The 2020 Acura ILX compact sports sedan gives other cars in this class a run for their money. With a powerful drivetrain, impressive handling, innovative technology, and available package options, the ILX is an appealing car for those looking for a sleek, high-performance sports sedan. Here are four features that help make the 2020 ILX so enticing!
Powerful Drivetrain
You’ll enjoy the exhilaration that the 2.4-liter four-cylinder, 201-horsepower engine delivers. Combined with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and 180 pound-feet of torque, the drivetrain gives plenty of power and gusto when you need to accelerate quickly. The front-wheel-drive has plenty of traction and stability, and the car handles well when going into curves or along winding roads. EPA estimates for the ILX’s gas mileage are 24 mpg when driving in the city and 34 mpg when driving on the highway.
Sporty Interior
There are plenty of sophisticated features that come standard in the ILX. The front heated sports seats with leatherette trim hold the driver and passenger securely in their seats, and the driver has an eight-way power-adjustable seat with lumbar support. The two rows of seats hold five people, and there are 12.4 cubic feet of cargo space in the trunk.
Other standard features include a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, a moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, and push-button start. The infotainment system features a 5-inch color touch screen, a USB port, a 12-volt power outlet, Bluetooth, a six-speaker audio system, and Siri Eyes Free.
Package Options
The Premium Package builds upon the standard features and includes perforated Milano leather seats, memory settings for the driver’s seat and side mirrors, and a four-way power-adjustable front passenger seat with lumbar support. Also included in the Premium Package are an automatic-dimming rearview mirror, premium audio system with seven-speakers, SiriusXM satellite radio, HD radio, as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. The infotainment display screen increases in size to an 8-inch LED-backlit video graphics array.
The Technology Package builds even further from the standard features and Premium Package by adding a GPS-linked climate control system that automatically adjusts the interior temperature according to the sun’s intensity, the Acura/ELS Studio premium audio system with 10-speakers, and a multi-information display with turn-by-turn guidance. The AcuraLink connected services allow you to connect with your ILX through your smartphone.
The A-Spec Package pairs with the Technology Package to add a leather-wrapped steering wheel with the A-Spec insignia, graphite and chrome dash trim, red instrument illumination panel, a black headliner, and stainless steel sports pedals.
