The 2010 Acura TSX receives an available V6 engine. This front-wheel drive sedan is Acura's entry-level car, and TSX shares some of its basic design with the European-market Honda Accord. The standard engine remains a 201-hp 2.4-liter 4-cylinder. A 280-hp 3.5-liter V6, borrowed from the larger Acura TL, is newly available. The 4-cylinder is available with manual or automatic transmission. The V6 is automatic only. The 2010 Acura TSX comes in a single trim level that includes standard features such as a sunroof, wireless cell-phone link, leather upholstery, USB port, heated front seats, and automatic climate control. The V6 model rides on 18-inch wheels, while the 4-cylinder gets 17s. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. An optional Technology Package for both the 4-cylinder and V6 is available, and versions so equipped are priced as separate models. The package includes a voice-activated navigation system with real-time traffic and weather information, dual-zone climate control, a rearview camera, and 10-speaker, 415-watt surround-sound audio system.
