Acura NSX Type S Ever dreamed of having a car with four driving modes? If you just said yes, Acura has answered your dream. An exhilarating supercar unlike any other, the NSX Type S puts you in control with four drive modes to heighten the experience. The new NSX represents the peak of dynamic driving deserving of the Type S badge. It was hand-built by skilled technicians at the Performance Manufacturing Centre (PMC) with a restricted production of 350 units globally. The NSX Type S pushes the limits of what is possible with more power and more sound for a more exhilarating drive, while continuing to honour its lineage with rigorous engineering and beautiful craftsmanship. With four drive modes, the car gives you more control and enhances your ride. There is a drive mode for any scenario, from blending in with increased Quiet mode range to tearing around a circuit with forceful downshift logic from the 9-speed DCT. The NSX Type S draws attention everywhere it goes because to its revised front and back fascia, which includes a front lip made of carbon fibre, side skirts, a spoiler, and a rear diffuser with GT3 Evo design cues. Acura NSX Type S The Lotus Evija Fittipaldi The world’s most powerful production car – the stunning Lotus Evija hypercar – now delivers even more exclusivity and desirability. Inspired by the past to enhance the future, Lotus has unveiled the Evija Fittipaldi, as a tribute to one of the greatest car-anddriver pairings that Formula 1 has ever seen — Emerson Fittipaldi, the young Brazilian racer and the now-iconic Lotus Type 72. The technical specification and performance figures of the Lotus Evija Fittipaldi are truly astonishing; more than 2,000 PS makes it the most powerful series production car in the world, creating more than 1,700Nm of torque. The car can reach a speed of 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in under three seconds, and 0-186 mph (0-300 km/h) takes nine seconds from a standing start. The top speed of the car is 217 mph (350 km/h). Showcasing the world-famous black and gold colour scheme – also 50 years old in 2022 – the hand-painted exterior and numerous other unique design features have been created to commemorate this amazing collaboration. They include a hand-tinted plan view of the Type 72 etched into the exposed carbon fibre roof, and Fittipaldi’s signature hand-stitched into the dashboard. And perhaps the most emotive detail of all is the rotary dial on the floating central instrument panel. It has been hand-crafted from recycled original Type 72 aluminium, ensuring a genuine piece of the iconic F1 racer is part of each Evija Fittipaldi. Just eight examples of the all-electric two-seater are being hand-built at Hethel in Norfolk, UK – the global HQ of Lotus sports car design and manufacturing – and all are sold. Customer deliveries are said to begin early next year. The Lotus Evija Fittipaldi 60|L U X E B O O K|O C T O B E R 2 0 2 2 O C T O B E R 2 0 2 2 |L U X E B O O K| 61
