Power That Demands Attention

So, what’s under the hood? The 2025 TLX Type S boasts a robust 3.0-liter turbocharged V6, churning out 355 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a 10-speed automatic and Acura’s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®), it rockets from 0–60 mph in just 4.6 seconds, with a top speed of 156 mph. If adrenaline is what you seek, this sedan doesn’t disappoint.

What Makes Acura’s SH-AWD® a Game-Changer?

SH-AWD® is Acura’s secret sauce for superior handling and driving fun. It sends power not just to the front OR back, but also between the rear wheels, giving you:

• Tighter Cornering: More torque is sent to the outside rear wheel, so you stick to the road in turns.
• Confident Handling: SH-AWD® keeps you planted, even on rain-slicked or snowy roads.
• Sporty Feel: Enjoy rear-wheel-drive agility with all the security of all-wheel drive.

Basically, you’re getting sports car dynamics wrapped in a luxury sedan package.

Interior Details That Wow

Step inside the TLX Type S and you’re greeted by:

• Exclusive Milano Leather Seats with Ultrasuede® Inserts: 16-way power adjustment, side bolsters, and Type S branding for that custom, sporty touch.
• Driver-Centric Dashboard: Quick-access drive mode selector and a stunning 12.3-inch digital gauge display that puts all the crucial info right where you need it.
• Tech & Connectivity: Enjoy a 10.2-inch HD infotainment screen (upgraded for 2025), plus wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. An available 10.5-inch head-up display keeps your focus on the road.
