Acura Sales Data, Trends, Analysis & Current Lineup for the U.S Automotive Market

This is your hub for all of the Acura sales data for the U.S market. If you live outside the United States you may not even know the Acura brand. Acura is the premium brand for Honda. Launched in 1986 in the United States and Canada, the Acura brand has since found its way to Russia, China and Kuwait also. As expected, all Acura models are based on Honda platforms and running gear, with tweaks made to increase performance and quality to fit the luxury brand pricing and positioning. In the United States, Acura imports some models from Japan, while other models for the US market are locally produced in Honda’s factories throughout the U.S. In its first few years of existence, Acura was among the best-selling luxury marques in the US. Since then we have seen Lexus, Infiniti and the onslaught of German brands that have come along and put some serious pressure on Acura sales in the last decade or so.

Acura US Sales Figures & Recent Highlights

  • 2022 US Acura Sales – Honda blamed the weak performance in America in 2022 on supply rather than demand problems. Although sales were significantly stronger towards the end of the year, American Honda expects supply issues to continue into 2023 but to a much lesser degree. This went for both the Acura and Honda brands. Overall, 2022 was a poor year for Acura, selling just 102k cars in the United States, down 35% from 2023 and a 40% decrease in market share. The brand is struggling to keep up.
  • 2021 US Acura Sales – Acura brand vehicle sales in the US in 2021 total 157,408 (+14.9%) units including 40,338 (+10.9%) passenger cars and 117,070 (+16.4%) trucks. The MSX and RDX were the most-popular Acura models in the US in 2021. Acura finished 2021 on a high note with increased MDX inventory leading Acura SUVs to all-time best annual US sales of 117,070 despite difficult supply constraints. The MDX had its 2nd best annual sales result, topping 60,000 units for the first time since 2014.
  • 2020 US Acura Sales – In 2020, Honda and Acura had lower car and truck sales in the USA. Acura SUV sales topped 100,000 units for the 7th straight year. RDX sales surpassed the 50,000 mark for the 6th consecutive year with total sales of 52,785 units in 2020.
  • Prior to 2020 US Acura Sales – The Honda-owned premium brand hit its peak in the U.S. market in 2005 with 209,610 sales. Since the Great Recession ended, the sales of Acura brand has hovered in the 150,000 – to 200,000-unit range annually. Just like other luxury brands in the US, Acura is also seeing a sharp decline in its car sales as more and more buyers are leaning on to light trucks. Today, Acura hopes to gain volume in the next couple of years in the US market as it saw its sales dipped slightly from 2018. They are looking to attract a wider range of customers with their new Acura RDX which was relaunched in the US in 2018.
