Honda announced today that it will build the new 2013 Acura ILX in Indiana and that the production will start in the spring of 2012. According to the manufacturer, the new ILX will be Acura's first-ever hybrid model and will also be the first model to be produced in Indiana. Moreover, the new car will be positioned at the gateway to the Acura lineup. Still, the ILX will not be available only as a hybrid as Acura will also offer a gasoline version.
The 2013 Acura ILX will be officially introduced at the 2012 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit during media preview days. Still, this will not be the only surprise, as Acura will also bring a new RDX sport-utility vehicle and a concept version of the next-generation Acura NSX supercar.
"Building this all-new Acura vehicle as the exclusive global source is a big responsibility for our associates," said HMIN President Jun Nishimoto. "I am very proud of what our Indiana team has accomplished in such a short time, and we have great confidence in our ability to produce a world-class luxury vehicle that exceeds the expectations of Acura customers."
