Point the TSX toward any stretch of asphalt and you’ll quickly get a sense of how uniquely in tune it is with both you and the road. It all starts with the body structure. High-tensile steel used in the construction of both the TSX Sedan and Sport Wagon has the dual distinction of increasing the strength of the chassis while also reducing its weight for more nimble response. The race-bred suspension system takes full advantage of the rigid chassis, responding to driver input with minimal body roll. Speed-sensitive steering lets you feel through your fingertips how the wheels are encountering the road. CLICK TO VIEW A MODEL BROCHURE: 1 Among the qualities you’ll find in every Acura engine is the ability to generate power beyond what is expected for its displacement size. The 2.4-liter engine powering the TSX Sedan and Sport Wagon is no exception. By altering the valve movement, it generates peak output throughout the power band. From a standing start, you’ll feel it as low-end torque produces a satisfying rush. At speed, the engine gets its second wind, sending horsepower numbers up past the point where you’d expect them to start falling.

Model Overview 2004 Acura
2004 Acura TSX : Model Overview INTRODUCTION With the new TSX, Acura expands its line-up with a vehicle to complement the popular RSX sports coupe and the 3.2TL luxury performance sedan. The front-wheel drive TSX was engineered and appointed to compete with Europe's best sedans in the sporty luxury segment, which includes models such as the Audi A4 and the BMW 3 Series. The TSX is based on the sophisticated European Honda Accord that was designed to provide the best performance on the challenging European roads. This lineage makes perfect sense for Acura as the European Accord is a high-line, high-performance vehicle that directly competes with the German luxury brands. KEY DEMOGRAPHICS Young. Hip. Technically astute. Raised on Japanese cars. Aspiring to own upscale brands. The target buyer is all of this and much more, but these terms perfectly define the buyers that are attracted to the distinctive styling of the TSX, its advanced engineering and sporting handling. Today's leading automotive designs are sporty and aggressive, and TSX buyers will recognize these cues in the newest Acura sedan immediately. Acura TSX target buyer demographics: o 75 percent male o Median age 35 years o 60 percent married o 75 percent college educated o $110,000 median household income These young and affluent buyers have an emotional attachment to their cars, but require a rational base to support their purchases. The TSX supports both needs with its outstanding handling, strong engine performance, distinctive overall design character, and the world-class quality inherent in all Acura products.

2004 Acura Tsx
Head office: CAA-Québec 444, rue Bouvier Québec (Québec) G2J 1E3 2004 ACURA TSX The new four-door Acura is in reality Honda’s European Accord with high-end equipment and 17-inch wheels. It is powered by a 2.4-litre 4-cylinder engine, with a choice of 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission. The TSX is the same height as the North American Accord but smaller otherwise. Interior and trunk Front access is good and the front seats are very comfortable though the big side supports may make some people feel hemmed in. The tilt, telescoping steering column contributes to the good driving position. In the back, space is tight between the seat cushion and the B-pillar, which makes it harder to get out than to get in. The bench seat is comfortable for two adults and has a 60/40 split seatback that folds to reveal a rather small opening to the trunk. Headroom and legroom are generous even for tall people. You have to watch out for the safety lock plate on the wheel well, which can tear or dirty clothing in a flash. The trunk is quite roomy. It has a flat floor and hooks for a retaining net, but the small trunk opening limits the size of objects you can put inside. Convenience and safety As is common with Honda products, road noise is insufficiently muffled. Fit and finish are almost faultless. There are lots of roomy storage spaces. Instruments and controls are generally well designed, with a few exceptions. The sunroof control is poorly located low and left of the steering wheel, and the steering-wheel-mounted controls and glove box are not lit up at night.

Acura TSX 2009
2009 ACURA TSX Acura is presenting the second generation of the TSX. As so often is the case with a new generation, the TSX is larger in size: 6.6 cm longer and 7.8 cm wider, with increases of 6.5 cm in track width and 3.5 cm in the wheelbase. It is also 59 kg heavier. The TSX sedan is still a front-drive powered by a 2.4-litre 4-cylinder engine that can be mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 5-speed automatic transmission. Interior and trunk The easily accessed cabin is now roomier. New seats hold the occupants more snugly in place with larger side bolsters, and they now have active head restraints. The driving position is very good. Legroom is adequate but the sunroof limits headroom for tall people. The wide doorsills collect grime. Rear entry and exit are difficult because of the narrow door openings. The bench seat is comfortable for two adults only; the middle section is not very accommodating because of the floor tunnel and the shape of the seat. Legroom is adequate but headroom for tall people is very tight. The seatback folds in a 60/40 split but the opening to the trunk is a bit narrow. The seatback folds higher than the trunk floor with a slight forward incline. The average-size trunk is poorly served by a rather narrow opening that limits the size of items that can be stowed inside. The lid opens fairly high. You sometimes have to pull several times on the releases to fold the seatback because they don’t flip the seatback sections forward.
