If you are searching for a dependable sedan in the Clearwater area, consider the 2015 Acura TLX. This refined vehicle offers numerous standard comfort and safety features that go beyond those of the 2015 Lexus IS. From its faster horsepower to its 8-speed automatic transmission, the TLX gives you more value overall. If you need a vehicle with great fuel efficiency, whether you are taking a long drive or on your way to work, then the more affordable 2015 Acura TLX is the best vehicle for you.

Fuel Economy and Performance

The TLX guarantees a smoother ride with its standard 8-speed automatic transmission and faster horsepower. You may even opt for the available 9-speed automatic transmission if you so desire. The TLX provides greater efficiency and quicker gear changes over the 6-speed automatic transmission of the IS. As you drive the TLX, you can expect great gas mileage. The fuel economy of the IS is lower than that of the TLX, so you will have to fill up its tank more often.

Comfort and Convenience

Wouldn't you adore it if your vehicle stored your preferred driving angle and exterior mirror positions in its memory? With the TLX, that's exactly what you'll receive! You will not have the luxury of front power memory seats with the IS, whereas they are standard with the TLX, unless you are willing to spend more for them. In addition to the convenience of front power memory seats, the TLX offers heated front seats to keep you cozy during the colder Clearwater months. This is an optional feature with the IS, so it requires extra costs.

When it is safe (and legal) to do so, the TLX allows you to use the hands-free text messaging function. You won't have to worry about eyeing your mobile phone in traffic- you can easily communicate with Siri to respond to incoming text messages using voice commands on the dashboard-mounted display. The IS is not equipped with this capability, and since staying connected to your loved ones is imperative, this feature is quite practical.

Safety and Security

You'll never have to worry about backing into anything or other obstacles jumping in your way with the rearview camera installed in the TLX. If you don't mind additional costs, you can appreciate the same security device in the IS. The TLX also provides several safety features, such as a collision prevention system, that the IS does not, so you can always drive confidently when you are behind the wheel of the 2015 Acura TLX.
