Acura Nexera Vision Concept (2026)
Concept car · 2026
A two-seat design study for Acura's next design language
Marking Acura's 40th anniversary, the Nexera Vision is a two-seat design study from the Acura Design California studio in Los Angeles, led by creative director Yasutake Tsuchida. It has a long-nose, short-deck silhouette with large dual-hinge butterfly doors, fixed racing-style bucket seats molded into the structure, and a yoke-style steering wheel and pedal box that move to the driver rather than the other way around. Its phantom lighting signature, hidden inside sculpted bodywork, is confirmed for production on the next-generation RDX Hybrid. Acura has stated the Nexera Vision itself is a design study rather than a preview of a production sports car, and its powertrain has not been officially disclosed. It debuted at The Quail on August 14, 2026, and was shown on the Pebble Beach Concept Lawn on August 16.
