Acura’s New ‘Adventure-Ready’ SUV Could Resemble Honda’s TrailSports

Honda’s luxury arm also confirmed that it’s currently developing a large eight-passenger SUV.

Acura’s SUV lineup is about to get a lot bigger. Not only will the automaker add its first off-road-capable model since the SLX from the ‘90s, but it’s also currently working on its largest SUV yet. While we don’t yet know what either of these new vehicles will be called, Acura today shared some interesting details about its short-term future.

First, let’s talk about its so-called “adventure-ready” SUV, which the company said will arrive in the first part of 2028. Acura says it’s designed to take the brand into a new segment, and it released a teaser photo that shows a multispoke wheel with what appears to be an all-terrain tire spinning in the dirt. If it wasn’t for the brand’s caliper-inspired logo, we might have confused the image for a shot of the Honda Passport TrailSport’s wheel. Considering Honda and Acura share platforms, there’s a chance that the latter’s new rugged SUV will be heavily related to the former’s TrailSport Range.

The other big news that Acura announced is something that has been rumored for a while. Now, the company has confirmed that it’s currently developing an eight-passenger SUV that will be even larger than the existing three-row mid-size MDX . Since Acura didn’t share a timeline for when its new flagship SUV will go on sale, we’re thinking it will most likely be around 2030, considering that’s when Honda’s newly planned hybrid-only factory is expected to be operational.
