2013 Acura ILX Now Available at San Diego Acura Dealers

    SAN DIEGO, CA, June 16, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The ILX is an all-new compact luxury sedan that features three powertrain options, including Acura's first ever gasoline electric hybrid. The other two options you can choose from is a 201 hp four with a six-speed manual transmission or a 150 hp four-cylinder model tied to a five-speed automatic transmission. Its starting MSRP is at $25,900 and has a laundry list of premium luxury features, making it highly desired by a younger audience who don't want to sacrifice quality when buying their new car. In fact, the slogan that Acura is using for the new ILX is "Move up. Without settling down."

Marketers from Acura say that the I stands for "intelligent". Acura engineers, however, say that the I stands for inomama, a Japanese word for intuitive handling that roughly translates to "it does what we expect it to" for a sports sedan. Whatever it stands for, one thing is clear: the new ILX was not designed to disappoint. For those who are driving enthusiasts, the 2.4 liter four-cylinder with the six-speed manual gearbox is the best choice. With its grippy handling, well-balanced chassis, high-revving engine, and wide torque, the ILX was made for single-gear driving.
