2021 Acura TLX vs. TLX Type S

The 2021 Acura TLX Type S is simply an offered trim level, or variation, of the 2021 Acura TLX. The 2021 Acura TLX Type S is the high-performance variant of the TLX, and it certainly shows through its exceptional performance and sporty design.

2021 Acura TLX Type S Features

Arriving spring 2021, the TLX Type S builds upon the A-Spec styling elements, elevating TLX's sporty appearance even further. At the front, a unique open-surface Diamond Pentagon grille and larger side air intakes feed an all-new powerful V6 turbo engine developed for Acura Type S models. Aerodynamic elements include a rear decklid spoiler, aggressive front splitter and rear diffuser, and large quad exhaust outlets.

Two exclusive 20-inch wheels designs will be offered, a split-10 spoke design from the Type S Concept, and an NSX-inspired lightweight "Y-Spoke" wheel, both wrapped in 255-series performance rubber. While that’s all we know for now, more details on the TLX Type S will be released closer to its on-sale date in the Spring of 2021.
