it's comparable in weight to the other AWD performance cars its size and basic configuration (the 540i xDrive and the A6 55 TFSI), and it easily walks the Accord Sport 2.0T in roll racing as seen on this channel. As per the performance interest in it, it's one of the fastest cars in its class in terms of handling. Morotrend's Figure 8 test had the Type S beating the S4 and matching the m340i, despite both being much smaller, lighter cars with better acceleration. It's more than Honda put all of its eggs in the handling basket; they more than sufficiently compensated for its size and weight in handling, but should have been making 400 (or more) horsepower to compensate for it in a straight line. Although it's comparable in weight to the A6 and 540i xDrive, it's still slower than both in a straight line. But that's the exchange; do you want better handling and more acceleration from the factory.

The CVT isn’t “1 speed”. Technically it is infinite speed because the transmission is “continuously variable”. Also the CVT allows maximum performance because it allows the car to stay at maximum HP throughout the entire run. Max acceleration at a given speed is achieved at maximum HP.
@ROBMACDUI2 жыл бұрын
Yes once moving but from a stop Cvts will always suffer. Additionally there is a hard limit to how much torques they can withstand before slipping and that limit will decrease as the transmission wears. Once they start slipping you are talking about a full rebuild so as soon as you’ve realized you’ve hit that limit you’ve done irreversible damage.
@LearningFast2 жыл бұрын
@@ROBMACDUI the reliability of CVTs is definitely a significant concern. That is why performance cars don’t use them. However, a CVT still offers better performance than any other transmission as long as it can sustain the HP/torque the engine is producing.
@ROBMACDUI2 жыл бұрын
@@LearningFast agreed on paper but that torque limit is such an issue that every manufacturer using them has to limit throttle when accelerating from a stop and is the reason why Toyota uses a standard first gear in their CVTS.
@LearningFast2 жыл бұрын
@@ROBMACDUI yes, that is correct. Manufacturers typically have to retard the performance of an engine to safeguard the CVT. However, the CVT is still capable of getting optimal performance if it is robust enough to handle the HP/Torque loads. They have newer versions of CVTs that don’t use belts so those are more reliable. Reliability is always a concern with them though. Ironically, electric vehicles could benefit the most for performance from a CVT if the CVT could handle the torque of an electric ⚡️ motor.

How to you know that? The Integra type s will likely come with the 2.0 with 272hp. That motor is in the Accord and the TLX type s beats it (Sam has a video on it). Granted the Accord 2.0 will likely be heavier than the Integra type-s, but even if you look at the 2021 Civic type R (has the 2.0 with 305 hp), its a driver's race between that and the TLX type s. C&D shows the number for both cars and they are very close (type R is 0.1s faster to 60 and 0.3 sec faster in the quarter mile). The math doesn't support your claim. Do your homework before saying that you KNOW something.

Kind of crazy that you call the TLX “Stock” with SIGNIFICANTLY lighter wheels and a “Straight pipe exhaust”. Lighter wheels offer MUCH less rotational mass especially for large diameter wheels. That alone increases acceleration significantly. A true straight pipe exhaust on a turbo car will matter too. Then you don’t even mention what is done to the Civic. You just say it has an “Impressive wrap”. That is something that truly doesn’t matter for acceleration.
@BCautosolutions2 жыл бұрын
He said 5lbs per wheel I think that’s 20 total pounds which is less then the 6 lbs the y spokes weigh less over the multi spokes. Also the car in sport + mode bypasses the muffler and is essentially straight pipe so his “mods” really didn’t alter much if anything
@LearningFast2 жыл бұрын
@@BCautosolutions nothing of what you said is accurate. 5 pounds of rotational mass per wheel is EXTREMELY SIGNIFICANT. Learn what rotational mass means. It is much more significant for acceleration than static weight. Also “Sport plus mode” does NOT equal straight piped. That statement is just absurd.
@BCautosolutions2 жыл бұрын
@@LearningFast stock wheels vs 20lbs total weight lighter wheels equals to insignificant 0-60 and 1/4 changes, there’s plenty videos proving this. And again one can achieve this by simply purchasing the optional y spoke wheels which actually lose 6lbs per corner. On a road course prob see a difference in a drag race most likely not. Also I take it you never looked at an exhaust of a type s so you lack of understanding here isn’t surprising
@MrSamPhoenix2 жыл бұрын
4,000 pounds is still 4,000 pounds. The TLX Type-S is still too heavy even with the lighter wheels. & the better exhaust isn’t going to give it crazy amounts of extra power.
@LearningFast2 жыл бұрын
@@BCautosolutions you’re wrong. Just simply wrong. Yes, absolutely the stock exhaust bypasses the muffler and that doesn’t improve performance. However, he said this is a “straight piped exhaust”. That would mean it bypasses EVERYTHING in the exhaust. That would make a SIGNIFICANT difference. Perhaps he said straight piped but didn’t actually mean that. That is one thing. However, if it truly is straight piped then you certainly can’t call that car “stock”.

@yyyyyy81552 жыл бұрын
The advantage of front wheel drive is call drive train drag Awd- drags like 45% from power distribution to each individual wheel Rwd-drags like 30% due to the power distribution from the transmission thru the drive shaft to the tires. Fwd-drag like 15% since the transmission sit's closes to the tires it's inverting the power too and only has to go thru a pair of Cv axles so it a big weight advantage on power distribution compared to the other methods of power distribution. Hope this helps👋
