Acura->ke10 has dropped plans for a new NSX->ke307 sports car, but this doesn't mean the company does not have big plans for the future. And these plans include a new compact car and a new coupe model being added to the line-up.

The new compact model will be based on the next-generation Honda Civic and will be unveiled in the spring of 2012. Acura dropped the compact segment in 2006 when they stopped producing the RSX->ke274. As for the coupe model, Acura is considering re-entering the segment on the TSX platform, but this might take a while.

The other models in the line-up will also be refreshed including the TL->ke1831 which will be redesigned for 2014. The RL->ke310 will never get a RWD V8 version as people might have expected, but Acura has promised other versions instead. A refreshed version will come in 2013. The RDX->ke483 and the MDX->ke1875 will be refreshed for the 2012 model year and the TSX->ke275 will get a station wagon version this fall.
