Not your typical hybrid

The term “hybrid” generally doesn’t lead to thoughts of carving up winding roads and exhilarating zero-to-60-mph sprints. However, the 2019 Acura NSX is not your typical hybrid vehicle. Instead of being tuned for fuel economy, the 2019 Acura NSX’s electrified powertrain is tuned for performance, delivering a mighty 573 hp and a three-second zero-to-60 time. On top of its legendary performance, the 2019 NSX puts you in the lap of luxury with its well-appointed cabin and plethora of high-tech features that are sure to please you.

5 reasons to buy the 2019 Acura NSX

1. Performance meets proficiency 

The 2019 Acura NSX comes with a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 engine and electric motors that deliver a combined 573 hp to all four wheels. This combination results in a blistering three-second gallop to 60 mph. This puts it squarely in the mix with many of the most powerful supercars. Where the 2019 NSX sets itself apart is its fuel economy. Sure, it’s no Toyota Prius, but it delivers an EPA-estimated 21 mpg city, 22 mpg highway, and 21 mpg combined.

2. Attention-grabbing looks 

The 2019 Acura NSX boasts a stunning design that features all the curves, creases, and angles you expect from a vehicle that delivers equally sharp performance. It’s sure to attract plenty of attention, whether you’re on the open road or just sitting in a parking lot. Inside, the NSX is fairly drama-free, with a clean, tech-focused design covered in upscale leather upholstery. You can further dress up this interior with the optional carbon-fiber trim package. 

3. Tons of features 

The 2019 Acura NSX livers up to its Acura nameplate with loads of upscale features inside the cabin. All 2019 NSX models come standard with all the features you’d expect from a luxury car. For those seeking premium comfort, the NSX's leather and Alcantara seats, along with its leather-trimmed instrument panel, add an extra dose of class. If you're a tech-savvy person, the NSX's seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto compatibility, Bluetooth® connectivity, and a pair of USB ports are sure to please. And for audiophiles, the NSX comes standard with an eight-speaker audio system with HD radio. 

4. Great handling without sacrificing comfort 

The 2019 Acura NSX delivers excellent grip in the corners, thanks to its double-wishbone suspension, magnetically controlled dampers, and variable-ratio electric power steering. It grips just as well as any supercar on the market. However, where the NSX pulls away from the pack is its ride comfort. Sure, it’s not as smooth as a big luxury sedan, but this Acura is more than comfortable enough to handle your daily commute with no complaints.  

5. Comfortable interior 

Though it’s not known for being overly roomy, like all supercars, the Acura NSX delivers plenty of comfort for a pair of occupants. Its seats are not only quite comfortable, but they have plenty of room for people of all sizes. They offer 42.8 inches of legroom, 57.6 inches of shoulder room, and 38.3 inches of headroom.
