Reviewers say the 2014 Acura TSX offers a comfortable ride, dynamic handling and two powerful engine options.
The base 2014 TSX has a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that makes 201 horsepower. It comes standard with a five-speed automatic transmission, and a six-speed manual is available. The four-cylinder TSX gets up to an EPA-estimated 22/31 mpg city/highway, which is good for the class. A 3.5-liter V6 engine is optional. It makes 280 horsepower and comes with a five-speed automatic transmission.
Many test drivers think the four-cylinder engine is lively and provides decent acceleration, though a few would rather have the V6, which they say feels much more powerful and refined. Some reviewers note that the manual transmission is fun to use thanks to an easy-to-engage clutch and a slick shifter.
A few reviewers note that the 2014 TSX has a firm suspension, but they say that it contributes to the TSX’s athletic handling without compromising its comfortable ride. Critics say the brakes are strong and steering feel is excellent whether you’re maneuvering into a parking spot or taking a gentle curve at 70 mph. However, some write that some German rivals offer more responsive steering.
