Used 2023 Acura TLX Sedan Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
When you buy an Acura TLX, you choose option packages that effectively serve as trim levels. The 2023 lineup is base, Technology, A-Spec, Advance and Type S. All but the Type S have a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (272 horsepower, 280 lb-ft of torque), a 10-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. Acura's SH-AWD system is optional. The TLX Type S sports a unique turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (355 hp, 354 lb-ft) and comes with SH-AWD as standard equipment.
Which TLX trim does Edmunds recommend?
We recommend the TLX Technology equipped with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD). The SH-AWD system improves driving dynamics in the dry and enhances traction in the wet and snow. Meanwhile, the Technology package adds larger wheels, premium leather upholstery, and a complete set of infotainment and safety technologies for a remarkably affordable price.
