The 2024 Acura TLX Type S is a visual treat, characterized by its athletic and commanding presence. The exterior boasts a frameless Diamond Pentagon grille, flanked by Jewel Eye® LED headlights that mimics natural sunlight with a gemstone-like appearance. The vehicle's profile is accentuated by sharp lines that flow from the aggressive front fascia to the sleek, tapered rear, where a decklid spoiler and quad exhaust outlets are sculpted for speed and hint at the power within. The TLX Type S is available in an array of sophisticated colors, each chosen to enhance its dynamic silhouette and reflect its luxury sport sedan status. The Type S-exclusive Tiger Eye Pearl is exceptionally stunning when paired with the 20-inch Copper alloy wheels, for a singular look.

Under the hood, the TLX Type S is equipped with a formidable 3.0L Turbo V6 engine, delivering a robust 355 hp. This powertrain is a marvel of engineering, integrating turbocharging and direct injection to provide a surge of power that is both intense and refined. The powertrain is designed not just for speed, but also for an engaging driving experience, offering an ample 354 lbs.-ft. of torque across a wide range of RPMs, ensuring that power is on demand whenever the driver needs it.

Performance in the TLX Type S is about more than just raw speed; it’s about the harmony of all its systems working together to deliver a ride that’s exhilarating yet composed. Equipped with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®), the TLX Type S provides superior traction and cornering capability, allowing it to navigate tight turns and slippery conditions with poise. Precision braking comes courtesy of the Brembo® front 4-piston system. The sedan’s powerful Sport+ mode, accessible through the Integrated Dynamics System (IDS), optimizes the engine, 10-speed transmission, and steering response for an even more spirited driving experience.

Inside, the TLX Type S mirrors its exterior sophistication with a boutique feel that caters to the driver’s and passengers' comfort and connectivity needs. The cabin features premium materials throughout, including full-grain Milano leather seats in Premium Orchid that are both supportive during spirited drives and comfortable on long journeys. Ambient lighting, adjustable to suit mood and time of day, further enhances the interior’s ambiance. Technologically, the TLX Type S is fitted with an intuitive infotainment system that includes a 10.2-inch HD display, Acura’s True Touchpad Interface™, and a critically acclaimed ELS STUDIO® Premium Audio System, developed in collaboration with Grammy-winning producer Elliot Scheiner.

Safety is paramount in the TLX Type S, which incorporates AcuraWatch™, a suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance technologies designed to protect occupants and assist the driver in a variety of traffic conditions. Features such as the Collision Mitigation Braking System™, Adaptive Cruise Control, and the Blind Spot Information System work in tandem to alert and respond to potential road hazards. The Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE™) body structure provides maximum protection in the case of collision with high-strength steel and structural elements to distribute and absorb impact energy away from its most precious cargo—you.
