Acura has enabled an A-Spec package to the 2019 lineup of TLX to add that sporty spirit with some extra body panels and better seating arrangements.

Acceleration off-the-line was surprisingly strong while on the other hand, the all-wheel-drive system effortless handled well with its smooth cornering and all these driving inputs were carried away with a prompt obedience by all the components as a well-organized team of a quicker steering, a stiffer spring rate and a rear stabilizer.
