Product Overview

Acura TL 2 / Honda Inspire (chassis code UA5) is an executive sedan in production from 1998 to 2003. It was available with a range of V6 engines that displaced 2.5 to 3.2 liters.

The engines were only paired to automatic transmissions, even though Honda is known to produce some of the best manual transmissions. This confirms the market positioning of the TL as a comfort- (luxury-) oriented vehicle.

Honda has endowed the TL 2 with double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspensions.
