Acura NSX Production Officially Ends
Acura officially ended NSX production Wednesday, the company announced. The last NSX, a Type S painted in matte Gotham Gray, will be sold to a private customer.
The second-generation NSX had an interesting life. Introduced in 2016 to replace the iconic original, it won our Performance Car of the Year award in 2017 thanks to its, at the time, revolutionary three-motor hybrid powertrain and wonderful twin-turbo V-6.
Though sales numbers were dwarfed by competitors, the NSX managed to stick around for over six years, with roughly 1800 cars built, according to carsalesbase.com. A good chunk of those figures come from the NSX Type S, introduced in 2021 in a limited run of 350 cars. The Type S you see here is marked No. 350 of 350.
Just because production of the NSX is over doesn't mean Acura's Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio will go idle. The factory has shifted its focus to the limited production 2023 Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition, available in three optional NSX-derived colors: Curva red, 130R white, and Long Beach blue. The factory will build 100 examples of the car in each shade.
This might not be the last we hear of the NSX, of course. A rumor sparked by an executive suggests Honda might bring back its mid-engine supercar as a purely electric vehicle sometime in the near future. We'll just have to wait and see.
