The first edition of the modern-classic NSX-R series was introduced in 1995 by Honda as the 'lightweight' and improved version of NSX. This NSX-R was made for the racetrack rather than the busy roads, and with features as amazing, the car was a fit for the speedway. While the NSX had excluded basic features like air conditioning, spare tire, contraction control, stereo, and sound deadening off the list, the company incorporated them innovatively in its next design.

NSX-R was designed as compensation for the NSX and thus had an enhanced interior with bright red Recaro seats and a new Momo steering wheel.
