Acura TL
The TL luxury sedan combines comfort and reliability. Extremely high-tech, the dashboard unites a plethora of controls that are hard to figure out without the owner’s manual, at least in the beginning. The versions equipped with front-wheel drive get a 280-hp 3.5L V6, while those with the excellent SH-AWD all-wheel drive feature a 305-hp 3.7L V6.
