Honda luxury brand

ACURA

This Japanese automaker’s precision-crafted vehicles share a name with a sharp, pointed object.

The clue "Honda luxury brand" points to Acura, which is the upscale vehicle division created by Honda in 1986. It’s a straightforward definition—no wordplay or tricks—since Acura is Honda’s well-known premium brand, like Toyota has Lexus or Nissan has Infiniti. If you’re familiar with cars, this one’s a giveaway, but even casual solvers might recall seeing Acura dealerships or models like the MDX or TLX. The answer fits neatly as a five-letter response.
