Acura announced that it has started mass-production of the all-new 2015 Acura TLX at the Marysville Auto Plant in Ohio.
The automaker revealed in a statement that its new performance luxury sedan is slated to land at dealerships nationwide in August. The all-new 2015 TLX is designed, developed and engineered by R&D teams in Ohio and Los Angeles. It “delivers on its advertising tagline of “It’s that kind of thrill” combining incredible sports-sedan athleticism with premium luxury-sedan refinement,” Acura said.
The new TLX features two advanced new powertrains and two next-generation Acura precision-handling technologies – Precision All-Wheel Steer (P-AWS) and Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD).
The automaker said that it is producing the TLX’s two powerful and efficient direct-injected engines – a 206-horsepower 2.4-liter DOHC inline 4-cylinder, and a 290-horsepower 3.5-liter SOHC V-6 – at its state-of-the-art engine plant in nearby Anna, Ohio.
“The start of mass production of the TLX marks a new era for our Acura sedan lineup,” stated Mike Accavitti, senior vice president and general manager of Acura. “The TLX is built in a world-class facility with a world class workforce and we can’t wait to get this thrilling sedan into the hands of our customers in just a few short weeks.”
