With impressive options like the 2022 Acura TLX and the 2022 Mercedes-Benz C-Class available for you to consider, a detailed review of the possibilities is in order. Both of these options are small premium sedans. While they seemingly have comparable appeal at first glance, a closer look exposes various important differences. Before selecting, what should you know about the 2022 TLX and the 2022 C-Class?
Performance
The 2022 TLX has two powertrain options. A 272-horsepower, turbo 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine is standard in most trims. It is combined with a 10-speed auto transmission and either front-wheel drive or super-handling all-wheel drive. The TLX’s top trim has a 355-horsepower, turbo 3.0-liter, V6 engine. It is paired with the same transmission and includes super-handling all-wheel drive as a standard feature. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is available with one engine option. This is a 255-horsepower, turbo 2.0-liter, four-cylinder system. It is joined by a mild-hybrid component that is good for short bursts of 20 additional horsepower. This engine is combined with a nine-speed auto transmission and rear-wheel drive.
Appearance
The Acura TLX’s last major refresh occurred in 2021, so everything about the 2022 version’s façade has modern appeal. The profile shows a long, powerful hood with a strong slope through the roof. The nose displays Acura’s pentagon-shaped grille as well as edgy, LED-enhanced headlights and sharp, triangular air vents. The sides have smoothly flared haunches. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class also has a refreshed look. Its nose is shorter, and it cascades into a large grille with a two-bar design. The roof is raked, dramatically impacting available headroom in the second row. The diamond-shaped headlights are capped by an LED bar. The angled accents almost converge on the sides as they reach the rear wheels.
Features
The TLX is well-equipped with impressive features. These may include remote engine start, LED puddle lights, heated front and rear seats, a 10.5-inch heads-up display, a surround-view camera, a wireless charging pad, a premium sound system with 17 speakers, leather upholstery, smart device integration, a navigation system, parking sensors, a 10.2-inch infotainment system screen, AcuraLink and more. The C-Class has a vertically-situated touch display screen, an MBUX infotainment system, smart device integration, and more. Features like a surround-view camera, a navigation system, and a wireless charging pad are optional.
