New 2015 Acura NSX Concept With Longitudinally Twin-Turbo V6 Engine


As new experimental sports car, 2015 Acura NSX is officially armed with 3,7L two turbo direct injected V6 engines, dual-clutch transmissions and three electric motors. The engine will be reengineered longitudinally, like Edmunds.com reported. Honda answered months of speculations by giving announcement on Tokyo Motor Show 2013.



For car enthusiasts, it will be strange to see engine is not mounted transversely but 90 degree longitudinally with lithium ion battery pack. Hideki Wakamatsu (Chief Officer of Honda) confirmed that the extensive test has been done for this changed layout design on drive-train configuration to produce high power of 550 hp and dynamic concepts like Ferrari 458 and McLaren Mp4 do.

The three hybrid motors are meant to redirect power from inner to outer when for better handling and performance. All front wheels will get one electric motor and the rest one is motor generator which is integrated right to engine.



Unfortunately, like Honda FCEV the release date of this sport car is not confirmed and it will be produced and introduced officially in 2015. We must be patient to wait the launching of this new hybrid supercar. It is convinced that this sport car will be sophisticated compared to previous generation. Here are some spy photos of 2015 Acura NSX that I get from various online sources.
