      There is no such thing as "instant torque", electric engines simply have a lower full-efficiency RPM bound of 0, but seeing as he wasn't even in 0 RPM you can get the same effect with a sufficiently powerful conventional engine as well.

      But Honda took it to Porsche 911 level .. Wich kinda made it so expencive 🥺 the technology inside is amazing. But with all of that comes at a price I would never be able to afford to buy and maintain.

    • @bene1945
      @bene1945 4 года назад +17

      Pute Vasiliauskas overpriced, maybe. Overrated, no. a used NSX right now in Germany cost around 130k, which is 911 991.2 turbo S money or AMG GT R. Would you see 911 or AMG GT once in a week? It‘s more than possible. Would you see one 2017 NSX on the road in a year? I don’t think so.
      Moreover NSX is now discontinued, means it has chance for rapid price hike in future.
      And regarding hybrid powertrain with 3 electric motors, it is a brilliant piece of work, this combination is more advanced than the system that you would find in Porsche 918. yes Porsche 918 is by several years older than NSX, and yes 918 is faster to hit 60 mph (2,6s vs 2,9s by NSX); yet a Porsche 918 has 4,6L V8 Engine and the Price for used one is around 1M.
      So, 130k for a used NSX, a car which will hit 60 mph under 3 seconds, and has a unique hybrid engine is not a high price to pay. The bonus: it is discontinued and you‘d find no other NSX in your neighborhood (if not country).

    - Bloody quick
    - Paint colors
    - Four wheel steering with REAL
    torque vectoring
    - Good visibility
    - Excellent around town and
    backroads
    - Great fuel economy
    - Honda reliability
    Cons:
    - Price
    - Limited storage
    - Cost-cutting trim
    - Dated infotainment system
    Overall a great supercar. With 3 electric motors, exotic styling and a Honda-designed unique chassis, this car is one of the best that money can buy. However, the dated infotainment system and cheap bits in the interior doesn't justify the $150k price tag.

  • @blackchang1981

    I have seen the car in person and it is beautiful. People who are complaining about the interior need to calm down...1) it is a "Performance" vehicle not a luxury vehicle; the car was "primarily" designed as a cheaper alternative to compete with the likes of Ferrari. If you want to keep the cost down you have to make compromises. 2) It is Honda's/Acura's first attempt at making a hi-technology/performance hybrid, Honda decided to push the envelope with this vehicle by utilizing an experimental alternative technology rather than the traditional approach of "light weight bigger engine/displacement" which delivers a combined 500 hp and fuel economy of 21 combined, that alone should make up for shortcomings because name another vehicle that can deliver both 🤔(I'll wait). I personally think those who bad mouth this vehicle probably never seen this car (probably can't afford it either) and aren't willing to give it a chance because it is a "HONDA", if another car brand did something similar, say for example Lexus/Toyota, I think people who be more receptive to this "experimental" car. But since it is an Acura/Honda people want to knick-pic little things plastic interiors and not focus on performance. Smh...to each his own I guess.

      Ur a fucking moron. 200,000$ for a car isn’t competing with anything, a Lamborghini hurucan costs 20k more and blows this car out the park in every single way other than cost to maintain. But if you have 200,000$ to spend on a car, I highly doubt saving 4-5000$ a year on servicing is ur main prioirity. This car should be 70,000 with all options and in brand new factory condition. It’s a horrible price for a mediocre car, which may have been overlooked by branding but it’s a fucking Honda you dipshit. No one pays a premium to own a Honda, their build to be affordable and reliable, not luxurious and beautiful. This car looks nice like a hot wheels car looks like. Cheap and an overpriced toy. Still don’t believe me cause ur a fucking idiot? Look at the Nissan GTR, the closest car to this one, it’s priced 80,000$ less and has far more functions and capabilities than this.

      That's because most fashion designers come from Europe and the rich loves design and fashion over performance.

But this machine is expensive and they should have added premium materials for the international market.
