“In celebration of the final year of NSX production, just 350 of these exclusive supercars will be available worldwide, with only 300 offered in the United States, marking the first time an NSX Type S has been sold outside of Japan,” the automaker added.
Acura teased some images of the 2022 model, which will be fully unveiled at Monterey Car Week on Aug. 12.
The farwell edition of the hybrid supercar will have more power, quicker acceleration and sharper handling, Acura said. Pricing was not announced. The 2021 model was priced at just over $160,000 with shipping.
The second-generation NSX, launched in 2016, generally failed to live up to the reputation of its predecessor, which was discontinued after the 2005 model year. In the first half of 2021, Acura only sold 60 units of the NSX compared to rivals such as the Porsche 911, with over 5,000 units sold in the first half.
Acura said it has not given up on sports cars.
“Acura is a performance brand, a company of enthusiasts, and we will continue moving forward, actively investigating what the next generation of sports cars should be in an electrified era.” said Jon Ikeda, vice president and Acura brand officer.
