The All New 2021 Acura TLX
Acura has completely redesigned the new TLX to provide Precision Crafted Performance to premium sport sedan enthusiasts. It may be the best performing, best handling, and most well-appointed Acura sedan ever.
**Brand New Design**
The new TLX platform is unique to Acura and showcases an updated turbocharged powertrain and a technology-rich cabin. This fresh design competes with the Audi A4 or A6 and the BMW 3 or 5-series and brings excitement back to the Acura brand.
**Exterior**
The exterior design of the TLX impresses with its sharp look, especially in Apex Blue Pearl. The long hood flows into the diamond pentagon grille, giving the car a classic yet exotic sports sedan appearance.
**Drivetrain**
The TLX offers exciting performance with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine that produces 272 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque. The new 10-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters delivers better throttle response and good gas mileage. For more power, the TLX Type S will have a twin-turbo V6 with an estimated 355 horsepower. The suspension provides a quiet and impressive ride, especially with the adaptive damping suspension in the Advance trim.
**Interior**
The TLX boasts high-grade materials like leather, real wood trim, and metal accents in its refined cabin. The Ambient lighting and the impressive ELS Studio 3D sound system with 17 speakers create a luxurious and immersive experience inside the car.
**True Touchpad Interface**
The True Touchpad Interface features Absolute Positioning, allowing for intuitive interaction without distracting from the road. The customization options make it easy to personalize the interface, and the Natural Language Voice recognition system is highly effective.
**Safety**
The 2021 Acura TLX has earned the highest safety rating from the IIHS, thanks to features like the Collision Mitigation Braking System™ and Acura’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ body structure. The AcuraWatch™ suite of safety technologies come standard on all Acura sedans and SUVs.
**Conclusion**
The All New 2021 Acura TLX lives up to its hype with its competitive performance and luxurious features. With a starting price of $37,500, it offers great value and appeal to a wide range of drivers. Visit the [Acura TLX website](https://www.acura.com/tlx) for more information.
