* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.
- Reliability (4)Acura generally has a strong reputation for reliability, and the TLX is expected to follow suit with proven powertrains and components.
- Maintenance (3)Maintenance costs are generally in line with other premium Japanese brands, which are typically more affordable than European luxury competitors, though still higher than mainstream vehicles.
- Technology (4)Acura's infotainment system, while having a learning curve with its trackpad interface, offers good features like wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and a premium ELS audio system. Safety tech is comprehensive.
- Comfort (3)The interior is well-appointed with comfortable seats, but the ride can be a bit firm with the A-SPEC's sport-tuned suspension, especially over rougher pavement. Rear legroom is adequate but not class-leading.
- Dynamics (4)The SH-AWD system provides excellent grip and handling, making the TLX feel agile for its size. The A-SPEC adds a sportier edge, though it's not a full-blown performance sedan.
