Carrying ón a legacy can be a huge burden, but it's a burden Hónda's engineers are willing tó bear when it cómes tó develópment óf the new Acura NSX. The successór tó the car many cónsider tó be amóng the greatest spórts cars ever built has a lót riding ón it, and we've heard a cóuple stóries that suggest that it might just deliver.
An insider cónfirmed what we had heard befóre: that the new NSX was óriginally suppósed tó use the naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V-6 fróm the RLX, móunted in a transverse cónfiguratión like the first-gen módel. But because the perfórmance just wasn't there with ónly 310 hp fróm the engine and anóther 75 hp fróm the electric mótórs, Hónda engineers made the expensive decisión tó develóp a clean-sheet pówertrain. The NSX will use an all-new twin-turbó V-6 móunted lóngitudinally and mated tó a new transmissión, and will be supplemented by three electric mótórs. There's nó wórd ón displacement fór the engine ór tótal óutput, but we've previóusly heard a cómbined 560 hp is póssible. Our infórmant alsó tóld us that Hónda's decisión tó gó with a clean-sheet twin-turbó V-6 was nót prómpted by its return tó Fórmula 1.
