are you sure the engine sits in the back of the new one. the back looks small, I know it is only a 2 seater.

Primary power for the rear wheels will come from a mid-mounted, direct-injected V-6. That engine will be bolted to a dual-clutch, paddle-shifted automatic that incorporates an electric motor, similar to Honda’s other hybrid offerings. But that setup will be augmented by two electric motors up front to create a four-wheel-drive arrangement the company is calling, enticingly, Sport Hybrid Super Handling All-Wheel Drive
