The 2026 Acura lineup is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in recent years, featuring advanced EV technology, thoughtful redesigns, and the potential debut of new hybrid variants. Whether you’re looking for a high-performance luxury sedan, a tech-forward SUV, or a cutting-edge electric vehicle, the future of Acura has something for everyone. At DCH Tustin Acura, we’re here to break down what you can expect from the upcoming Acura model year.
2026 Acura RSX – A New All-Electric Coupe SUV
The all-new Acura RSX is expected to be a major step forward in Acura’s electrification efforts. This all-electric SUV will offer a sleek, coupe-like design and is being built on Honda’s in-house EV platform, completely separate from the GM-based architecture used in the ZDX. Manufactured at Honda’s new EV Hub in Ohio, the RSX will also debut the next-generation ASIMO OS, offering seamless over-the-air updates and integrated software enhancements for a more personalized driving experience.
With an estimated range around 350 miles, the RSX is expected to compete with other premium EVs while delivering the driving dynamics and luxury touches Acura drivers love. The RSX will also feature cutting-edge safety and infotainment technology, bringing new levels of connectivity to the Acura lineup.
2026 Acura TLX – Bold Redesign and Smarter Tech
One of Acura’s flagship sedans, the TLX, is expected to receive a substantial redesign for 2026. Spy shots and reports suggest a more aggressive front-end styling, thinner LED headlights, and a sleek, fastback-inspired roofline—drawing inspiration from the sporty Integra. Inside, expect a refreshed digital display, updated infotainment system, and improved interior materials across all trims.
A hybrid TLX may also be in the works, offering greater efficiency while still delivering the performance the TLX is known for. This model will continue to appeal to drivers in Tustin who want luxury and sportiness in a smart, refined package.
2026 Acura RDX – Reliable Performance, With Potential Hybrid
The RDX is expected to return for 2026 without major visual changes, but updates to its tech and safety suite are highly likely. This compact luxury SUV has always been a favorite for Orange County drivers, thanks to its versatility and smooth ride quality.
A hybrid powertrain option may be added to the lineup, allowing the RDX to offer more eco-friendly performance without compromising on comfort. This addition would give drivers in Tustin another fuel-efficient alternative as California continues pushing toward cleaner transportation solutions.
2026 Acura MDX – Enhanced Luxury in a Three-Row SUV
The MDX remains one of Acura’s best-selling models, and it’s expected to carry over into 2026 with several feature enhancements and possibly a hybrid variant. As a three-row luxury SUV, the MDX continues to offer practicality, refined driving manners, and upscale styling for growing families and professionals alike.
Expect minor design tweaks, upgraded materials, and improvements to the AcuraWatch™ safety system, which will likely come standard on all trims. With its strong V6 engine and available SH-AWD®, the MDX delivers a balanced blend of utility and sophistication.
2026 Acura Integra – Continuing a Legacy of Sporty Innovation
The popular Acura Integra will continue into 2026 with its current lineup of trims, including the base, A-Spec, A-Spec with Technology, and the high-performance Type S. This hatchback-style sedan has quickly become a fan favorite for its bold styling, manual transmission option, and everyday usability.
Rumors suggest that a hybrid Integra may be introduced to the lineup, giving drivers in Tustin a performance-focused vehicle with a more efficient powertrain. The Integra will maintain its position as the go-to choice for drivers seeking engaging performance with a practical edge.
2026 Acura ZDX and ADX – EV and Hybrid Expansion
The ZDX, Acura’s flagship all-electric SUV, returns in 2026 offering powerful electric performance, fast charging capability, and advanced tech features through its Google-based infotainment system. It’s a top pick for drivers who want luxury with zero emissions.
The ADX, expected to arrive in 2026 as well, will offer a new entry point into Acura’s growing SUV family. Early reports suggest it could be available with a hybrid powertrain, balancing fuel savings with premium Acura features in a smaller, city-friendly format.
New Technology & Safety Features Across the Lineup
Acura is continuing to lead in innovation with the rollout of Honda’s ASIMO OS in new EVs like the RSX. This system allows for smarter driver assistance, better personalization, and remote updates that ensure your Acura evolves with you.
Additionally, the AcuraWatch™ suite is expected to be standard across all 2026 models. This includes key safety features like adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, forward collision warning, and more—giving Tustin drivers added peace of mind on every drive.
