Acura is the premium sub-brand of Japanese automaker Honda, established in the United States in 1986. The name Acura derives from the Latin word 'Accuracy', with its logo featuring a caliper used in engineering measurements, reflecting the brand's exquisite craftsmanship and pursuit of perfection. Acura officially unveiled the new ILX model at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show. Below are more details about the new Acura ILX: 1. The new vehicle adopts Acura's latest design language, featuring a striking pentagonal diamond grille and LED headlights with the Jewel-Eye system that excel in both illumination and aesthetics. The fog light area below is the most significant change compared to the previous model. The side and rear of the vehicle remain largely unchanged, except for the updated 17-inch blackened alloy wheels, LED taillights, and single exhaust outlet. 2. Notably, the new model introduces an A-Spec variant, which features more dark chrome accents on the front grille, blackened fog lights, headlights, and taillights, complemented by a glossy black spoiler and 18-inch alloy wheels. The A-Spec interior includes exclusive elements such as a graphite silver instrument panel, a stitched steering wheel, A-Spec badges, aluminum sport pedals, and red leather seats. 3. The new ILX retains the current 2.4L engine, delivering 150kW (203PS) and 244N·m of torque, paired with an 8-speed DCT transmission.
