The Top one is called the Acura DN-X concept.
Gas/Electric hybrid, with over 400HP. The electric motor also helps with the handling/suspension from what I've read.
It's MR also

Re: *caugh* OT, but what the hell is this (austrian type-R)
I saw the DN-X Concept at the Sydney Motorshow last year. I don't think it was ever intended to be produced.
I think it's Honda's way of showing off to the world that it has the technology to build the first hybrid supercar. It's their way of saying what sort of technology their cars could have.
So if there was ever a time, that regulations become so tight. Honda can come up with the goods!
Honestly though, i think i'd pick the Bugatti Veyron over the DN-X still. W16 + Quad Turbos from factory!

Re: *caugh* OT, but what the hell is this (MyYellowHonda)
The Dualnote comes equipped with the Honda IMA System, a further refinement of our unique Civic Hybrid system. This powerplant combines a 3.5-litre V6 i-VTEC engine with electric motor/generator assist. An additional front-drive motor is added, for a drive package that puts out a walloping 400 horsepower, while at the same time achieving unprecedented fuel economy.
Dualnote's mid-engine, rear-drive, hybrid 4-wheel drive powerplant also comes equipped with ATTS for smoother, more stable cornering and VSA to suppress side slip. These systems are synchronised to work together, providing 4-wheel independent control that employs each tyre to maximum effect, for a car that delivers the ultimate in starting, stopping, and handling performance.
The instrument panel is designed to deliver only the necessary information when it is needed, for the maximum comfort and driving pleasure. It is divided into three optimally-positioned display units, built around interactive voice recognition technology. The display also notifies the driver of incoming telephone and e-mail messages.
The centre display, located at the bottom of the windshield to minimise driver distraction, incorporates an arrow navigation display to indicate branches in the road ahead, and night vision, which uses an infrared camera to detect pedestrians. The image is then processed and displayed to the driver.
Dualnote features:
- Extensive cabin length owing to an advanced monocoque form and long wheelbase
-Variable steering assist enables neutral and ideal handling under a variety of road and driving conditions
-Integrated sensor headlights with built-in sensors for immediate and accurate recognition of objects in the drive path
Integrated front/rear sensing system employing CCD cameras for more accurate object recognition
-Integrated front upper spoiler controls the aerodynamics of the entire vehicle body and helps achieve a comfortable ride quality
Touch sensor type door-opener switch for tight security
