Car and Driver recently ranked entry-level luxury sedans, among them the TLX. Out of the 12 sedans ranked, the TLX came in at number 7 -- not bad. Below I have quoted what Car and Driver says about the TLX and I have also posted the full ranked list.
1. 2014 BMW 3-SeriesAcura likes to tout high-tech systems as the main selling points of its models, and the TLX is no exception; it offers four-wheel steering and torque-vectoring all-wheel drive to enhance its agility. The base powertrain is a 206-hp 2.4-liter four with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic or a 290-hp 3.5-liter V-6 with a nine-speed automatic. The TLX has LED exterior lights and electronic driving assistants including AcuraLink, road-departure mitigation, and collision-mitigation braking. As an aside, one element of that inventory that could use a major overhaul is the center dash infotainment array, which may be the most bewildering system since the original BMW iDrive due to its multiple screens and myriad buttons. The TLX falls a bit short dynamically versus the leaders in the segment, but it does offer good value.
