2010 Acura TSX Trims and Specs

The Acura TSX Base trim rolls into 2010 essentially unchanged. For power, it retains its 2.4-liter, double-overhead-cam, i-VTEC inline four-cylinder engine, which carries over from the previous year. The four-cylinder delivers 201 hp and 172 lb-ft of torque, and powers the front-wheel-drive sedan through a five-speed Sequential SportShift automatic transmission with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, which enable drivers to shift manually. The Acura TSX Base comes standard with such performance- and safety-oriented features as traction and stability control, as well as antilock brakes with brake assist and electronic brakeforce distribution, which help drivers maintain control of the vehicle in slippery road conditions or when making emergency maneuvers.

Inside, the five-passenger TSX Base comes equipped with a wide range of upscale features, including perforated-leather seats, heated and power-adjustable front sport seats, a leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel, a power moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, and remote keyless entry. Bluetooth wireless connectivity, a multi-information display, and a dash-mounted electronic compass also come standard. The 360-watt, seven-speaker audio system includes a 6-CD player, XM satellite radio, and an MP3 input jack. Outside, Xenon high-intensity headlights, foglights, and a front chin spoiler are among the standard features. The TSX sits on 17-inch wheels with high-performance all-season tires.

Equipped with the popular Technology Package, the 2010 Acura Base luxury sedan includes such high-tech gadgets as a navigation system with an 8-inch screen and a DVD-based database. The system provides drivers with real-time traffic and weather information, which is continuously updated, as well as Zagat Surveys restaurant reviews. It also includes voice recognition capabilities. The TSX Base trim with the Technology Package also includes a rearview camera, a GPS-linked and solar-sensing climate control system, and a 415-watt, 10-speaker premium audio system with a 6-CD changer, a USB interface, iPod integration, XM satellite radio, and an MP3 input jack. It also features an 8-inch subwoofer. The navigation screen displays detailed audio information. Perforated-leather seats, heated and power-adjustable front sport seats, a power moonroof, Bluetooth wireless technology, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio and cruise controls are among the TSX Base's other standard features.
