As a refresher, the Type S gets a number of changes, including more power and revised aerodynamics. The 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 gets new injectors and turbochargers from the NSX GT3 Evo race car, boosting total output for the complete hybrid powertrain to 600 hp and 492 lb-ft of torque. That's 27 hp and 16 lb-ft more than the standard car. In the US, the NSX Type S starts at $169,500, while equipping the Lightweight Package takes the price tag to $182,500. The price bump includes getting more power from the twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 and the three electric motors. The powertrain now produces 600 horsepower (447 kilowatts) and 492 pound-feet (667 Newton-meters) of torque, a small bump compared with the regular NSX's 573 hp (427 kW) and 476 lb-ft (645 Nm). Three hundred of the 350 are coming to the US. Those who opt for the Lightweight Package get carbon-ceramic brakes, a carbon-fiber engine clover, and carbon interior trim, which helps reduce the car's curb weight by 57.8 pounds 26.2 kilograms). The NSX Type S sports a larger front grille opening and carbon-fiber exterior bits. Applications for purchase in Japan open Thursday, September 2, with the automaker saying deliveries are scheduled to begin in July 2022.
