Honda Electric Vision Design previews future NSX supercar

Honda has previewed the much-awaited successor of its NSX supercar via an Electric Vision Design Study at the Monterey Car week in California. The brand has released three pictures that show a sleek, low-set coupe with a forward-cab design, similar to that of the mid-engined NSX. Badged as an Acura, the firm’s US-based luxury brand, the car also features a rear light bar reminiscent of the first-gen NSX.

Its silhouette is very close to the model shown under wraps in May 2022, when Honda confirmed it was working on a high-end, NSX-esque model as part of its high-budget electrification strategy. Our sister publication Autocar UK reported in May 2023 that the firm is poised to reveal a new sportscar in celebration of its 75th anniversary.

Given the model was not shown in full, it seems likely that the concept will be revealed as part of its 75th anniversary celebrations, which would take place in late September.

The second-generation NSX was originally shown as a near-production concept in 2012 – five years before production began – and recently bowed out with the ‘Type S’ special edition.
