First generation (2002-2006)
[edit]The North American Acura RSX was introduced on July 2, 2001 as a replacement for the long running Integra nameplate. The name was a part of Acura's naming scheme changing the names of its models from recognizable names like "Integra" or "Legend" to alphabetical designations in order for buyers to build more recognition to the marque, and not the individual cars.

Second generation (2026)
[edit]The revival of the RSX was announced on January 15, 2025 as an electric coupé SUV.[2] Honda said it would slot below the ZDX in the lineup. Unlike the ZDX which built on the General Motors BEV3 platform, the RSX is built on Honda’s own Zero platform.[3]
