2011 TSW Wagon

2011 TSX Wagon

The 2011 Acura TSX Wagon has it all-performance, style, technology, and utility! The 2011 TSX should serve the performance enthusiast, techy, greeny,  and utilitarian just fine! Based off of the European Tourer, the 2011 Acura TSX Wagon will be available at local Atlanta Acura dealerships in late fall. Feel free to visit  www.acuracarland.com to get more information.

Weighing in at an expected 201 HP, the TSX wagon will be able to accelerate through local Atlanta trouble spots! Acura.com  expects around 30 MPG, which all but guarantees a 2.4 liter 4cyl model. We have not received any word on whether the V6 will be an option. The signature sport tuned suspension is a given. Acura’s suspensions will optimize the handling characteristics during various driving conditions. Make no mistake, Acura’s TSX wagon will provide highly spirited performance.

Acura techies do not have to worry. Tech Package will be available! The Hard Disk Drive will be available coupled with the 10 speaker ELS surround sound. The navigation will include the “Traffic Rerouting” and weather reports  to help avoid the untimely delays. Zagat ratings will also help reduce the occurrence of visiting that “Tourist Trap” type restaurant during vacation. Not to mention, the fully integrated iPod and USB audio interface will allow you take full advantage of your digital music library. Bluetooth with the phone-book exchange will also be standard.

If the acclaimed Acura Gadgetry is not enough, how about a lot of style. For those drivers that feel the mini-van is a quantum leap away from their psycho-graphics. The wagon lover craze is reborn. The Acura TSX wagon is sleek and elegant. Premium leather and interior refinement will soothe the occupants as soon as they close the TSX’s doors. The dash cluster is purposeful and appealing. The ergonomics of the controls are intuitive and precise.   

Utility is a major factor to SUVs, Crossovers, Minivans, and wagons. Storage for everyone! The TSX has a very wide lift-gate opening. The cargo area has a flat floor and is very spacious. The Seating functionality will allow you to fold seats to gain more interior cargo room. Often enough, you will need to have more than one passenger. The TSX wagon has a 60/40 fold down seat, that will allow you to improve cargo room, and allow you to hold 2-3 passengers. Tie downs a skid tracks will help you secure your cargo, and minimize the chance of damaging the interior. Wrap around quality carpeting with minimized plastic panels will also help reduce cargo damage and those unsightly cargo scratches.  So, if you are considering a SUV, mini-van, Crossover, or wagon, please be sure to evaluate the 2011 TSX Wagon. Performance, Style, Technology, and Utility are 4 good reasons to visit Acura Carland, in Duluth, GA.

2010 Acura ZDX – Official Photos and Info

This X6-fighter will vie for a slice of a still-undefined niche.

A few weeks after Acura released a series of teaser images, Acura officially pulled the wraps off the concept version of the ZDX crossover at the 2009 New York International Auto Show. Interestingly, the previously released teaser shots actually show early production lighting elements, rather than those found on the NYIAS concept, but we’re told that, other than the lights, there are few changes between the concept and the ZDX that will roll into Acura showrooms this fall as a 2010 model.

Designed by 28-year-old Michelle Christensen (who was only 25 when she penned the first version of the vehicle), the five-passenger ZDX is based on the MDX platform and will be positioned above that seven-seater as a flagship within Acura’s lineup. Although Acura claims that the ZDX will introduce “an entirely new category of luxury vehicle,” no one will be able to help comparing it to that other four-door coupe crossover thingy, the BMW X6, although the ZDX’s ride height is markedly lower. Still, like the X6, it is none too dainty at 192.6 inches long, a vast 78.5 inches wide, and 61.8 inches tall. There are 108.5 inches between the centerlines of the 19-inch wheels, which are shod with 275/40-series Michelin Latitude tires.

Acura confirms that it will be powered by the same 300-hp, 3.7-liter V-6 that powers the MDX. The six will be mated to an all-new six-speed automatic with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. It will, of course, come standard with Acura’s nifty Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system.

The interior of every ZDX will feature leather seating surfaces, and occupants will get plenty of light from above via the standard full-length glass roof. For lane changes—which undoubtedly will be hampered by those huge C-pillars—the ZDX will offer a blind-spot information system, as well as a multi-angle rear-view camera, surround-sound audio, navigation and, we imagine, a whole lot more if it is to, as Acura claims, achieve “a whole new level of prestige” for the brand. Customers will be able to see for themselves when the ZDX goes on sale this winter.
