For 2019, the Acura ILX gets another facelift. Yes, this car’s been with us since 2012, and yes, it’s still based on the last-generation Honda Civic’s platform. Yet Acura has somehow injected a healthy dose of relevance to its dated subcompact luxury sedan. If anything, this version is its most …

Since Acura’s compact luxury sedan was partially redesigned for the 2018 model year, receiving the brand’s now-signature Diamond Pentagon Grille amongst other styling and technological enhancements, very little changes have been made to the TLX for 2019. It notably competes against the Buick Regal , the Genesis G70 and the …

Essentially, even if Acura were to restrict its lineup to only the RDX and …

You probably already know that the MDX and RDX generate the highest volume of sales at Honda’s luxury brand. This was true long before SUV sales skyrocketed. With the competition heating up across all SUV categories, Acura has decided to stand pat for now and rely on this tandem. For …

At the Montreal International Auto Show, performance enthusiasts will be able to admire the revised and improved version of the sublime Acura NSX. Revived for the 2017 model year after a 10-year absence on the market, the NSX remains Acura’s heart and soul, the brand’s halo car. For 2019, the …

The compact ILX sedan has been around for quite a while now, and although it could’ve been due for a clean-sheet redesign, Acura has given some notable improvements to the current-generation car instead. First and foremost, the 2019 Acura ILX boasts a new face that bears a family resemblance with …

Acura has quite a challenge ahead if it wishes to convince us that its True Touchpad Interface can do better than a more traditional multimedia interface... People who consult The Car Guide regularly already know what we think of Lexus’s own in-car touchpad interface . It’s clumsy, veering on the …

The production version of the Acura RDX luxury midsize SUV, whose virtually identical prototype was seen at the Detroit Motor Show in January, has just been unveiled in nearly simultaneous premieres at the New York and Vancouver Auto Shows.
