ACURA

Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition...Acura presented this week in the United States, a new exclusive item for the TLX Type S PMC Edition model, the Gotham gray color. The car will be released next April and will have only 50 copies.

The exclusive paintwork with a matte metallic finish was previously offered only by the NSX Type S version, the only brand so far with this more sinister appearance. In this way, the models with this new color will be produced for the North American market, where they will arrive with the price starting at 63,995 dollars.

The Acura TLX Type S trim will include Berlina Black paint on the door handles, among other areas of the car. In addition, the TLX will feature 20-inch NSX-inspired Y-spoke wheels with Pirelli tires, a glossy carbon fiber rear spoiler and diffuser, and a choice of four chrome finishes, as well as TLX, Type S and SH-AWD badging.

In contrast to the more aggressive external look, the interior will feature a carbon fiber finish, illuminated side sills and premium floor mats with version emblems, in addition to colored trim. According to Acura, the seats will be upholstered in Red Milano leather and on the lower console there will be a badge with the signature of the limited edition of the model.

Under the hood the Acura TLX Type S hides the 3.0 turbo V6 engine, capable of producing 355 hp of power and 480 Nm of torque, in addition to 24 DOHC valves. The engine is mated to a 10-speed SH-AWD automatic transmission.

Among the safety items of the TLX, the following stand out: collision alert system, lane departure warning system, adaptive cruise control, traffic sign recognition, congestion assistant, blind spot alert, pedestrian detection, automatic headlight and front and rear parking sensors.
