The 2018 Acura TLX competes against the best midsize luxury sedans on the market. A reputation for being extremely reliable gives the TLX a big advantage over its European rivals. While even the base TLX deserves some serious consideration, the new A-Spec model is especially fun. To give the TLX a more exciting character on the road, Acura has released a sports-tuned A-Spec trim. Meanwhile, new front-end styling helps give the 2018 model a sharper appearance. Acura also updated the sedan’s infotainment system.

A fine balance between a comfortable ride and performance handling.
