Acura's TLX luxury midsize sedan gets a new look and infotainment system, more safety features and a sporty new A-Spec package for 2018. A strong performer since its debut, the TLX has had a hard time earning recognition in a category dominated by German cars, but the new A-Spec package could help, as it includes stiffer springs, more aggressive dampers, a sportier steering ratio, and wider wheels in addition to look and feel upgrades that give the car a very different driving character.

The 2018 TLX offers two engines, a base 2.4-liter 4-cylinder with 206 horsepower and 182 lb-ft of torque or a 3.5-liter V6 with 290 hp and 267 lb-ft. The four uses an 8-speed automatic, while the V6 uses a new 9-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive is available across the lineup. Acura says the new infotainment system is 35% faster than last year's, and it now supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. All TLXs also get the AcuraWatch suite of driver-assistance and collision-avoidance features for 2018. Read the full review on CarGurus: https://cargur.us/mhXhv
