New Honda NSX: Time to raid the piggy-bank as the order book opens in the UK

April 18, 2013 By Cars UK

Honda UK has announced that the order book for the new 2015 Honda NSX is now open with a £5,000 deposit securing the early delivery of the new NSX.

It may have taken Honda forever to get round to building a new NSX, but they’ve received so much interest in the new Supercar that Honda UK has decided to open up orders – two years before the new NSX arrives in 2015.

The new NSX got its first outing at the Detroit Auto Show in 2012 and is being developed by Honda in the US with the aim of producing a ‘green’ supercar with advanced environmental performance without sacrificing on-road performance. The 2015 NSX will not only be designed in the US, but built there too

The new NSX gets a mid-mounted direct-injection V6 which drives power through Honda’s Sport hybrid SH-AWD system with 2 electric motors that can apply positive or negative torque to the front wheels during cornering which, say Honda, will deliver handling unmatched by other all-wheel-drive systems.

Phil Crossman, Honda’s UK MD, said:

We are really pleased with the interest we’ve already seen for the new NSX. We are still two years away from the launch of the car and yet we’ve received over 20 deposits and that’s before we’ve even announced prices or seen the final production car. With this process in place we are confident demand will remain strong and early hand raisers can now visit any Honda dealership in the UK and place a deposit.

So, if you fancy a ‘Green’ supercar, and you can fish down the back of your sofa to come up with the required £5k deposit, you can now pop along to your local UK Honda dealers and get to the front of the queue.
