Hand Assembled Engine. Hub of Craftsmanship. Powertrain System.
Perfect parts are staged in one-by-one in sequence. It takes five hours to build a single engine by hand, which is assembled by one of six master builders. Precision is part of its assembly process. Human touch is part of its DNA. Our Performance Manufacturing Center is where the next-generation NSX comes to life. Constructed entirely in-house, the pride that goes in to each detail is as resounding as it is reassuring. The all-new powertrain is developed to put the driver first. Even with class-leading specs like 75-degree DOHC V-6, twin-turbo charging, 3 motors and 9-speed DCT, the NSX is most remarkable for it's human connection.
