An Iconic Legacy: The First-Gen Honda NSX

The first-generation Honda NSX (NA1), launched in 1990, remains a masterpiece in automotive history. As Honda’s flagship sports car, the NSX embodied the brand’s most advanced technology and engineering, earning its place as one of Japan’s national treasures among supercars.

Even after its production ended in 2005, and the second-generation NC1 NSX debuted in 2016, the legacy of the NA1 remains untouchable. The Type R evolution further elevated its status, cementing its timeless appeal and legendary performance. 💎

The Birth of the HSV-010

In 2005, Honda initiated the development of a successor to the first-gen NSX. However, due to the global financial crisis, the project was terminated in December 2008, before the car could reach production.

The HSV—standing for Honda Sports Velocity—never became a production vehicle. Instead, it debuted as a SUPER GT race car from 2010 to 2013, replacing the NSX GT on the track.

A Unique Exception in Racing

The HSV-010 stood out in the world of motorsport as a car approved to race in the SUPER GT despite not being based on a production vehicle—an unprecedented exception to regulations. This rare allowance underscored the car’s special place in Honda’s lineup.

Specifications and Vision

Honda initially envisioned the HSV-010 as the next-generation NSX, powered by a 90-degree V10 engine delivering 551hp and incorporating technologies like SH-AWD and VCM (Variable Cylinder Management) for efficiency and performance.

While the project was ultimately canceled, the HSV-010 evolved into a SUPER GT race car equipped with a 3.4L V8 engine producing 500hp, adhering to racing regulations. With its lightweight 1,100kg design and razor-sharp engineering, the HSV-010 became an ultimate cornering machine, surpassing the NSX GT.

Legacy of the HSV-010 GT

Although it never became a production car, the HSV-010 left an indelible mark in motorsport. Approved under GT500 regulations by the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF), it achieved success on the SUPER GT circuit, solidifying its reputation as a standout performer.

Let’s conclude with a family photo of all the HSV-010 GT race cars that graced the SUPER GT series—a true testament to Honda’s relentless innovation and pursuit of excellence! 📸✨
