2020 Acura TLX vs. Honda Accord

If you have been shopping for a sleek new sedan with all of the bells and whistles, there is a good chance that you have encountered the Acura TLX vs. Honda Accord. While both vehicles have many appealing qualities, only one can earn a spot on your Madison driveway. Let’s see how these two popular sedans compare when it comes to luxury features and reliable performance.

Interior Design and Features

Even when looking at the TLX base model, Jackson drivers will be able to enjoy more standard features than they would if they selected the Honda Accord. This includes plush seating with suede inserts and contrast stitching. If you are looking for sophisticated design at an affordable price, you can’t go wrong with the Acura TLX.

TLX or Accord: Powerful Performance

Jackson drivers that prioritize vehicle performance will once again want to select the Acura TLX vs. Honda Accord. Let’s take a closer look at the specs for each model.

• Standard Engines: The Acura TLX runs on a 2.4L I-4 engine that delivers 206 hp. That is more powerful than what is offered by the competitor from Honda. The Accord is equipped with a 1.5L Intercooled turbo I-4 engine that delivers 192 hp.
• Available Engines: A V6 engine is available for the TLX or Accord, but the TLX V6 engine delivers 290 hp, while the Accord V6 engine delivers just 252 hp.
• Standard Performance Features: You will find Precision All-Wheel Steer™ technology standard on the 2020 Acura TLX in addition to Vehicle Stability Assist™ with Traction Control and Motion Adaptive Steering. These features are not even available to those who choose the Honda Accord.
• Upgraded Performance Features: When you opt for the V6 TLX, you have the option of Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive™. A similar AWD system is not offered with the Honda Accord.

Reliability and Warranty

For added peace of mind on the roads of Ridgeland, you can depend on the Acura TLX and the warranty that comes along with it. That’s why Brandon drivers who choose the TLX can get a 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty, as well as a 6-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty. You only have 3-years/36,000 miles of basic warranty coverage and a 5-years or 60,000 miles of powertrain coverage with the 2019 Honda Accord.
