2022 Acura MDX Changes

The Acura MDX is back for 2022, sporting an all-new exterior design and many updates under the hood.

2022 Acura NSX Changes

The NSX is going out with a bang in the final production year. This hybrid supercar introduces a 600-horsepower Type S trim level. You know, just in case the twin-turbo V6 with three motors that puts out a standard 573-horsepower wasn’t enough supercar power under the hood. There will only be 350 units of the Type S produced, and its wider wheels with Brembo brakes, decals, a carbon-fiber roof, and P-Zero tires ensure it stands out from the other trims. There is also a lightweight package available that adds carbon-fiber engine covers and carbon-ceramic brakes that reduce the weight of this supercar by 58 pounds.

2022 Acura ILX Changes

There are no changes for the 2022 model year on the 201-horsepower ILX compact sedan that comes in the Technology, Premium, and A-Spec packages. However, there is word that this is because the ILX will be replaced by the reboot of the Integra hitting lots in the 2023 model year.

2022 Acura TLX Changes

Because the TLX midsize sedan was all-new for the 2021 model year, it comes into 2022 with no fundamental changes. The 2022 TLX comes standard with a 272-horsepower turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine and a 355-horsepower V6 turbo that comes with the Type S.
