Base TLX models come with a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine making 206 hp. Power is sent to the front wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, which features a torque converter to smooth out any jerkiness in the drivetrain during low speed operation. The optional engine is a 3.5L V6 making 290 hp. Power is sent to either the front, or with Acura's SH-AWD system, all-four wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission. ...more The TLX has a tricky niche to fill, being both a luxury car and a sports sedan at the same time. Acura have addressed this with the addition of a revised 4-wheel steering system, allowing the TLX to be both nimble and stable when carving up a twisty road. Acura lists seven different trim levels for the TLX. A choice of 4-cylinder or V6 engines and front-wheel or SH-AWD all-wheel drive, each of which can each be ordered with a Technology Package or Advanced Package. Basic levels of equipment are excellent. The base TLX comes equipped with LED headlights, Bluetooth connectivity, SiriusXM satellite radio, a rearview camera, keyless access, a multi-function display, Siri eyes free functionality and USB and iPod connectivity. Buyers who opt for the Technology Package get a navigation system with real-time traffic updates, a premium audio system with HD radio, a colored display screen, a perforated leather trimmed interior, rain sensing wipers, lane assist and lane departure warning systems as well as blind spot and forward collision warning systems. The V6-powered TLX comes in both front and all-wheel drive configurations, though all-wheel drive versions always come equipped with either the Technology or the Advanced Package. The Advanced Package includes everything in the Technology Package but adds even more safety and technology. Items in the Advanced Package include an adaptive cruise control system, a forward collision mitigation system and a lane departure mitigation system, front and rear parking sensors, auto dimming rearview mirrors, LED fog and puddle lights and a remote engine start system.
Safety systems across the TLX line include anti-lock brakes, traction control and stability control. Front, side, side curtain and driver's knee airbags are all standard.
Compact in overall dimensions, the Acura TLX ranks closer to a midsize sedan in terms of passenger space. Despite falling short of true luxury status, it competes against several premium German-brand sedans of comparable size, including the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, as well as the latter's smaller CLA.
At 106.5 cubic feet, total passenger space doesn't quite match the 3 Series or C-Class, making the TLX a better choice for four occupants than five.
Two engines are available. In base trim, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder that produces 206 horsepower gives the TLX a nimble, nicely balanced character. Performance doesn't get much of a boost with the more expensive 3.5-liter V6, which develops 290 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque. Furthermore, while the 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission in the four-cylinder model behaves admirably, the V6 sedan switches to a less impressive 9-speed unit.
Front-wheel drive is standard, but the V6 model also is available with Acura's Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD).
Not everyone has high praise for the appearance of the TLX. Many consider it to be average, at best. Rather than fall in line with the latest design directions emanating from Honda's luxury division, the TLX sticks with styling themes that are closer to the past.
Crash-testing by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration brought a five-star overall rating. In one of the tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, for small-overlap frontal impact, the TLX ranked only Marginal. Other IIHS tests yielded Good scores (the highest rating). When fitted with optional safety features, the TLX was rated Superior for frontal-crash prevention.
Even the base model is impressively equipped. LED daytime running lights and a rearview camera are standard. Every TLX has a moonroof, power seats, keyless start, and Bluetooth connectivity. Only a single trim level is offered, but Technology and Advance packages add luxury amenities, as well as a group of active-safety features. Full Review
The Acura TLX was launched as a 2015 model, a near-luxury sedan that slots between the ILX and RLX. The TLX is high on technology and moderate on starting price.

Quick-Take Review
August 2016 By ALEXANDER STOKLOSA Photos By MICHAEL SIMARI
Shop Local Cars View 61 PhotosOverview: Acura’s TLX was introduced for the 2015 model year as a single, ostensibly right-size replacement for both the smaller TSX and the slightly larger TL sedans, with the mission to take on highbrow sport/luxury four-doors such as the Audi A4, BMW 3-series, Jaguar XE, and Mercedes-Benz C-class. With relatively affordable pricing along with plenty of standard and available features, the TLX tries to bridge the gap between those cars and mainstream mid-size four-doors. Think of it as the Japanese answer to the Buick Regal, and you’d not be far off the mark.
