A Super Sports Car Returns

The HONDA NSX, a leading Japanese sports car, headlines this episode. It debuted in 1990 as a flagship of the brand to go alongside world supercars like FERRARI and PORSCHE, but went out of production in 2005. 11 years later, it returns with a fully revamped model. The new NSX HYBRID uses carbon fiber to achieve high fuel economy performance through weight reduction. It adopts an original four-wheel drive system that gives enhanced maneuverability. HONDA presents the long-awaited new NSX, but how does it stack up against the supercars of the world? SAMURAI TEAM will check this out. Also, we'll have a report about a venture company's development of electric ultra-compact mobility. Navigators: Ukyo Katayama (Racing Driver) Peter Lyon (Chairman of the World Car Awards, Motor Journalist)
