Check out the new 2011 Acura TL in Chicagoland at Ed Napleton Acura in Elmhurst, IL!
Say goodbye to "the beak." The Acura TL has a fresh new look for 2012, offering more performance and more luxury, and you can see it for yourself in Chicagoland at Ed Napleton Acura in Elmhurst, IL!
ACURA TL PERFORMANCE
The choice of two potent engines gives you two ways to generate pulse-quickening power. Both the 280-hp, 3.5-liter and the TL SH-AWD's 305-hp, 3.7-liter engine utilize Acura's signature VTEC technology for uninterrupted power throughout the rpm range. A new 6-speed automatic transmission gives the TL not only quicker acceleration, but also improved fuel efficiency. The 3.7-liter engine features machined aluminum/silicon cylinder liners for increased strength and heat transfer. Mechanical etching inside the cylinders exposes the silicon crystals, helping reduce friction for better performance. The TL SH-AWD also offers driving enthusiasts an available close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission that lets you keep the shift points exactly where you want them. One of the thrills of driving a high-performance sport sedan is exploring the vehicle's potential. The TL's speed-sensitive steering and sport-tuned suspension give you a lot of room for fun. The TL SH-AWD extends the performance parameters even further with the addition of Acura's exclusive Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®). Accelerate through a curve and SH-AWD can send up to 100% of available rear-wheel power to the outside wheel and then turn that wheel slightly faster, dramatically improving the vehicle's turning force to help the TL and its driver achieve a higher level of control. | |

ACURA EXTERIOR
Its newly sculpted lines evoke a sense of anticipation. Its more sharply honed performance reinforces the bond between driver and vehicle. The 2012 Acura TL is proof that power can be thoroughly refined, yet still retain every bit of its capacity to thrill. With its taut, finely tailored silhouette and more aggressive details like the darkened headlights and bold wheel design, every element speaks to the power and precision of the TL. Among the design influences for the TL's revised exterior was the look and feel of a high-end watch. As with a fine timepiece, the closer you look at the TL, the more intricately textured and detailed different elements become. From the use of gloss-black details to the matte-black mesh that calls to mind the aggressiveness of past TL designs, everything works together. It is this level of detail that makes the TL more intriguing and, ultimately, that much more special to its owner. | |

ACURA INTERIOR
Inside the TL, you'll find that refinement was anything but an afterthought. The spacious cabin invites you in with expertly crafted details, rich leather and front seats that offer multiple levels of heating as well as available ventilation. With the available Technology Package, the seats are trimmed in glove-soft full-grain Perforated Milano Premium Leather. The TL also anticipates your needs with memory-adjust seats, mirrors, and climate and audio settings. It all contributes to an environment that is at the same time relaxing and invigorating.Despite the supreme comfort afforded by the TL cabin, this is not luxury for luxury's sake, but for the sake of the driver. From the design and placement of every control, to the improved sound insulation and available GPS-linked climate control, the goal was to create an environment free of distraction and discomfort, so you can concentrate more on the task at hand. In the TL, technology is designed to work intuitively and elegantly. Many of the systems recognize your intimate needs and react, even where there is no contact. This includes the available voice-activated navigation system, complete with Zagat Survey® restaurant reviews as well as available XM NavTraffic® and NavWeather™ information. Voice recognition can also be used with the available Acura/ELS Surround® Premium Audio System. The available Advance Package even includes Song By Voice® technology that lets you verbally call up music stored on your connected iPod®2 or the vehicle's built- in hard drive. It's all part of the philosophy that the most powerful technology is the most easy to use. | |

ACURA TL SAFETY FEATURES
Luxury features are by no means the only technologies designed to help keep life's harsher elements at bay. The Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE®) body structure can help distribute frontal crash energy more evenly, helping reduce the forces transferred to the passenger cabin. Safety systems designed to help keep collisions from happening in the first place include Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®), which can detect a loss of traction and take appropriate action to help keep you in control. Other standard 2012 Acura TL standard safety features include a four-wheel anti-lock braking system with Electronic Brake Distribution and Brake Assist; dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags, front side airbags and side curtain airbags; and active front head restraints.
