Why All Sports Car Lovers Should be Pumped About Acura's 2016 NSX

Acura is definitely a car brand that is associated with luxury. Since 1986, the brand behind the car focused on high-performance, reliability, and style. Acura has been going strong since they started manufacturing vehicles decades ago, but most recently Acura has been getting a lot of attention due to its new, up-and-coming masterpiece: the 2016 NSX.

A great amount of details have been released concerning this beautiful sports car. The last time an NSX came out onto the market was 25 years ago, literally a quarter of a century ago, and it got the NSX track record off to a very good start. 

Here are some of the features and specs of the Acura NSX that will make it stand out from all the other sports cars:

The overall style and aesthetics of the car are amazing. It is definitely a car that will turn some heads. The style and shape of the 2016 NSX hasn’t changed since the NSX concept cars were first exposed. However, with the 2016 NSX, there have been some significant tweaks and adjustments that make it better than ever. For example, compared to the first NSX, the 2016 NSX will be slightly wider and longer. Its space frame is made of high-strength steel, aluminum, and carbon fiber. 

The interior is also something that would make car fanatics salivate. The dashboard sits low and has aluminum features that are covered by padded leather panels in black and red. However, what’s most important can be found under the hood. 

Furthermore, the 2016 NSX comes packed with a turbo charged engine, which is the first time Acura has used this kind of engine since the RDX crossover. More specifically, the engine is a 75-degree, dry-sump V-6 twin-turbocharged engine that is even supplemented by three electric motors to give it more raw boost. Speed junkies have found their match.

Another great feature that makes this NSX stand out from all the other cars is its hybridity. It has hybrid power in the back wheels and electric power up in the front. This feature allows the car to only run out battery power when it is doing speeds up to 50 miles per hour. 

Even though this is one of the more expensive cars out there, the NSX will surely be a car that is worth its salt. It’s stylish design, immense amount of horsepower, and hybrid efficiency, make this a must have for all sports car fans.
