Acura TL Overview

The Acura TL has taken its place as one of Acura's most popular models since its inception in 1996 as the successor to the Vigor and Legend. During that time, the entry level luxury sedan has undergone 3 major revisions.

In 1996, the TL debuted in 2 trims: the 2.5TL and the 3.2TL. The 2.5TL featured a 2.5 L, 176 hp I5 engine while the 3.2TL offered a stronger 3.2 L, 200 hp V6 powertrain. 1999 marked the elimination of the 2.5TL. In addition, Acura added 25 hp to the 3.2 L V6.

After the second major revision, the new Type S trim added some extra power to lineup in 2002 and if you're looking for something used with 2 doors, the TL coupe sipped an extended cup of coffee from 2001-2003. Finally, in 2004, Acura ratcheted the power up to 270 hp on the 3.2 L V6.

Through it all, the TL has maintained its sense of style with interior and exterior makeovers over the years.
