1999.04 : Honda announced the release of Honda S2000 two-seater open sports car in Japan on April 15. AP1 Honda S2000 is powered by the F20C 2.0-liter NA(normally aspirated) 4-cylinder DOHC VTEC engine that makes 250 horsepower at 8300rpm (125PS per liter) and 22.2kg-m of torque. Honda has further refined its proprietary VTEC technology and devised technologies to reduce friction and improve breathing efficiency to produce a high-revving, high-output engine.

Honda S2000 adopts a 6-speed close-ratio manual transmission that enables the driver to exploit the S2000's engine to the full. The ultra-light flywheel and highly rigid drive shaft further contribute to swift throttle response.

To develop a new-generation open sports car, the S2000 adopts "High X-Bone Frame" open-body structure. In this new frame construction, the raised center tunnel features a strong boxed-type structure that connects to the front and rear side members in a single horizontal plane.

Honda developed a new in-wheel type double wishbone suspension specially for the S2000. And the S2000 is fitted with 16-inch ventilated front disc brakes, 15-inch rear disc brakes, floating piston-type single-tube gas-filled shock absorbers, ABS and LSD.
