The entry-level TLX is a mixed bag at best, impressing with its styling but leaving us scratching our heads over its subpar fuel economy and cramped backseat. Acura's doing its best here to make a midsize front-wheel-drive platform competitive with sport-sedan stalwarts like the BMW 3 Series, but that's a tall order.
Add all-wheel drive to the TLX and you get more weight and even worse fuel economy compared to the base front-wheel-drive model. Those are predictable outcomes, but the fact remains that the TLX SH-AWD is heaver and less fuel-efficient than top rivals in this class.
Like its lesser brethren, the TLX Type-S has some distinct weaknesses compared to rival sport sedans, chiefly its underwhelming fuel economy and cramped backseat. We like the turbo V6's refinement and acceleration, but there's only so much you can do to a Honda Accord-adjacent platform to turn it into a world-beating sport luxury sedan.
