A Hybrid Supercar with Three Electric Motors The 2016 NSX is a hybrid supercar, featuring a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 paired with three electric motors—two at the front for torque vectoring and one at the rear for extra power.
First NSX with All-Wheel Drive Unlike the first-generation NSX, the 2016 model comes with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD), improving traction and cornering capabilities.
Total Power Output of 573 HP The V6 engine (500 hp) and three electric motors (73 hp combined) deliver a total output of 573 horsepower and 645 Nm (476 lb-ft) of torque.
Developed with Input from Ayrton Senna’s Legacy While Ayrton Senna wasn’t directly involved in the new NSX’s development (as he was with the first-gen), Honda engineers ensured it maintained a driver-focused philosophy inspired by his feedback.
9-Speed Dual-Clutch Transmission The NSX features a 9-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, enabling lightning-fast gear shifts and better fuel efficiency.
Launch Control for Blistering Acceleration With Launch Control, the NSX can accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 2.9 seconds, making it one of the fastest hybrid supercars of its time.
Active Aerodynamics Without a Spoiler The NSX uses active aerodynamics, including air vents, underbody diffusers, and an integrated rear wing, eliminating the need for a large fixed spoiler.
Hand-Built in the U.S. Unlike the first-gen NSX, which was built in Japan, the 2016 NSX was designed, developed, and manufactured in the U.S., at the Performance Manufacturing Center in Ohio.
Four Drive Modes for Different Driving Styles The NSX offers Quiet, Sport, Sport+, and Track modes, allowing drivers to adjust throttle response, suspension, and sound depending on their preference.
A Rare and Underrated Supercar Despite its advanced technology and performance, the 2016-2022 NSX never sold in large numbers, making it a rare and potentially collectible hybrid supercar.

The second-gen NSX blends a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 (500hp) with three electric motors for 573hp combined.
A tech marvel, but its hybrid complexity creates unique depreciation patterns.
