Pioneer has announced the Heritage Collection, a new line of aftermarket car electronics designed to replicate the aesthetics of the 1980s and 1990s while incorporating modern technology. The collection features the SXT-C10PS single-DIN head unit, which includes a cassette-deck style faceplate that conceals modern USB and Bluetooth capabilities, and the TS-X40SXT box speakers, which draw design inspiration from the 1984 TS-X60 model.

The audio components utilize cellulose fiber membranes and bass-reflex enclosures to provide modern performance within a period-correct visual framework. The head unit is priced at US$499, while the speaker pair is priced at approximately US$299 to US$300. The collection is expected to be available to US buyers by early November 2026, with a debut scheduled for the RADwood NorCal event in California.
