What Batman would drive
Friday, December, 19,
2014
I think I have found the car that Batman would drive. It
is the twin turbo, full-hybrid all-new Honda NSX, or what will probably be sold
as Acura NSX here. It has enough gadgets and possibly enough thrust and
acceleration. If you think about it, you can just hear him saying it: “Alfred, fetch
me the NSX. I’ll need the power and fuel economy it has.”
Talk about fuel economy: it appears to offer up to 30
miles per gallon, possibly even more. A lot of the car’s vitals are quiet and
mum at the moment, as Honda has only said they will build it, and a few notes
about its engine.
The last NSX was sold here and in other markets and
basically launched the Acura brand in America. Although it never caught on with
developing a sports car reputation, as bigger pedigrees such as Ferrari still
holds to that. The NSX was sold here from 1990 until the mid-2000s, and did as
much with a small V-6 and a manual that Dodge Vipers and the like couldn’t match
of the 1990s.
Will the hybrid, and most likely very expensive, all-new
NSX make it here, or fall flat on its face in the tough market of
record-setting Porsches and champs like new McLaren car? Only time will tell,
and who knows? Maybe the new Batman movie set for 2016 will feature Bruce Wayne
in a sleek new Acura NSX.
