At the heart of any supercar is its drivetrain and the NSX is no different. Power is supplied by a 500 horsepower twin-turbocharged V6 engine, mated to an electric motor that sends power to the rear wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission. The front wheels are also powered however, utilizing a pair of electric motors mounted in the front of the vehicle. Total system output is rated at 573 horsepower, enough to provide for neck snapping acceleration. With the bulk of the engine weight located behind the driver, but in front of the rear axle, the NSX also turns as well as it goes, its low center of gravity aiding it in achieving excellent cornering speeds. All-wheel drive ensures plenty of grip upon corner exit.
The NSX comes in just one well appointed trim level. Standard features include LED headlamps, Keyless entry, powered and heated side mirrors, dual-zone automatic climate control, a remote garage door opener, a leather trimmed steering wheel, a leather trimmed instrument panel, leather seats, a 7-inch Display Audio system with 8 speakers including a subwoofer, Bluetooth streaming and a Siri Eyes Free mode.
Options on the NSX include Alcantara seats, a variety of wheel designs, carbon-ceramic brakes, a carbon fiber exterior package, that includes a bare carbon fiber roof, an Alcantara headliner, and a premium stereo with SiriusXM radio.

After well over a decade, the Acura NSX nameplate returns to the U.S. marketplace. The 2017 NSX goes back to its roots as the first practical supercar; redefining that concept for the modern age. Acura have thrown everything and the kitchen sink at the NSX to make it the most sophisticated and best performing supercar that's ever been built. With swoopy styling, a low center of gravity and well over 500 horsepower, the 2017 NSX is primed to take on all challengers.
The Acura NSX is a high end sports car, competing with the Audi R8, the BMW i8, the Porsche 911 and the McLaren 570S. Very much in the mold of a modern supercar, the NSX asks drivers to make no compromises, achieving the seemingly impossible by using copious levels of technology. The number of near-600 horsepower supercars that achieve over 20 mpg in the city can be counted on one hand, and the NSX manages to do so despite its all-wheel drivetrain. The NSX will appeal to buyers who care about technology and innovation, but who still have a deep appreciation for heritage.
