When shopping for a new Acura, the question often arises, “Should I buy or lease?” Consider factors such as monthly budget allowance, vehicle usage, and upfront and turn-in costs before you decide. Let’s break it down.

Even at the base-level Standard, you’ll find eye-catching features like 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, a power moonroof with tilt/slide feature, and a gloss-black tailgate spoiler.
The Technology package opts for pewter gray metallic machine-finished split five-spoke wheels, while the all-new A-Spec makes a stunning debut with 20-inch shark gray wheels, LED fog lights, and trim-exclusive bumpers.
