on styling in the future.
