Acura TLX
2025 TLX models come with a turbocharged 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that makes 272 horsepower. Power is sent to the front wheels via a 10-speed automatic transmission, which features a torque converter to smooth out any jerkiness in the drivetrain during low-speed operation. The AWD Type S is powered by a 3L turbocharged V6 that makes 355 horsepower, mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Acura worked to improve the sports credibility of the TLX with the additions to the A-Spec package. The package comes with a unique suspension and quick ratio steering setup that is paired with the 4-wheel steering system. This allows the TLX to be both nimble and stable when carving up a twisty road.
The TLX is available in the front-wheel drive Technology Package trim and the all-wheel drive A-Spec Package and Type S trims. All TLX models feature 19-inch wheels, LED headlights, heated side mirrors, rear spoiler, wireless device charging, 5 USB ports, satellite radio, navigation, 17-speaker sound system, 12.3-inch touchscreen, and heated and ventilated front seats.
The Type S adds 20-inch alloy wheels, power folding auto-dimming side mirrors, painted calipers, larger brakes, sport suspension, 12-way power front seats, head-up display, and surround view cameras.
Safety features are plentiful with adaptive cruise control, front and rear parking sensors, active lane departure, blind spot warning, forward collision mitigation, rear collision warning, front pedestrian detection, driver attention alert, and traffic sign information system.
