Honda and Pininfarina have restored the HP-X, Honda’s first concept car, which was revealed at the Turin Motor Show in 1984.
With a radical design and a 2.0-liter V-6 engine mounted in the middle, the HP-X features a wedge-shaped body, a Perspex canopy that lifts, and a two-tone paint job. The car, measuring just 4.16 meters long and 1.11 meters high, stands out for its futuristic and aerodynamic look.
The restored HP-X will be displayed at the 2024 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, where it will compete in the “Concept and Prototype Wedge-Shaped Cars” category.

Although it never went into production, the HP-X influenced the development of the iconic NSX, which was sold globally as both a Honda and an Acura in the U.S. The return of the HP-X to the public marks a celebration of 1980s automotive innovation and design.
