Designed and engineered to reaffirm its place as a desirable and affordable entry point for entry-premium buyers, the all-new second-generation 2009 Acura TSX is larger, more agile, and more performance minded. The new TSX has evolved to offer more comfort, convenience, driving performance and safety. It does so with expanded luxury and electronic features, a wider stance for more agile performance, and advanced safety systems.
The 2009 TSX is expected to appeal to current TSX owners, young professionals and other image seekers who will appreciate its innovative styling, technical allure and total performance.
An all-aluminum DOHC i-VTEC, 2.4-liter, 201 hp, in-line 4-cylinder engine brings a pair of firsts for the TSX model, including dual balance shafts and a direct ignition system. Along with improved performance, it’s cleaner, meeting the EPA’s aggressive Tier 2-Bin 5 and CARB LEV II Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (ULEV) standards for the first time.
Two transmissions are available, both as standard equipment — a 6-speed close ratio manual and a Sequential SportShift 5-speed automatic with a new lock-up torque converter assembly that permits fully automatic operation. The automatic transmission can also be operated manually via new steering-wheel mounted F1®-style paddle shifters.
Featuring a blend of sweeping, contemporary shapes, a high level of standard comfort and convenience features, widespread use of premium materials and an available Technology Package, this 5-passenger sports sedan offers the upscale modern interior that customers have come to expect from Acura. The TSX offers an exceptional level of standard equipment. Included a standard power passenger seat, a new folding key with remote entry, new automatic headlight activation, a premium 7-speaker sound system with CD, AM/FM/XM®, Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®, and USB port music interface, as well as the HomeLink® remote control system.
The 2009 Acura TSX is covered by a comprehensive 4-year/50,000 mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty and a 6-year/70,000 mile powertrain limited warranty.
