Detroit Motor Show

10th January 2007

Honda's Acura ‘Advanced Sports Car Concept’ made its world debut at Detroit. The vehicle provides a preview of the design direction for the successor to the Acura NSX.

The concept incorporates a front-mounted, V10 engine and a new high-performance, rear-wheel-drive based version of Acura’s transmission.

Its low-slung cabin is constructed entirely of tinted glass and sits flush against the body. Door handles are also flush mounted, allowing the sports car to retain a clean and aerodynamic appearance. The vehicle features a carbon fibre underbody and the rear is finished with aggressive quad exhaust pipes and integrated rear diffusers, further communicating its high performance potential.

No decision has yet been made about production of the Advanced Sports Car Concept.
