Acura first announced plans to kill off its halo sports car, the NSX, in 2021. At the time, the company’s chief hinted that this might not, in fact, be the end for the famed sports car, adding that we could one day see an electric NSX out on the highway. Now, it seems like parent company Honda is ready to unveil the battery-powered beast, but sadly it won’t look like the car you see here.

The new NSX could be unveiled at the Japan Mobility Show next month, where Honda has a whole fleet of cars, planes, and robots to showcase. Tucked at the end of a release outlining everything that will be on display at the Honda stand at the show, the Japanese automaker said that it would unveil a “Specialty Sports Concept.”

However, that’s all Honda’s shared about the upcoming release. No specs, no details, no name, and not even a vague teaser image. All that means is that the new NSX will almost definitely not look like the cutesy hatch you see up top. That, instead, is the Sustaina-C Concept that Honda will also showcase at the Japan Mobility Show next month.
