The vehicle is imagined with a wide stance despite its two-person layout that lends a balanced, road-hugging experience that's enhanced with a continuous volume for the cabin. The vehicle puts panoramic smoked glass in the spotlight to maximize light and visuals, while the dual-hinge [butterfly doors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-iconic) and large 22-inch wheels take up a fair bit of the side profile. The Acura Nexera Vision concept is imagined with a [monochromatic interior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aston-martin-veil-concept) that includes recycled aluminum, forged carbon, Alcantara fabric throughout and a CircuLeather that has been sustainably produced.
