    Hybrid Battery question - NSX sitting for over a year

    Today has 2nd drive after its delivery. Now has more understanding of this car. The Sport mode is not that fun as the Sport+ mode. The car is more powerful than 2014 R8 V10. Somehow one must really steps on the gas pedal otherwise the car feel heavy and does not want to move.
