Acura has come out with some bold numbers for its second-generation NSX, but before you rush out to your local dealer recall that the hybrid supercar won’t be available in showrooms for some time as production only starts next spring. Nevertheless, fans have a lot to look forward to.

Although the styling already looks a little dated—the first concept was unveiled at the start of 2012—the technology remains as impressive as ever. The list includes a light yet rigid all-aluminum monocoque chassis, a mid-mounted twin-turbocharged V-6, a nine-speed dual-clutch transmission and a trio of electric motors powered by a lithium-ion battery.

While the engine, a 3.5-liter unit, develops 500 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque on its own, the car’s hybrid system, known as Sport Hybrid Super Handling-All-Wheel Drive, boosts this to 573 hp and 476 lb-ft. This enables the NSX to accelerate from 0-60 mph in a claimed 3.0 seconds and reach a top speed of 191 mph

It's pretty badass. I don't think it looks that dated. I work with Acura all the time and recently went on a 10 day photoshoot with three new NSX's. They definitely look mean in person, especially with a couple Factory Installed Features (FIF). The black one we were shooting had a carbon lip spoiler, diffuser and carbon front splitter. It was dope. I feel like the new pictures we captured do more justice than previous ones, but you have to see it person.

Got to sit in it and rev it, but no rides or driving unfortunately. I'm still waiting for the green light to post some pictures from that shoot. Hopefully it will be soon.

The new taillights are a homage to the original taillights.
