AUTOart Honda NSX Type S (NC1) 2022 - Long Beach Blue Pearl 1:18 model car

AUTOart 1:18 diecast composite model of the 2022 Honda NSX Type S (NC1) in Long Beach Blue Pearl. The Type S was a high performance, limited production edition of the Honda NXS, marking the car's final year of production. Only 350 examples were built, with 300 of those reserved for the United States market. Enhancements to the internal combustion engine included new turbochargers from the NSX GT3 race car that increased peak boost pressure by 5.6%, while new fuel injectors increased the flow rate by 25%. To cope with the additional heat that these performance increases produced, new intercoolers were also fitted, dissipating 15% more heat than previously. These upgrades combined saw the internal combustion engine generate 522 bhp. On top of this, the car's battery capacity and battery output were also increased, by 20% and 10% respectively. This saw the car's overall output increase to an impressive 602 bhp. The Type S also saw several revisions to its exterior. Chief of these were a new nose design and a large carbon fibre rear diffuser, these two measures both improving downforce and increasing cooling. Semi-slick Pirelli P Zero tyres were also tailor-made for the vehicle. The performance figures for the Type S read as a 0 to 60 mph time of under three seconds and a top speed of 191 mph, the latter being electronically limited.
