Product Overview

Acura TLX (chassis code UB1/UB2/UB3/UB4) facelift is an executive sedan in production from 2017 to 2020. It was available with an inline-4 and a V6 engine that displaced 2.4 and 3.5 liters respectively.

Compared to the pre-facelift model, the facelift TLX received a notably different front fascia, which is much more aggressive and arguably fits the character of the vehicle more. A new A-Spec performance trim was also added, though it didn't involve mechanical changes.

As before, Acura has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.28 coefficient of drag to show for it.

Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Acura TLX uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
