2019 Acura NSX Dyno Run & Launch Control At The Factory
59The NSX driver will experience peak performance from the Sport Hybrid SH-AWD power unit's marriage of mechanical and electrical components, working as a system to provide instant and linear acceleration, consistent and powerful braking and precise and predictable handling. Like the first‑generation NSX, this driver-centered supercar makes the most of every driver's capabilities while minimizing driver workload and virtually eliminating the conventional tradeoffs between limit performance and everyday driving pleasure.
The twin-turbocharged V6 engine creates powerful thrust, while the electric Direct Drive Motor and TMU respond immediately to the driver's throttle demands.
Rear axle torque flows through the new 9DCT; 1st gear is for maximum launch acceleration, the close-ratio gears (2nd–8th), making the most of the NSX power band, while 9th gear is optimized for effortless highway cruising.
The front-mounted Twin Motor Unit (TMU) provides through-the-road "active all-wheel drive" with independent electric motors producing on-demand drive force at the front wheels. The TMU "direct yaw control" ability enhances agility, stability and cornering precision—the NSX driver can execute super-precise line tracing during cornering.
The TMU provides regenerative braking force, supporting braking demands and direct yaw control with negative torque while recharging the hybrid battery.
The TMU also provides electric vehicle operation in Quiet mode at speeds less than 50 mph for short distances.
Every time the driver makes a power demand, the TMU and the Direct Drive Motor immediately augment power production from the twin-turbocharged V6 engine, using the instantaneous torque that is an inherent characteristic of electric motors. Total system peak output is 573 horsepower—500 horsepower from the gasoline engine and 73 horsepower from the TMU and Direct Drive Motor.
