Two powertrain options are available. A 2.4-liter four-cylinder DOHC I-VTEC engine is available with direct injection mated to a dual-clutch transmission and Motion-Adaptive Electronic Power Steering, Precision All-Wheel Steer (P-AWS) through Integrated Dynamics System. The Honda designed dual clutch transmission is the first to use a torque converter, this is done to absorb transmission gear shift shock reducing NVH. The engine is rated at 206 hp with an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 24/35/28 mpg (city/highway/combined) compared to 22/31/26 from the previous TSX. Honda estimates it is 1.5 seconds faster from 0 to 60 mph, the 4-cylinder TLX will start at $31,890 or $360 more than the retiring TSX. Both the 4-cylinder TLX and 4-cylinder automatic TSX weigh the same.
