Acura has unveiled the 2015 ILX, but at the same time it has cut the ILX Hybrid from its lineup. The hybrid variant of the ILX had a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, an electric motor and a 144 volt lithium-ion battery. American Honda executive vice president John Mendel called this engine "underpowered and consumers don't see the value [in it]."
The 2015 Acura ILX will be priced from $27,050 excluding a destination charge of $895.
Yea, because isn't Acura only active in North America? So they are taking it out of the states but keeping it in Canada. There can't be very high sales of it in Canada. I'm surprised its still profitable for them to produce it in such a small quantity for just Canada.

I know that they are also in china, that's a fact, so maybe they could make it available over there?
it could also be the case that they want to launch it in canada first just to see how things go, how well canadians accept it and then start going into the american market with it.
That's a fair point. Canada would work pretty well as a test market for the ILX Hybrid before it heads to the US, but I also know that the two markets cannot be considered identical.
It does seem like there would be demand for luxury sedan hybrids in the US, so I'm not exactly sure why they aren't selling it in the first place though. Maybe it has something to do with the composition of their lineup in the US. Perhaps they would rather have people buy another one of their vehicles instead.
I believe with gas in the US being cheaper it gives people more of a reason to stick to just petrol engine vehicles along with other things too, some of which i don't know.
I bought a 2019 TLX AWD, loaded. At first I thought there was something on the front windshield because I had noticed some tree sap on the paint. So I cleaned it all up and didn't think about it until lately when I've been driving east in the morning and west at night. I found that when the Sun...
...or so all the reviewers say. V6 doesn't shift smoothly. The I4 is underpowered but get that option if you must buy this car. Forget cornering. Back seat is cramped. Inferior materials. Pedestrian styling. Technology is antiquated. It's not reliable. I liked the aluminum beak, turns out! Yeah...
Hey all, just got my 2019 TLX with Tech package. I have been really impressed with the car. I am big into music, and I think the ELS studio has been decent. However there are a few points that are in my head making me wonder if it is better than other systems out there considering different...
So, I've 36,000 miles on this car and its been a pleasure, except for 1 thing....
I've had it in the shop 11 times for a persistent issue with 61-12 Stability/Brake system error. At first it was very bad and a new controller module fixed most of it. Since then the error only occurs with the...
I've been lurking on this site for several years. I'm an Accord owner fascinated with TLX, conceptually anyway, but still concerned with reliability. I'm on other forums and I know you get all the complaints but rarely good reviews. I have test driven a 2018 A-Spec SH-AWD, loved it!
So my...
