Model overview

The Honda NSX, sold in North America as the Acura NSX, is a two-seat coupe, mid-engine sports vehicle produced by Honda.

The roots of the NSX trail back to 1984, with the HP-X concept, which was a mid-engined 3.0 L V6 sports car in rear-wheel-drive. Honda tried, to meet or surpass the performance of the V8 Ferrari range while giving reliability and a lower cost. The idea thus developed and had its title modified to NS-X, which held for "New", "Sportscar" "Unknown variable", although the production model debuted as the NSX.

It debuted in 1989 at the Chicago Auto Show and was created in a purpose-made plant in Japan, for sale of 1990. It was available as a coupé and powered by an all-aluminum 3.0 L V6 engine paired to a 5-speed manual transmission.

The new 2020 Acura NSX comes only in a single performance specification and it's powered from a mix of a turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine and electric motors with 573 horsepower and 476 lb-ft of torque.
