2008 Acura TSX review
Home > Site
Map > Acura TSX
The 2008 Acura
TSX is earmarked for first time luxury car shoppers and is situated in between the Acura TL sedan and RSX coupe in size. A 3.2-liter engine
with i-VTEC powers the 2008 TSX and generates a respectable 200 horsepower.
European competitors feel the 2008 Acura TSX breathing down their necks
with drive train and suspension components such as a six-speed manual
transmission, independent suspension and Vehicle Stability Assist. Generous
amenities included in the Acura TSX price that add to the refined road
manners of the 2008 Acura TSX include:
| Aluminum,
3.2-liter, 24-valve, 60-degree V-6 engine |
| Four-wheel
disc brakes |
| 17-inch wheels and V-rated tires |
| Double-wishbone
suspension |
Beyond the 2008 Acura TSX price and picture substantiating the claim
of near luxury/sports car status are the standard features we list in
our 2008 Acura TSX review:
| Dual-zone
climate control |
| Leather
seating |
| 360-watt premium sound system |
| Side
curtain airbags |
| HID headlights |
Cruise control, power windows, power 8-way driver's seat, tilt/telescopic
steering wheel, split folding rear seatbacks, and heated mirrors are
other features that prove you are getting a good value for the 2008
Acura TSX price.
The engine compartment of the Acura TSX cradles a powerful yet obedient
2.4 liter twin cam 16 valve four cylinder engine which produces a respectable
200 horsepower at 6800 rpm and 166 lb-ft of torque at 4500 rpm. All
of this power is harnessed in the 2008 TSX by means of variable valve
and cam timing controls. Offering the quickest 0 to 100 km/h time in
its class: just 7.3 seconds, the 2008 Acura TSX accomplishes this with
the aid of VTEC, exhibiting a very smooth, even torque profile. Continuing
the presentation of 2008 Acura TSX review of performance specs, the
gas mileage numbers are as follows: 11.3 l/100 km city and 8.2 l/100
km highway.
To make the handling of the 2008 TSX even more reminiscent of a European
road car, Acura has installed independent double wishbone suspension,
low profile Michelin MXM4 215/50R-17 inch all-season radials, and standard
disc brakes with ABS and EBD. To restore traction and directional control
in the event of a near skid, Acura employs Traction Control and Vehicle
Stability Assist systems. If you are still not impressed with the specs
we have presented in this 2008 Acura TSX review and picture, maybe you
should consider taking a test drive. Only then, perhaps, will the power,
performance, and style of the new 2008 Acura TSX live up to the promise
of a luxury sports car. Get a 2008 Acura TSX price quote by clicking
