The 2017 Acura NSX: Not a Typical Supercar

The Acura NSX is different from other supercars. Unlike other traditionally impractical body designs, overbearing engines and the sensitive handling of a Lamborghini or Ferrari, the NSX perfectly pairs luxury and sport. 

Available at an Acura dealership near you starting this spring, the NSX is a unique supercar that speaks to practicality and appeals to driving enthusiasts. The 2017 NSX is a hybrid that features twin-turbo gasoline engines and three electrical motors. The hybrid is ideal for shorter distance driving to your grocer in Utah or elsewhere, while the twin turbos make freeway driving an exciting and nearly legal thrill ride. 

The NSX isn’t like the average supercar because of its subtleties. As The Verge says, “the sudden and violent G forces battering your body, the noise banging your eardrums, the exaggerated too-much-is-never-enough styling — all of that is muted or transformed.” Acura has revolutionized the design of the supercar by creating a vehicle that focuses on performance, style, comfort and luxury, rather than looks alone.  

Consumers looking for the NSX at an Acura dealership in Utah or elsewhere can expect to find a smart and functional sports car. With quick and flawless adjustments, the NSX shifts into one of four driving modes: Sport, Sport Plus, Quiet and Track. Each of the driving modes creates driving and handling conditions curtailed to the driver’s specific needs and road conditions. 

Motortrend says the NSX’s internal computer performs the job of several mechanics at an Acura dealership in seconds. “The computer can make the kind of changes that would normally require putting a car on a lift and replacing its shocks, springs, and anti-roll bars; installing a different steering rack; and swapping the diffs in its all-wheel-drive system.” 

The Acura NSX features gentler styling and improved handling that make it an unprecedented supercar for drivers from Utah to the East Coast. Its plush interior conforms to the size and shape of its driver, while extra headroom and increased visibility makes the NSX more comfortable to drive than traditional supercars. 

Unlike its competitors, the NSX’s tires are outfitted to improve drive control and provide for a smoother ride. Acura’s sound control technology—used in everything from its engine design to windshield glass—also provides for a quieter, more luxurious ride. 

As a result of the diverse seasons in Utah, vehicles need to be able to perform in various weather and road conditions. Available at an Acura dealership in 2016 with its unique combination of drive modes and handling, the NSX meets and exceeds these driver needs.
