Good to see someone review an Acura fairly. I've seen other reviews that clearly showed the reviewer went in with a "not gonna like it" approach which was evidenced by a sort of passive aggressive tone - it's alright but...or still referring to the front end as a beak (which to me was thankfully fixed some time ago). Acura has dragged they're balls in the past but hopefully now that they are their own decision making division separate from Honda (with their own leadership) things can turn around for them. Let's get a Type R or S model and an Integra style sports coupe ive been hearing internet whisper about.
@aaronbehindbars10 жыл бұрын
Is the. Acura's push-button transmission really that bad? To me, it doesn't seem like it would be functionally inferior to a lever or rotary dial, but I also haven't had the benefit of sampling one. With a lever, you can simply lay your hand on it and selected your gear by feel. Does this button setup have enough tactile feel to allow eyes-free operation? Seems that in keeping with the traditional layout of P-R-N-D and making the reverse button one the finger hook and the drive button big and round, you would fairly quickly learn the feel and master its operation. I am offering a critique which I think is more of an observation about auto journalists in general. It seems that when you are driving so many different vehicles all the time and you may only have one for a few days, it would be hard to get settled in a vehicle thus making it more difficult to review them from the perspective of a long term owner. That is not to say that such oddities or idiosyncrasies aren't worth mentioning. I am often surprised at some of the nitpicks I see raised, so I started thinking that the more time you spend with a car, the less you might notice such things. Odd part for me in my vehicle buying experiences is that it's usually the less glaring things you don't see at first that end up being most annoying in the long-term.

The TLX is simply a great car. The transmission setup is great so I don’t share your opinions regarding it being too complex and not freeing up space. Compared to BMW and Lexus which have the traditional shift lever (auto) and they often get in the way, especially when putting anything into the cup holders. The Technology package also gives the TLX some great features that bring great value unlike some premium packages that cost twice as much yet gives you half the tech you paid for. Zero to 60 times range from 5.8 - 6.1 for the V6 SH AWD version...

I disagree - the transmission controls don't seem that complicated. Push P for Park, D for Drive and pull R back for Reverse. When you own a car, this all becomes second nature, and all the luxury cars have some fancy transmission control. Mercedes has their steering wheel stalk, and BMW has a joystick like thing that controls the transmission. I think the more egregious complaint about the transmission is that it sometimes can't find the right gear, and that the shifts aren't as crisp as they should be.

But, again, it would be a good comparison of performance in the different modes. And, even a track run in all driving modes (after the Acura's brakes cool down of course..haha) I test drove the FWD V-6 TLX and did not find the transmission functions distracting at all. After just one run, I felt comfortable with the set-up's functionality. The C-Class has an electronic stalk on the column. BMW has its gear-knob-but-not-really-a-gear-knob electronic function.

The Acura is closer to 7 sec and the Volvo closer to 6.2.... at sealevel in good conditions.

Turbocharged cars do not lose any power at these altitudes. They take longer to build boost, but do not lose power.

I realize that when they test cars especially for a comparison, they can't always get two or more cars with the exact same options and features, that being said - for this test, they really needed to put the AWD V6 Acura with an AWD I-6 Volvo to be fair. While both the 6 cylinders versions have torque vectoring AWD (Acura calls their "Super Handling)... the Volvo S60 R-Design has 325hp & 354 ft-lb torque while the Acura TLX V6 has 290hp & 267 ft-lb torque. Since both cars are within a few hundred pounds of each other and the Volvo has 35 more horses and nearly 90 more ft-lb of torque, the Volvo R-Deisgn would simply eat the Acura for lunch on the track as well as the road.

I actually like the gear selectors, didn't know the acura had this. Pretty cool. I imagine someone that doesn't know about it going in the car and saying where the fuck is the stick?

This comparison seems unequal. Acura has SHAWD but Volvo doesn’t. While Volvo is turbocharged and the dynamics of the car are very different than Acura.

Just Imagine if they added a turbo and manual transmission to the TLX?