BUILD YOUR OWN | RANK IN SEGMENT
What’s New: Nothing changes for 2017, but the price of most trims of the TLX have gone up slightly. (The prices for the 3.5-liter V-6s with the Advance package remain the same.) As before, the powertrain lineup is simple enough, with two engine options—a 206-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a 3.5-liter V-6, each with its own distinct automatic transmission—and the availability of Acura’s torque-vectoring Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system on the V-6. The four-cylinder TLX is available in base “Standard” or uplevel “Technology package” guises, while the front-drive V-6 offers an additional choice of an even richer “Advance package” option (each package essentially represents a trim level). The all-wheel-drive TLX V-6 is available only in Technology and Advance forms.
What We Like: The Acura is a fairly roomy small sedan and can be equipped with the latest active-safety features, such as adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and more, for thousands of dollars less than its German competitors. The interior is solidly built using nice materials, and the body feels stiff and does an appropriately good job of keeping road and wind noise at bay.
For this review, we drove both a four-cylinder TLX with the Technology package and an all-wheel-drive V-6 model with the Advance package. Thanks to its lower price, the four-cylinder TLX continues to make its case as the most compelling choice, provided you don’t desire all-wheel drive. The four-cylinder engine is refined, in the typical Honda way, and places less weight on the TLX’s nose, making the car feel lighter on its feet and more fun. The front-drive TLX with the V-6 feels front-heavy and is fairly dull to drive—and also suffers some torque steer—while the all-wheel-drive V-6 is quick, and its torque vectoring helps manage the extra mass and scoot the car around corners. The SH-AWD system is effective at quelling understeer, but the driver must have the wit to stomp on the gas midcorner, at which point the computers take care of the rest, figuring out which wheels get torque. Call it capable if not outright fun. The four-cylinder model and the front-drive V-6 come with a nifty rear-steering feature called P-AWS that turns the rear wheels in the same direction as the fronts at higher speeds to enhance stability when, say, changing lanes on the highway, or in the opposite direction of the fronts at parking-lot speeds for greater maneuverability. It also sharpens turn-in response.
The four-cylinder TLX’s clever eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission incorporates a torque converter between it and the engine, as in a conventional planetary-gear automatic, to give the Acura smooth takeoff performance from a stop. It works, as none of the clutch chatter found in competitors’ dual-clutch gearboxes is present here, and the torque-converter clutch locks up almost instantly; shifts are as quick and well executed as in the best dual-clutches out there. The aggressiveness of the shift strategy can be dialed up or down via the TLX’s IDS drive-mode selector (or the driver can take over with the shift paddles), and the transmission seems both smoother and quicker-witted in the sportier settings. The same IDS button is found in the V-6 model, where it governs the behavior of the conventional nine-speed automatic transmission, which isn’t as crisp as the dual-clutch.
What We Don’t Like: Our key quibble with the TLX centers around the rather pointless dual dashboard displays, which can be configured to show identical information but with differing graphics and pixel counts. The bottom display is a touchscreen unit, while the top screen is controlled by a rotary knob and hard buttons located below the lower touchscreen. It isn’t terribly responsive or intuitive—thank goodness there are buttons on the steering wheel—and the only major function unique to the upper screen is navigation (on models so equipped). Plus, it’s a generation behind the latest Honda infotainment, which means it lacks Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality, but at least the TLX has a real volume knob instead of the finicky touch control common to those newer Honda setups.
Despite Acura’s history of building sporty, fun-to-drive cars—including the TSX that the TLX replaced and the NSX supercar—the TLX is let down by its low-grip tires and conservative suspension tuning that prioritizes comfort over responsiveness. Of greater consequence, the TLX is hobbled by its ho-hum appearance and its in-between position in the marketplace. The Acura fails to distinguish itself not only among its primary competition, but also relative to more affordable mainstream mid-size sedans including the Honda Accord to which it’s closely related. The TLX feels somewhat more refined and quieter, but even with its fancy dual-clutch gearbox, four-wheel steering, and torque-vectoring all-wheel drive, it fails to move the needle relative to mainstream family sedans and luxury players alike.
Verdict: Automotive wallpaper from the same company that sells the NSX supercar.
