2024 Acura TLX Changes
Acura’s TLX has received a mid-life refresh for the 2024 model year. The range has been streamlined, while the Technology Package now comes standard. The infotainment screen has expanded to 12.3 inches, the cabin receives additional soundproofing, and the blind-spot monitoring system has been improved.
Choosing Your 2024 Acura TLX
There are three trim levels across the TLX range, all paired with different mechanicals. The standard two-liter turbo gas engine can be mated with either FWD or AWD (the latter a $5,000 upgrade in tandem with a higher level of specification), while the meaty three-liter turbo V6 can only be had with AWD and in flagship Type S guise.
Prices start at $46,195 for a TLX Technology, rising to $58,195 for the aforementioned V6 Type S.
2024 Acura TLX Engine Options
The 2024 Acura TLX engine range starts with a two-liter turbocharged gas engine generating 272 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, fed to either the front or all four wheels through a ten-speed automatic transmission. Performance is enhanced in the three-liter V6 turbo model to 355 hp and 354 lb-ft, allied to a sport-tuned version of the same gearbox and standard AWD.
Engine Type | Horsepower | Torque |
2.0 turbo | 272 hp | 280 lb-ft |
3.0 V6 turbo | 355 hp | 354 lb-ft |
2024 Acura TLX Fuel Economy
2024 Acura TLX fuel economy hasn’t yet been announced by the EPA. However, there are no significant mechanical changes from the 2023 model, which returned 22 miles per gallon city, 31 mpg highway, and 25 combined in two-liter FWD Technology models. Gas mileage drops in AWD A-Spec models to 21/29/24, while the Type S returns 19/25/21 mpg.
2024 Acura TLX Towing Capacity
Few people would choose a TLX as their tow car of choice, but it is capable of towing up to 2,000 lbs.
2024 Acura TLX Dimensions & Cargo Capacity
2024 Acura TLX dimensions include a 113-inch wheelbase and a total width of just over 75 inches. 2024 Acura TLX cargo space stands at 13.5 cu ft with the rear seats in place.
2024 Acura TLX Safety
Acura doesn’t make you choose high-end trims to enjoy a full roster of safety aids. Every TLX comes with a collision mitigation braking system and advanced pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control including low-speed follow and traffic jam assistance, and a lane-keeping assist system with road departure mitigation.
There’s traffic sign recognition, auto high-beam headlights, blind spot information, and rear cross-traffic monitoring, plus front and rear parking sensors. Type S models are unique in receiving rain-sensing wipers with a de-icer facility built in.
2024 Acura TLX Technology
Now that the Technology Package is standard, even base TLXs receive wireless smartphone mirroring and wireless charging, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and an identically sized HD center display.
Audiophiles will love the standard 13-speaker ELS Studio audio system, powering HD and satellite radio. 3D navigation is also standard across the range, while the main tech upgrade on higher trims is the addition of overhead speakers.
2024 Acura TLX Trims & Prices
2024 Acura TLX Technology – MSRP from $46,195
Build & Price >It might be the most affordable TLX, but Technology models still look dashing on their 19-inch gray wheels, with a variety of LED lights peppering their exterior. A tilt-and-slide moonroof illuminates a cabin cooled by dual-zone GPS-linked climate control, while a leather-wrapped steering wheel faces perforated leather sports seats with 12-way power, power lumbar, and heating. The interior also benefits from brushed aluminum trim, active sound deadening, and ambient LED lighting with a total of 27 different themes.
There are no packages on any TLX model.
2024 Acura TLX A-Spec – MSRP from $51,195
Build & Price >AWD-only A-Spec models are distinguished externally by their gloss black spoiler, LED fog lights, and a dedicated sports exterior package, as well as being available in red or blue paint schemes. The steering wheel is flat-bottom, Ultrasuede accents enliven the sports seats, and the front occupants also benefit from ventilation, while an additional four ELS speakers are embedded overhead for a more immersive soundscape.
2024 Acura TLX Type S – MSRP from $58,195
Build & Price >You wouldn’t notice the chassis bracing or rev-matching downshift transmission fitted to Type S models, but the 20-inch split-spoke wheels with their Brembo brake calipers are instantly obvious, as are the gloss black front splitter and rear diffuser. The front seats receive ventilation and 16-way power including thigh extensions and side bolsters, while a 10.5-inch head-up display is the standout feature from the driver’s seat.
While Type S models offer hugely appealing performance, we’d stick with base Technology trim, which balances impressive equipment with genuine value for money.
