Power, precision, and luxury meet

The 2020 Acura NSX is a true supercar with a unique combination of power, precision, and luxury. Whether you're a speed junkie looking to carve up the track on the weekends or a tech lover who basks in the beauty of expert engineering, the NSX has everything you need. It delivers stunning performance from its performance-tuned hybrid powertrain that matches a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 engine with a pair of electric motors for a combined 573 hp. That said, the NSX is about more than just pure speed, as it also delivers stunning handling and all the luxury you’d expect from a vehicle wearing an Acura badge.

5 reasons to buy the 2020 Acura NSX

1. Balanced performance 

The 2020 Acura NSX features a hybrid powertrain that pairs a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 engine with electric motors to deliver a wild 573 hp. This power flows through a nine-speed dual-clutch transmission and out to all four wheels for a 3.1-second zero-to-60-mph sprint time. On top of this exhilarating performance, the NSX also delivers un-supercar-like fuel economy, delivering an EPA-estimated 21 mpg city, 22 mpg highway, and 21 mpg combined.

2. Comfortable ride that’s ready for your commute 

Supercars generally aren’t the most comfortable vehicles on the road, as they are tuned for performance and not much else. The 2020 Acura NSX bucks this trend with its magnetically controlled suspension that delicately combines superior handling with a comfortable ride that’s plenty soft for your daily commute. Add to that great forward visibility, and there’s no reason the Acura NSX can’t be your daily driver.  

3. Roomy cabin for two people 

While the 2020 Acura NSX is no family car — it has just two seats — it has a roomy interior. The two seats offer ample headroom and legroom — 38.3 inches and 42.8 inches, respectively — for people of all sizes. Despite its airy cabin, the NSX doesn’t feel sloppy during spirited driving, as the center tunnel does a great job keeping you in your place when cornering.  

4. The technology you want 

The 2020 Acura NSX is a little behind on its tech due to a dated infotainment system that can be slightly frustrating to use, but it still has all the technology you want from a luxury supercar. It comes standard with a seven-inch infotainment touchscreen, Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto compatibility, Bluetooth® connectivity, HD radio, and a premium audio system.  

5. No shortage of luxury 

The 2020 NSX shows its Acura personality proudly with a wide range of upscale features many supercars lack. This includes leather throughout the cabin, Alcantara-wrapped seating, power seats, and more. Plus, with various modes that allow you to tone down its aggressiveness, the NSX can feel far more upscale and luxurious than the typical supercar.
