Acura NSX EV: What we know so far

The Acura NSX EV isn't coming soon but here's what we know

Honda NSX, Mondial Paris Motor Show 2018

After Acura promised a future Acura NSX EV in 2021, auto enthusiasts have been waiting with bated breath. In the past three years, very little has been shared. Still, the brand hinted that since the first generation NSX was a gas vehicle and the second generation was a hybrid, the third generation of the NSX model would be a fully electric vehicle.

We also know that the NSX model will feature Acura's "electric vision" as part of its design. This makes the model more powerful, sexier, and, of course, fully electric. But what else do we know? In this article, we've discussed what we know so far about the Acura NSX EV, including its rumored release date! Let's dive in.

Aston Martin doubles down on ICE with new V12 engine: All will be vanquished

Aston Martin introduces a new era of V12 gas engines

Aston Martin launches a new V12 engine for upcoming flagship and limited edition models.

Calling it "The Dawn of A New V12 Era," Aston Martin unveiled a new V12 engine on May 1, 2024. The 12-cylinder turbocharged engine will power upcoming flagship and limited edition models beginning later in 2024.

Tesla unleashes the Model 3 Performance: More than the sum of its parts

The fastest small Tesla is a bargain speedster

Earlier in 2024, Tesla refreshed the Model 3 rear-wheel drive and dual-motor AWD versions but did not update the Model 3 Performance variant. The wait is over, and with Tesla's recent price reductions, the refreshed Model 3 Performance is an amazing deal for a car with sub-3-second 0-60 mph acceleration and nearly 300 miles of range.
Why the Tesla Model 3 Performance matters so much

The Tesla Model 3 Performance fills a void in the existing lineup since the January 2024 refresh. The update included new headlight and taillight designs and new color choices, including the Ultra Red in the Model 3 Performance photo above. The new Model 3s also gained ventilated front seats, an 8-inch display for rear-seat passengers, a quieter cabin, and more luxurious seating. The updates were welcome, but removing the Performance trim from Tesla's online order sheet disappointed buyers who wanted even more speed than the RWD and standard dual-motor AWD versions.
