No technical specifications have been revealed, but we do see it sitting on 21-inch wheels with Brembo four-piston brake calipers at each corner. However, the company did mention that future Type S models will most likely be powered by a new turbocharged V6 running through a torque-vectoring Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system.
“We’ve been dreaming about a new performance-focused Acura concept car since the Precision Concept debuted. The Type S Concept speaks unambiguously to performance and to the essence of Acura design,” said Dave Marek, Acura’s Executive Creative Director.
