Ultimate 2025 Acura TLX Road Test Review

Ultimate 2025 Acura TLX Road Test Review

The 2025 Acura TLX is a luxury sedan with an edge. It’s sharp, athletic, and packed with features that punch above its price point. Whether you’re looking for sporty driving dynamics, premium comfort, or an interior that feels straight out of a high-end performance car, the TLX delivers.

Acura hasn’t made many changes for 2025, but that’s not a bad thing. The TLX was already one of the most well-balanced sports sedans on the road—and it still is.

Performance: Precision at Your Fingertips

Step on the gas, and the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine responds with 284 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The 10-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly, keeping power ready when you need it. Put it in Sport mode, and it comes alive. It’s quick, refined, and just the right amount of aggressive.

Handling? Crisp. Precise. Confident. The Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system—available on all trims—gives the TLX a level of control and agility that’s rare in this segment. Tight turns? No problem. Open highway? Effortless. The adaptive suspension keeps the ride composed, whether you’re carving up back roads or cruising in comfort.

Comfort & Cabin Feel: Quiet, Upscale, Driver-Focused

Slide into the ultra-supportive front seats, and you’ll notice the TLX was built with the driver in mind. Everything feels intentional. Everything feels premium.

• The heated and ventilated seats adjust automatically based on the temperature outside.
• The steering wheel feels substantial, with just the right amount of weight in your hands.
• Noise? Hardly any. Acura nailed the sound insulation, making every drive whisper-quiet.

Rear seats? Comfortable for most, though taller passengers may find legroom a little snug. But for front-seat luxury? The TLX delivers.

Tech & Infotainment: A High-Tech Cabin

Acura doesn’t skimp on tech, and the 2025 TLX is loaded with premium features:

• A 10.2-inch infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• The ELS Studio 3D sound system—one of the best audio setups in any luxury car.
• A fully digital driver’s display, offering crisp, easy-to-read information.

The only quirk? Acura’s True Touchpad Interface (TTI), which replaces a traditional touchscreen with a trackpad. It takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it’s intuitive. One look around and you’ll see—the TLX is a tech-filled sedan that feels entirely modern.
