How it scores for you10 scores
An everyday-usable hybrid supercar with Honda dependability - the trade is a six-figure price, two seats, and a trunk that barely swallows a duffel.
Reliability69

Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years; 1 of its 4 recalls was serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +4 points for its wider reputation.

Safety50

Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.

Running costs7

About $3,850 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 7% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility0

4.4 cu ft of cargo space — among the smallest of the coupes we track.

Passenger space15

Strict two-seater with a snug cockpit and a 4.4 cu ft trunk.

Driving fun90

573-600 hp hybrid SH-AWD delivers savage acceleration and huge grip; some critics found it less visceral than rivals.

Tech62

Pioneering torque-vectoring hybrid drivetrain, undermined by a parts-bin Honda infotainment unit.

Comfort55

Remarkably civil for a supercar with good visibility and a usable cabin, but firm, loud, and low.

Value retention40

Luxury brands like Acura tend to lose value faster than average.

Capability30

No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
