The Acura Vigor: A Forgotten Gem
The Acura Vigor was a mid-size luxury sedan produced by Acura from 1992 to 1994. Although it was only in production for a short time, the Vigor left a lasting impression on car enthusiasts with its unique styling, advanced features, and impressive performance.
Features and Performance
The Acura Vigor was equipped with a 2.5-liter inline-five engine that produced 176 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque, mated to a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. The Vigor also featured a double-wishbone suspension system, which provided exceptional handling and a smooth ride.
Inside, the Vigor boasted advanced features such as a Bose audio system, automatic climate control, and a power moonroof. The interior was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of legroom for both front and rear passengers.
Pricing and Competition
When it was first released, the Acura Vigor had a starting price of around $24,000, which was competitive for a luxury sedan at the time. However, the Vigor faced stiff competition from other mid-size luxury sedans such as the BMW 3-Series and the Lexus ES.
Despite its impressive features and performance, the Vigor struggled to find a foothold in the competitive luxury sedan market, and production was discontinued after just two years.
OEM Alternator Specifications
The Acura Vigor came with a 90-amp alternator as standard. While this was sufficient for most drivers, car audio enthusiasts often found that the stock alternator was not powerful enough to handle their high-powered audio systems.
