Redesigned Hybrid Supercars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Acura NSX Concept Auto Makes a Comeback at NAIAS 2012

— January 15, 2012 — Autos
Honda has revealed its Acura NSX concept car at NAIAS 2012, reviving its NSX supercar after a seven-year break.

The NSX will now be a hybrid vehicle with a VTEC V-6 engine and a dual clutch transmission with an electric motor, which means the comeback of this sporty supercar will be friendly to the environment.

The Acura NSX concept won’t be realized for three years, but will feature Honda’s 'Sport Hybrid Super Handling All Wheel Drive' system, which, with its two electric engines, makes it almost impossible to over-steer.

The NSX, despite still being a concept to the general public, will be featured in 'The Avengers' starring Robert Downey Jr. hitting theaters in May 2012.
