Acura took the cover off of a record three new exciting vehicles in its lineup at the 2006 New York International Auto Show. The Javits Center saw the world debut of the new Acura MD-X Concept SUV as well as a production version of the all-new RDX performance luxury SUV. Acura also heralded its upcoming participation to the 2007 American Le Mans Series (ALMS) with the launch of an Acura-powered race car.

The MD-X concept SUV and the RDX premium entry-level SUV represented Acura’s all-new light truck lineup. The aggressively-designed MD-X concept gives an advanced view of the upcoming MDX luxury performance SUV due to go on sale this fall. Meanwhile, the RDX features Acura’s first turbocharged engine and breakthrough Super Handling All-Wheel Drive. The RDX promises the agility and handling of a sport sedan combined with the utility and versatility of an SUV.

Meanwhile, the Acura-powered race car will carry Acura’s marquee at the 2007 American Le Mans Series. The Acura ALMS will participate in the 10-race domestic series which will include 12 hours of Sebring and other road circuits such as Road America, Laguna Seca, and Lime Rock Park along with Audi, Porsche, BMW, Ferrari, Lexus, Aston Martin and Chevrolet.
