2012 Acura NSX - Besides the concept exposed in Detroit examine the destiny NSX supercar, it also reveals the 1st application of Acura’s innovative new Sport Hybrid SH-AWD
(Super Handling All Wheel Drive) system. This system mixes a unique 2
Electric Motor Drive Unit with a bilateral torque adjustable control
system that enables the car to immediately produce negative or positive
torque to the front wheels during cornering. The corporation then
punches inside their up coming generation VTEC 3.5-liter V6 with
direct-injection and a double clutch transmission with built-in electric
motor.
“Like the first Acura NSX, we
will again express high performance through engineering efficiency,”
added Ito, who led the development of Acura’s first NSX supercar. “In
this new era, even as we focus on the fun to drive spirit of the 2012 Acura NSX, I think a supercar must respond positively to environmental responsibilities.”
“This Sport Hybrid SH-AWD system will
make Acura NSX the ultimate expression of Acura’s idea to create synergy
between man and machine,” said Takanobu Ito, president and CEO of Honda
Motor Co., Ltd. “The NSX will make the driver one with the car to
enhance dynamic driving abilities without getting in the way.”
