JAS Motorsport reinvents the legendary Honda NSX with Tensei, a modern restomod that combines Italian design and supercar performance.
JAS Motorsport has built a rich expertise in motorsport as the official Honda preparer. The company takes a new step with the creation of its first road supercar, the Tensei. Meaning “rebirth” in Japanese, this name reflects JAS’s ambition: to capture the iconic DNA of the first generation Honda NSX while propelling it into the contemporary supercar universe.
Revealed in preview a few days ago to a select circle of clients at the Fuji Raceway, the Tensei stands out as a faithful tribute to the original NSX. The car retains its iconic lines, from the pop-up headlights to the vast glazing, while adding modern touches: widened fenders, imposing air intakes, and a revamped rear with full-width LED lights very much of their time.
Pininfarina at the helm
The design and interior have been entrusted to Pininfarina, which has created a carbon fiber body and interior that combine lightness, elegance, and aggression. Every detail reflects JAS’s expertise accumulated over more than 30 years in motorsport, with models like the NSX GT3 and the Honda Civic Type R TCR.
Under the hood, the Tensei promises pure sensations: a naturally aspirated V6 engine paired with a six-speed manual gearbox, drawn from JAS’s racing experience. Each unit is based on a donor car, ensuring authenticity and exclusivity for every produced unit.
