In these pictures we can see something new, for sure. It looks to be a concept or design study that shares a lot of lines with a patent image of the long-rumored “baby” NSX. Many people speaks about a successor to the long-dead S2000. This concept was spotted in California, where American Honda is reported to be a major advocate of the project and the NSX was largely developed in Ohio.

If ZSX ever comes to fruition, it would likely be built in North America, and use a number of the NSX’s components. It could be powered by a four-cylinder hybrid setup, however, possibly using the Civic Type-R’s naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four that, not surprisingly, also comes from Ohio.
