Premium Technologies and Sporty Features

Developed by Acura's leading engineers, a 3.0-liter engine propels the 2021 TLX Type S. Boosted by a turbocharging unit with twin scrolls, the V-6 powerhouse kicks out 355 horsepower. Compressing gasoline at 9.8:1 ratios, the turbo powerplant dishes out 354 pound-feet of torque at remarkably low tachometer readings. All output is handled by an automatic transmission system that makes 10 distinct gear speeds. This unique gearbox makes a great combination with the Super Handling All-Wheel Drive, which provides true torque-vectoring capabilities for dynamic handling. With additional leverage from the Rev-Matching Downshifts, you will handle this Acura sports sedan like a professional. When the turbo engine is on, the Adaptive Damper Suspension continuously monitors the road. If necessary, the ADS quickly adjusts the properties of the damper fluid. The Integrated Dynamics System makes it easy to customize the ride in the 2021 TLX Type S. This is the only trim on the roster that has the Sport+ Mode, which creates unique acoustics in the sound system. This mode also holds the gears longer for smooth transitions in speed on the road. Some other performance-oriented technologies on this athletic sedan include the Agile Handling Assist and Electro-Servo Brake System. Measuring 14.3 inches in diameter, the ventilated front disc brakes are standard for on-demand deceleration. Four-piston calipers with the Brembo branding are integrated into this advanced braking system.

When you hop inside the sporty cockpit of the 2021 TLX Type S, you will admire the climate-controlled, 16-way front seats. Ultrasuede inserts are nicely integrated into these high-end seats that are wrapped in perforated leather. Measuring just over 10 inches wide, an HD touch screen with split views takes a central position inside the cabin. When you're focused on steering, you can still engage the AcuraLink multimedia system through the True Touchpad Interface located in the center console. Featuring the Real-Time Traffic service, the Acura Navigation System will guide you on the road. You'll also get 17 speakers with the ELS Studio 3D design for enhanced entertainment. Developed through a partnership with Panasonic, this exclusive sound system has the signature Highline speakers integrated into the ceiling.
