Learn the details in the following guide from Bob Howard Acura.
Both sports sedans deliver exhilarating performance that you’ll love on the streets of Shawnee. However, the new TLX offers significantly better standard horsepower and torque.

The TLX and the IS have 5 seats, so you can commute around town with friends or family. If you’re constantly on the go with passengers in the back, you’ll want to make sure they’re comfortable. In the back of the Acura sedan, there is 34.9 inches of legroom, compared to the 32.2 inches in the Lexus model. That said, your rear passengers will be comfortable inside the TLX even during long journeys in Stillwater.
