Meet Roadshow's long-term 2021 Acura TLX Type S

This is the 2021 Acura TLX Type S.

We haven't seen a Type S model from Acura for 13 years, but this TLX is a worthy of the badge.

Under the hood is a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 engine with 355 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. 

This is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission that has been upgraded with stronger internal parts to handle the additional torque.

Pirelli P-Zero summer tires provide plenty of grip.

The fourth-generation Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system can throw more torque to the rear and then distribute that to each wheel. 

Up front a double wishbone suspension system is specially tuned just for the TLX Type S. 

The twin-scroll turbocharger can produce up to 15.1 pounds of boost.

The 2021 Acura TLX Type S starts at $53,325 including $1,025 for destination.
