The Acura TLX Is the Latest Midsize Sedan to Get the Axe
By now, car enthusiasts are used to a numbing drumbeat of announcements that this or that automaker is discontinuing a long-running car model, often citing the market's inexorable shift toward SUVs as the primary reason why. Acura is joining the chorus with its cancellation of the midsize TLX sedan after this year. The luxury brand says sales have slowed to a trickle, which is attributed in large part to the fact that, you guessed it, customers are simply more interested in Acura's crossovers and SUVs. Acura is discontinuing the TLX midsize sedan due to declining sales as customers prefer SUVs. The TLX, introduced in 2015, replaced the TL and saw peak sales in 2015. Acura will continue with other models like the Integra, which comprises 40% of its entry-luxury sales. This summary was generated by AI using content from this MotorTrend article Read Next The TLX, as you'll recall, enjoys a rich lineage stretching back to Acura's TL sedan—itself a successor of sorts to the original Acura Legend. The TL first appeared in 1995 as a biggish front-wheel-drive midsize premium alternative to the Honda Accord; the TL's second generation grew sleeker and sportier (even gaining a Type S variant); next up was the surprisingly Italianate third-gen model that resembled (if this makes any sense today) an Alfa Romeo as designed by Honda. Finally, the TL line died with the brutalist fourth-gen model, which was the first to introduce Acura's Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) to the TL family—you could even buy a TL with SH-AWD and a six-speed manual transmission. Acura then replaced the TL with the TLX. Wearing a mashup of past TL styling cues, the TLX was sporty, if not as much so as past models. You could get SH-AWD again, but only with the heavier six-cylinder model; four-cylinder versions were somewhat more fun to drive, and included an acronym of their own: P-AWS (Precision All-Wheel Steer), a clever rear-wheel steering system that could tighten the lively TLX's line. That first TLX lasted from 2015 to 2020 and was replaced by the TLX you know today for the 2021 model year. Acura went with a sportier vibe yet again, combining available SH-AWD with a new Type S variant powered by a 355-hp twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 engine. Despite its dramatic look and decent performance, the second-generation TLX and torch-carrier for the TL lineage saw continued sales declines. Figures provided by Acura show that the TL's annual sales peaked in 2005 at 78,218 before falling off steeply through 2014, the year it was replaced by the TLX. Sales of the TLX peaked one year later, far sooner than the TL's (that model went on sale in 1995 and took a decade to reach its best year). Sales then steadily slumped through 2024, when TLX sales totaled a mere 7,478 units. Acura says production of the TLX will stop later this month. Still, as Acura points out, it sold over 1.2 million TLs and TLXes over their 30-year run. And though the TLX is unapologetically being killed off because of poor sales due to those pesky SUVs, Acura isn't dropping cars entirely like some brands. The smaller Integra is selling strongly, apparently making up 40 percent of all sales in the entry-luxury space, and it offers a six-speed manual transmission and a hotter Type S variant based on the Honda Civic Type R. And who knows? Maybe the NSX supercar will see a successor?

Acura TLX Is The Latest Sporty Sedan To Bite The Dust
By signing up I agree to the Terms of Use and acknowledge that I have read the Privacy Policy . You may unsubscribe from email communication at anytime. Lexus will be the last Japanese luxury marque still selling traditional sedans in the U.S. Yet another sedan has been the victim of an SUV- and truck-obsessed world, and this one was rather good. Acura has confirmed that production of the TLX will end this month, with the brand saying the decision was made to 'better align with the evolving needs of our customers and the changing landscape of the automotive industry.' Previous Pause Next Unmute 0:00 / 0:10 Full screen Automakers brace for uncertain future amid Trump's tariff pause Watch More With the departure of the TLX, the sedan's 2025 model year will be its last, and it will leave the recently refreshed Integra as the only Acura model that isn't an SUV of some kind. Low TLX Sales Made Acura's Decision Easier 2024 Acura TLX Type-S 2024 Acura TLX Type-S 2024 Acura TLX Type S interior For the first half of 2025, Acura sold 3,634 TLXs, making it the brand's slowest-selling model overall. That's down from 4,211 units sold over the same period last year. Even the ZDX, Acura's fully electric SUV with a high starting price of over $60,000, has been out-selling the TLX. The TLX took over the role as Acura's flagship sedan after the larger RLX was discontinued after the 2020 model year. Last year, Infiniti discontinued the Q50 to become an SUV-only brand, and if it were not for the sporty Integra, Acura would be in the same position. When the three major Japanese automakers (Toyota, Honda, and Nissan) launched their luxury arms in the late 1980s (Lexus, Acura, and Infiniti), they all found success with comfortable, larger sedans. Around 40 years later, only Lexus has been able to weather the SUV storm, as it still offers multiple sedan models.

If you can still get one, it's worth considering, be it the base 272-horsepower model or the potent Type S with its 355-hp V6. The V6 gets the brand's Super-Handling AWD system as standard, creating a proper sports sedan with feelsome steering and excellent composure on twisty roads. The TLX also looks the part from behind the wheel; its unique dashboard design is perhaps a bit fussy, but it has more personality than the screen-obsessed look of so many other new cars. 'Across three generations, Type S variants of the TL and TLX have elevated the Acura performance image and created a lasting impact in the enthusiast market,' said the brand in a statement. The TLX is another fallen sedan in a long list that will be missed. About the Author Karl Furlong View Profile
