2011 Acura TSX Official Photos and Info - Auto Shows - Car and Driver
The favorite Acura of enthusiasts, the TSX , gets a very minor face lift for 2011, including a few mechanical enhancements to help fuel economy plus a Sport Wagon variation that will arrive in early 2011. A new front fascia breaks up the lower... Acura says the reshaped chin spoiler and new underbody aero panels aid slipperiness. Engineers attacked friction in the engines and managed to eke out a 1-mpg improvement from both the 2. 4-liter four and 3. 5-liter V-6 in both the city and highway cycles. The five-speed automatic’s shift mapping has been updated for better economy, as well, and that transmission also gets a fluid warmer to improve cold-weather shift quality and longevity. The fuel-economy figures now look like this: 22/31 for the 2. 4 automatic and 21/29 for the 2. 4 with the six-speed manual, and 19/28 for the auto-only 3. 5-liter. In early 2011, the TSX Sport Wagon arrives with just one powertrain option: the 2. 4-liter four and five-speed automatic, with a 30-mpg highway rating. The six-speed manual may become available later, but not at launch, says Acura. Source: www.caranddriver.com
