The 2020 Acura NSX, also known as the Honda NSX in most places outside North America, is an exceedingly well-engineered sports car that offers accurate steering, impeccable handling and a settled around-town ride. Much of this has to do with the thoughtful engineering behind the suspension and chassis components we'll see in this video. This second-generation NSX first reappeared after a long absence as a 2017 model. The suspension tuning was further refined for the 2019 model year after a different Continental tire with different structural characteristics was specified—SportContact 6 instead of SportContact 5. This second-generation NSX is a midengine supercar powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 and three electric motors—a rear-mounted one between its engine and 9-speed dual-clutch transmission and one for each front wheel. Yes, this not only means the NSX has all-wheel drive, it's also a performance hybrid.

Why am I doing this? I love this stuff. I'm a former suspension development engineer that got into auto journalism, and for several years I created a popular photo feature called a Suspension Walkaround for Inside Line, a now-defunct offshoot of Edmunds.com (no relation). Today I have resumed writing these features under the name Suspension Deep Dive for Autoblog. Between the two, I have written almost 100 of them. Throughout, numerous fans have asked me to make video versions.

I never seemed to have the time, the equipment, or the confidence to get in front of the camera, but I got over that by hosting at least 80 professionally-produced videos over the last three years on the Edmunds You Tube channel. If you like it, please tell your friends, click subscribe, share links, give it a like and check out the other videos on my channel, which is simply called Dan Edmunds. And I take requests. I can't promise that I can get my hands on any car or truck, but the odds are good. And the more views I get, the more horsepower I'll have when requesting cars to examine.
