Acura NSX steps closer to reality in Detroit (pictures)

Surprising for a high-performance sports car, the NSX is coming out as a hybrid. It will use a direct-injection V-6 engine coupled to an electric motor to drive the rear wheels, and two electric motors driving the front wheels. That engine is likely to be the same 3.5-liter V-6 as that used on the RLX sedan, although possibly with higher output.
