Acura unveiled the Advanced Sedan concept at the 2006
LA Auto Show.
The Advanced Sedan concept was created by Acura's Los
Angeles-based advanced design team to try and, as Dave
Marek, chief designer, Honda R&D Americas, Inc. puts
it, "capture the essence of an ultra luxurious sedan
but give it a striking, mysterious presence to create
a vehicle with a dual personality."
The hood of the Acura Advanced Sedan Concept is accented
with pronounced character lines that culminate in the
aggressive five-sided grille, which contributes to the
sedan's bold presence. The commanding grille is constructed
of polished aluminum and features a cut crystal Acura
emblem. The narrow headlights also double as air intakes
and are positioned low on the bumper, further enhancing
the sedan's already commanding width.
Low to the ground, the Acura Advanced Sedan Concept rides
on large 22 inch front and 23 inch rear tires which are
mounted to custom billet-machined, polished aluminum wheels.
Powerful brake discs and calipers compliment the wheels
and large ducts direct cooling air to the components.
Bold wheel arches and a prominent style line running off
the front arch lend themselves to the concept's imposing
appearance. It's not pretty, but it turns heads.
At the rear, the Advanced Sedan Concept has a flush mounted
rear bumper with a high-mounted stop light integrated
into the center break of the trunk. The jeweled taillights
are pushed to the outer edge of the bumper to further
enhance the vehicle's wide and low appearance, while integrated
dual exhaust outlets complement the sedan's performance-oriented
style.
