2 distinct versions supply divergent faces to the TLX variety: a base design, powered by a 206-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine; and also a higher-tier 3.5-liter V-6 alternative, great for 290 horsepower. Direct shot as well as variable shutoff timing aid both engines make the most of their displacements. The four-cylinder is paired to a new eight-speed, dual-clutch transmission with torque converter that smooths out all of the jerky propensities of a regular dual-clutch, while concurrently providing quick.
The 2015 Acura TLX isn't really a gorgeous automobile, yet it is a quite handsome one, while Acura's company nose has actually softened and matured somewhat from its brash, beak-like wide chrome grille bar of recent years, it still continues to be somewhat off-putting to lots of onlookers. A strong, large front end is crowned by the huge shield-shaped grille, which itself is flanked by a pair of narrow, vast multi-element headlights.
Inside, the TLX is very comely, as long as you're resting in the driver's seat. The appealing and easy-to-read tool cluster as well as dual-screen facility pile appearance high-tech and also appropriate to the automobile's rate factor. From the traveler seat, nonetheless, a bleak as well as unpleasant area of black control panel extends from one's knees to the windscreen; the material does not mention artistry either.
3 types of TLX are available: a four-cylinder, front-drive base design; a V-6, front-drive upgrade; and a V-6, four-wheel drive version as the premium choice.
For the lover, the access point to the TLX array might be the most effective version, although it's not offered with four-wheel drive and also all of the costs additions you'll find at the top of the TLX area. Why? Because it's immaculately balanced, very chuckable, and still comfy adequate to drive the in-laws to breakfast on Sunday.
That 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine isn't greatly powerful at 206 ponies, however it's willing, and also sounds terrific when revved out toward the leading of the tach. Better yet, it's mated with an absolutely dazzling (though counter-intuitive) 8-speed dual-clutch transmission mated to a torque converter. Why a torque converter? Due to the fact that it totally eliminates each one of the stumble as well as fool of a typical dry-clutch arrangement, while supplying all of the crisp upshifts and zingy rev-matched downshifts of the typical arrangement. It's smart, it's lightweight, and it just works.
