It sound like most of comments i see they are missing the whole point of this review and clip which is the power and speed , so if your expectations are high like it was mine in that regard ,you are completely looking at the wrong car ,i gave up on my civic to go for something faster and i bought the 2021 tlx a spec and its been nothing but disappointment in terms of power .. i wish i had noticed this video before i completed the purchase ..thanks for the upload

I see none of these issues with my 2021 A-Spec fwd. 🤷 In fact, it has brought me pure joy every since I bought it. I have no issues merging, and it has plenty of pickup for me. It's was a little laggy off the line, not an easy tune fixed that for me, and now it's perfect imo. It turns more heads than any car I've ever owned, especially for a daily driver. I don't see what so many people are crying about... 🤷

This is such a terrible and absurd review. Having owned and driven many of the cars you compare it to, Q50 in particular, it's clear you only care about acceleration. This car has so many features that make it enjoyable, in particular the chassis and suspension. You should take all that weight you are bitching about and chuck it around a corner. The handling on this car is amazing, but you actually have to know how to tackle a turn to feel it. If you don't know how to drive, then you won't even remotely approach this car's limit. Not only that but it's got an amazing sound system, has tons of aggressive styling, easy to use infotainment, and just a great car to live with. The whole point of a sport sedan is that it has all the luxury you'd want out of a daily driver, while also offering a great driving experience. This engine almost revs to 7k, and everything about the car wants you to go. Beyond the fact that this is a k20. Although the trans will limit you, there is so much room to add power without doing much to the car. Really I just felt this review was coming from someone who only knows what the brand's website tells them about the car. The fact that you think there are no twisty road by you to test, says a lot about your driving habits. You can find technical roads anywhere developed in this country, you just have to want to find them. To anyone reading this, this car is great to drive regardless of it's cost. If you enjoy nice handling and a well engineered platform, this is the car to buy.

None of them said this was the fastest sedan out there, but they at least looked at other aspects of the car. Seems like you just have a hard on for 0 to 60 times lol I've been driving mine for just a few days and doubt that I would ever have a problem merging into highway traffic at the proper speed. The TLX is way faster than my previous car, which had no issues in that regard.

A car getting to 60 in 6-7s is pretty average and on par with most of everything else on the road, even the 2.0T Accord is only fractions of a second faster to 60 and most of them on the road are probably the 1.5L or Hybrid which are on par or slower even and on top of that most family vehicles are these CUV/SUV's that are getting to 60 in similar amounts of time with similar weights and similar turbo 4's, yeah it's no race car and a performance enthusiast is going to be disappointed but that car isn't for them.

Lexus IS? Turbo 4. BMW 3 series? Turbo 4. Accords? Turbo 4. Some of them are going to be faster or slower than each other but nobody gives a shit, nobody gives a shit because if they care about performance they have already excluded everything above and are shopping higher end or at least optioning for the higher engines/trims. People who buy the gas efficient 4 bangers absolutely do not give a shit if it takes half a second more to 60 than an Accord so if you're reviewing cars with turbo 4s focusing on the engine's 0-60 is utterly useless to the viewer.

I usually really enjoy your videos and look forward to your commentary on vehicles, but not this one so much. Don't take this offensively but I just don't see the logic in the hate of the vehicle. The entire video felt like a rant complaining about the acceleration for the TLX. I watched your volvo s60 t5 road trip video a few months back and you never complained about the acceleration of that car. If your biggest concern is the acceleration of the vehicle, than I don't understand the praise for the RDX when it's a slower vehicle than the TLX. The TLX (5.8sec 0-60) is objectively quicker than the volvo s60 t5 (6.1sec 0-60) and the RDX (6.5 sec 0-60).
@RoadandTract3 жыл бұрын
Because Acura is supposed to be a honed, precise, sporty vehicle - that's what separates them from Hondas. And when the Accord is faster, Acura didn't work hard at all in the TLX. Where's the benefit? Why blow the cash on the TLX, supposedly their best effort, when it flops? Nobody expects a T5 S60 Volvo to be a rocket - because it isn't. And when I suggest the RDX, it's because it feels better overall and as it's a CUV, residual value will be much higher than the TLX sedan. These companies spent so much money on CUV development, sedans just fall by the wayside. Take the Infiniti QX30 for instance. It's a collaboration with the old Mercedes GLA, but at $44k, it has an Alcantara headliner. Yet, in the $70k Q70 sedan, you can't get an Alcantara headliner. This is unacceptable.

I completely agree with all the things you mentioned. I'm currently driving a 2022 TLX SH-AWD loaner from my dealer while they work on my 2020 SH-AWD V6. The turbo makes it feel peppy but overall it feels a lot slower than my V6. To my surprise, when I looked up the specs as listed by Acura, the I4 turbo does 0-60 in 7.0 secs while the older V6 does it in 6.2 secs. The ride definitely feels sportier, lower to the ground, and the double wishbone front adds a better handling experience but the car feels severely underpowered for its weight and size. I can not drive this car in any mode but Sport or Sport + because the throttle lag is unbelievable. Thank god they put the paddle shifters in because the transmission does not do a good job of transitioning to a lower gear unless you mash the pedal as you mentioned. It's been less than a day and I miss my V6 lol.

I do find there are situations where you’re better off using the paddle shifters vs waiting for it to do what you want mashing the pedal. Sometimes inexplicably it doesn’t seem to switch to gears that are available to get the torque you know you can get with shifters. The AWD, btw is awesome in the winter with snow.

I had a 2020 TLX V6 Aspec and I just switched to the 2021 Tlx aspec 2.0 turbo. Big mistake. Unfortunately to enjoy the redesigned interior and exterior i had to trade comfort, power, and Build quality. The 2021 Tlx feels almost like a Hyundai, the seats are less comfortable, the engine is an absolute JOKE. I like the new interior, but its not even a WOW. They still have an analog display, when even Honda Civic have full digital display. The 2020 v6 Tlx aspec had a DATED interior looked like something from 2010, but offered a beautiful V6 engine with power available on demand, great suspension, and the most comfortable seats out of all the competitors. Its almost as if the old version has what the new one doesn’t and the new version has what the old one doesn’t. Acura likes to pretend they’re a sport luxury brand but they offer a mediocre cheap quality car. Im a long time acura customer and im really disappointed and actually disgusted with the new TLX. And btw the TLX TYPE S, gets SMOKED by an audi S4 or bmw 340I any day of the week. Waste of money. For a difference of 100-200$ a month i can get a German car that actually delivers on luxury and performance. Get better Acura.
