The Honda S2000 is a
roadster that was manufactured by the
Japanese automaker
Honda Motor Company. It was launched in April 1999 and was created to celebrate the company's 50th anniversary. The car was first shown as a concept at the
Tokyo Motor Show in 1995, following which it was launched in world markets in 1999. The
S2000 is named for its engine displacement of 2 L, carrying on in the tradition of the
S500, S600, and
S800 roadsters of the 1960s. Several revisions were made throughout the car's lifetime, including changes to the engine, gearbox, suspension and interior and exterior. Officially two variants exist: the initial launch model was given the chassis code
AP1, while the
AP2 designation was given to vehicles produced from mid-2003 onwards. Though cosmetically similar, the
AP2 incorporated significant changes to the drivetrain and suspension. Production of the
S2000 ceased in June 2009.
O Honda S2000 é um
roadster produzido pela
Honda Motor Company desde Abril de 1999. Foi criado para comemorar o 50º aniversário da empresa e dá continuidade à tradição dos
roadster ligeiros modelo "S", como o
Honda S600 e o
Honda S800. Tal como os anteriores modelos S, o
nome S2000 deriva da cilindrada do motor, que são aproximadamente 2000 cc. Ainda que tenha sido posteriormente lançado um modelo com motorização de 2200 cc
(F22C1) em 2004, foi mantido o nome.
Desde o seu lançamento em 1999 até 2003, os
S2000s foram produzidos na fábrica
Honda de Tochigi. A partir dessa data, foram sendo fabricados na fábrica de
Suzuka até 2009.
