Other Cars to Consider
The Audi A3 receives one of the highest performance scores in the class for its powerful turbocharged engine and responsive transmissions. It also has an available diesel engine, which is the only one available in the class, and yields fuel economy ratings that are higher than the TSX’s. As a hatchback, the A3 has more cargo space, but like the TSX, its rear seat is cramped. While the A3 has fewer standard features than the TSX, it has a lower starting price.

The Acura TSX comes standard with a four-cylinder engine and a five-speed automatic transmission. A six-speed manual transmission is optional. Reviewers say both transmissions shift smoothly. There’s an optional V6 engine that auto critics prefer because it’s powerful, yet refined and quiet in city environments. The V6 engine only comes with the automatic transmission. With the automatic transmission, the base TSX averages 22/31 mpg city/highway, which is good for the class. Overall, reviewers like the TSX’s firm handling and strong brakes, but they say competitors offer sportier performance. Some test drivers are disappointed with the TSX’s bumpy ride.
The 2013 TSX’s cabin is high-quality, according to reviewers. It also comes with a lot of standard features, including a moonroof, USB port and Bluetooth. A navigation system and stereo upgrade are available. Auto writers say sound quality from the optional stereo is great, but think these optional systems come with far too many buttons on the steering wheel and center stack. Compared with its classmates, the TSX doesn’t have many optional safety features. Lane departure warning and blind-spot monitoring systems, for example, are unavailable. Like many of its competitors, the TSX’s second-row seats are cramped for adults, but the front seats are comfortable, and their positions provide great all-around visibility, according to reviewers. The TSX’s trunk is also one of the roomiest in the class.
