At the Detroit Motor Show 2013, Acura lifted the veil of the latest NSX concept. In 2012, Acura launched the first concept of the upcoming NSX. At that time, Acura announced that the NSX featured a 3.5-liter V-6 VTEC engine that sat in the middle of the car. The production model, in a brilliant NSX Red finish, took the stage with a grunt of its twin-turbo engine.
The next generation NSX exhibits the style, design and specifications of the Acura mid-engine sports hybrid supercar production, and Acura announced the all-new vehicle design and performance key details. Developed under the concept of a "human-centered supercar", a car that puts the driver first in all aspects of its design, the next generation of NSX will take advantage of its state-of-the-art supercar power unit, Body and chassis Provide an exceptionally intuitive and immediate response to driver inputs.
With the NSX, that connection will be intense and immediate. "
As the pinnacle of Acura's performance and prestige, the NSX was introduced in the auto show under the theme of "Precision Hand-crafted Performance." The development of the next generation of NSX, driven by precision performance, has led to a clean sheet design, which involved nearly three years of intensive development effort by a global design and engineering team led by engineers in the center Development in Raymond, Ohio.
"The NSX delivers superior superstar performance with zero retard acceleration and inspiring driving dynamics."
Dynamic Exterior Design Interwoven
"The new NSX is a product of what we call" Interwoven Dynamic "design," said Michelle Christensen, NSX's leading exterior design project. The NSX body has classic low and wide proportions, married to modern and seductive surfaces, an aggressive front design and tail lights that pays homage to the original NSX. "In line with the concept of" supercar human-centered "development, the NSX was designed from the inside out with an inflexible focus on the driver," said Johnathan Norman, NSX interior design leader of the project. Hybrid sports power unit
In keeping with the founding philosophy of the original NSX, the new NSX generation is designed to provide a new sporty one that maximizes the driver's capabilities, delivering an exceptionally intuitive and trust-inspiring response "at the driver's will."
At the heart of the NSX's performance capabilities is a new 75-degree DOHC V6 engine, with two turbochargers coupled to a 9-speed DCT developed by Acura. The rear-drive electric motor, housed between the engine and the transmission, supports acceleration, braking and transmission change performance. The front wheels of the NSX are powered by two independent high-performance electric motors that offer instantaneous torque response and dynamic torque distribution from left to right.
The NSX uses its front electric motors for torque vector dynamics, in addition to improving acceleration and braking performance. Advanced multi-material body
Also in keeping with the legacy of NSX, the world's first aluminum supercar, the new NSX features an innovative multi-material body design with the world's first applications of materials and construction processes.
The NSX body uses a space frame design-an internal frame constructed of aluminum, ultra-high strength steel and other advanced materials. Advanced Sports Package
