本田NSXTypeR将于2020年发布，据日本网站报道，该车功率将达到650马力，在日本售价3500万日元（约合人民币202.3万元）。美国讴歌副总裁兼总经理JonIkeda在今年北美车展期间在被问及这款车时表示，“一切皆有可能”。除了硬顶版，未来还将有敞篷版，甚至有纯电动版。问题是，本田（还有讴歌）能从NSX多款衍生车型中获益吗？特别是从财务的角度考虑。最近有两个现象表明这款车将在未来两年内发布。首先，去年8月，有人在纽伯格林赛道拍到了正在测试的原型车，这些车都配备了特殊的传感器。另外，该车气坝设计专利图已经在去年底由本田提交美国专利及商标局。

 

Honda NSX Type R Rumors Intensify, Could Debut in 2019 With 650 PS

Never confirmed by the automaker or the Acura brand, the NSX Type R could be in the pipeline for the 2020 model year. Japanese publication Spyder7.com quotes 650 horsepower (641 brake horsepower), and an estimated price tag of 35 million yen.

 

Vice-president and general manager of Acura in the United States, Jon Ikeda, made an interesting comment on the amped-up NSX during the 2018 Detroit Motor Show. When quizzed by the motoring media about the Type R, Ikeda replied with a cryptic “anything can happen.”

 

The lighter, more powerful variant is rumored to be joined by the NSX Roadster later this year according to Auto Bild, and further down the line, Autocar suggests that an EV could happen. The question is, does Honda (and Acura) see benefit in spinning the NSX off into so many variants, especially from a financial standpoint?

 

Only time will tell, but there are two clues about what’s waiting for the NSX in the coming years. For starters, a handful of prototypes were spotted at the Nurburgring undergoing development in August 2017, both cars sporting some kind of special sensors.

 

Then there’s a design patent for an air dam, which Honda filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in late 2017.
