Exploring the Trim Levels of the 2025 Acura TLX: Customize Your Performance Sedan

1. Technology

The base Technology trim level of the 2025 TLX is powered by a 2.0-liter mono-scroll turbo four-cylinder engine with 272 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque.

Front-wheel drive is standard. Inside, you'll enjoy heated sport seats trimmed in perforated Milano leather and 12-way power adjustments.

GPS-linked dual-zone automatic climate control is standard and uses a sensor to track the sun's position to adjust the inside temperature accordingly. Ambient lighting with 27 themes lets you customize the mood, and the 12.3-inch center display with a True Touchpad Interface and built-in navigation controls the 13-speaker ELS Studio audio system.

2. A-Spec

The A-Spec trim features the same engine and transmission as the Technology package but upgrades the front-wheel drive to Acura's Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system for even sportier handling and performance. LED fog lights also become standard. The heated and ventilated front sport seats inside still feature premium Milano leather, but Ultrasuede trim is added to the interior with contrast piping and stitching. Brushed aluminum trim with a geometric pattern and an ebony headliner add to the luxurious feel.

3. Type S

For maximum power, the Type S swaps the base engine for a 3.0-liter twin-scroll turbo six-cylinder that makes 355 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque and features rev-matching downshifts. The standard Amplitude Reactive Dampers on the first two models are replaced by an Adaptive Damper System, which uses sensor data to continuously adjust a valve to raise or lower the damper fluid pressure. A Brembo four-piston front braking system also becomes standard, and LED puddle lights are added for convenience.

The front seats include 16-way power adjustments with thigh extensions and side bolsters for maximum comfort, and a 10.5-inch head-up display places important vehicle information in the driver's line of sight.
