Acura Teases Precision EV Concept, Set To Debut August 18 in Monterey
Acura Teases Precision EV Concept, Set To Debut August 18 in Monterey-March 2024

Ok, so here’s the thing: I don’t usually care about concept cars. Typically, if we see one that’s amazing and totally something that a manufacturer should actually build, it never again sees the light of day after it does its little event circuit for a few months. That’s not usually the case with Acura, though.

See, Acura’s concepts have a history of not only being reasonable (aka lacking in insane claims) but reasonably close to production models. That’s why I’m super stoked about the Acura Precision EV concept that the brand is debuting in Monterey, CA, on August 18, during Car Week.

The Precision EV teaser shows a model that shares some design language with the already and models, but presumably without any of those other models’ internal combustion guts. Is it likely to be groundbreaking? Nope, but it is likely to be awesome.

What, other than its looks, can we infer from this short teaser video? Not a whole lot, to be honest, but that won’t stop us from engaging in a little wild speculation.

Neither Honda nor Acura have gotten too deep into the EV thing, with the U.S. only seeing , while Europe and Asia get the . What then will underpin this new EV model? Probably nothing from either of those models because both would come off as underpowered and without a sufficient cruising range for a modern luxury EV.

If Acura wants to be taken seriously with a production EV, it’d need around 300 miles of range and at least 250 horsepower, preferably more, but we’ll have to wait and see what the concept tells us.

The C4 Corvette may not be considered the best edition of the marque, but as today’s drop-top proves, it’s still a pretty — and pretty desirable— car. Let’s see if this manual-equipped C4 is also a pretty good value. I think that for many of you who commented that...

The 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 Is The 911 Honed To Perfection
There are an awful lot of manufacturers out there talking about their motorsports heritage and how their current sports car is really a “racecar for the streets.” When you dig down into it, it’s all smoke and mirrors. Sure, their racecar might use the stock engine block or the...
