When we talk about a car, we rarely think about how it may affect us emotionally.
Not in this case.
Dramatic styling, advanced technology, and an exhilarating driving experience embodies Acura’s Precision Crafted Performance roots.
Meet the next generation TLX A-SPEC.
Let's start by looking at some of the highlights;
A-Spec Exclusive exterior styling with dark accents
4th generation SH-AWD
10-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters
Integrated dynamic system with driving modes including individual mode
19” shark grey alloy wheels
A-Spec interior styling with red ambient lighting
Flat-bottom steering wheel and metal sport pedals
Heated and ventilated suede and leather trimmed front seats
And Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The distinct exterior styling of the TLX boasts an exotic muscular look with a low wide stance and long wheelbase that just screams performance.
The TLX A-Spec features sharply sculpted lines, an aggressive front facia with Acura's signature diamond pentagon grille.
See and be seen with these sleek, darkened Jewel eye LED headlights with chicane inspired shapes that give a nod to Acura's rich racing heritage.
Adding to its muscular presence is this elongated sculpted hood and wide rear fenders designed for aerodynamics
and to contain the much wider performance tires that grip the road and improve handling.
The lightweight 19” shark grey alloy wheels take this sport sedan’s aggressive look to a whole new level.
Under the hood is a performance tuned 2-litre, 4 cylinder Turbo engine, making over 270 hp, and an impressive 280 pound feet of road gripping torque,
that is further intensified by a 10-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
The TLX A-SPEC features Acura's 4th generation Super Handling All-Wheel Drive
that connects the driver to the road by sending power to the wheels that need it the most.
The A-Spec’s Integrated dynamic system with driving modes, like Comfort, Normal, Sport,
combined with sport-tuned steering and double wishbone suspension in the front result in superb handling that's both sure-footed and exhilarating.
You can further tune your driving experience with the dynamic “individual mode” allowing your TLX to perform exactly the way you like it.
With performance like this, it's important to also have necessary stopping power,
and Acura knocked it out of the park with an advanced Electro-servo braking system borrowed directly from Acura’s NSX supercar.
Even though styling and performance steal the show, safety has definitely not been overlooked.
Your TLX comes with “AcuraWatch”, an array of safety features and driver assistive technologies that include:
Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
Forward Collision Warning with Collision Mitigation Braking System
Lane Departure Warning, with steering wheel haptic feedback
Blind Spot Monitor
Lane Keeping Assist
Rear Cross Traffic Monitor
Road Departure Mitigation System
and Driver and Front passenger airbag technology to better manage lateral collision forces.
Now, let's talk a bit about this smart key fob.
In addition to the remote engine start, your key fob actually remembers your seat settings,
mirror adjustments, and allows you to pre-heat and pre-cool your TLX remotely.
This smart key system even gives you vehicle feedback when you use the remote start.
The muscular design continues to the rear, where the menacing stance is punctuated by this gloss black rear spoiler,
shark fin antenna, striking dual exhaust finishers, darkened LED Taillights and a sporty lower diffuser.
By pressing here,
the auto-lift trunk lid effortlessly lifts up and out of the way for a much easier access.
For your storage needs, this large trunk features a generous amount of usable cargo space,
with 60/40 split rear seats that fold down; perfect for carrying longer items.
The alluring design of the TLX continues into the cockpit,
with a seamless blend of luxury and performance, made with genuine materials and sporty accents.
There is a 12-way power adjustable driver's and front passenger's seat, including 4-way power lumbar support.
The higher centre console enhances the dual cockpit design.
And the TLX is precisely driver focused with all controls easily within reach.
The exclusive flat bottom A-Spec steering wheel is heated and with sport pedals, paddle shifters and selectable driving modes,
the TLX gives you a comfortable and exhilarating driving experience.
The cabin is roomy with plenty of head and leg room,
and letting in lots of natural light, is this large power moonroof with tilt feature.
The TLX A-Spec is packed with lots of intuitive technology starting with this 10.2” colour centre display
with Acura’s True Touchpad Interface with hand rest that makes navigating menus and selecting features a breeze.
The steering wheel mounted controls and voice recognition feature allows you to keep your eyes safely on the road.
To further set the mood, you can immerse yourself in the quality sound of this ELS 3D studio sound system
