Honda Cars : Acura has been secretly developing Mid-Engine – AWD baby NSX | 2013 New Honda Car Reviews 0

I've known this for awhile....

Secrets out! Motor Trend recently reported that Acura has been developing a smaller more agile NSX along with the regular NSX for quite some time now.   No, it’s not an S2000 successor, but a Mid-Engine, AWD car that is set to blow the doors off it’s competition, and one that could actually save the NSX project all together.


When Acura first started developing this car, it had a major “Maybe” factor.  At first it was just a few R&D ideas thrown together.  But soon Acura came to the realization that this project could actually work.

We don’t have any concrete information on this car as of yet, but the “Baby NSX” is likely to be powered by a Turbo-Charged, Direct injection engine.  Developing the big NSX wasn’t all a waste though, as Acura will be using many of the technologies from that project and directly fuse it to the it’s baby brother.   Think of it as a smaller Hybrid of two NSX’s.   This will also help recoup some of the costs involved in the years spent R&D’s the bigger car.

Expect to see the smaller NSX on dealer lots by 2017 with a price range between $50,000 & $60,000.  Not bad!
