Across the second generation the TLX has been notable for chassis balance, Acura’s SH‑AWD system on AWD models, a 12.3‑inch display with touchpad interface, and a compact-but-upscale interior; power across the 2021–2025 run ranged from about 272–355 hp and EPA economy in U.S. testing generally sat in the high‑teens to low‑30s mpg depending on drivetrain and tune.\n\nFollowing a 2024 refresh the TLX carried unchanged into 2025, offered in standard (2.0T) and Type S (3.0T) forms and in sport/appearance and luxury equipment levels (A‑Spec / Advance).
