The all-new 2015 Acura TLX has been recognized by Kiplinger's Personal Finance with a 'Best Value Award' from the business and financial organization for 2015. The TLX has been named 'Best New/Redesigned Car' in the $40,000-$50,000 category.

Kiplinger's Best Value Awards are the result of a comprehensive review of hundreds of vehicles that reveal the best values among the newest models. The award winners are selected based on a number of qualifications including price, performance, value, safety, roominess and driving impressions.

"The all-new TLX delivers thrilling performance with impeccable style, an extensive list of luxury features, and of course, value on a luxury scale," said Michael Accavitti, vice president and general manager, Acura Division. "As Acura's sedan line-up continues to strengthen, the marketplace is taking notice, and we are honored to receive this recognition from Kiplinger's."

In addition to being named a 'Best Value' by Kiplinger's Personal Finance, the all-new 2015 Acura TLX recently earned the TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The 2015 Acura TLX is the first Acura model to be equipped with AcuraWatch™, a comprehensive suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies with leading-edge road-sensing and collision-mitigation capabilities, including pedestrian sensing.

Since the arrival of the TLX to dealerships in August 2014, the TLX has quickly become one of Acura's best-selling models. Designed to deliver a unique and compelling blend of sports-sedan dynamic proportion, premium luxury refinement and super-handling performance, the TLX is appealing to a broad cross-section of luxury customers with three all-new powertrains and advanced chassis technologies that respond intelligently to the will of the driver. The TLX lineup features three distinct model offerings that deliver new levels of quietness and ride comfort for a luxurious driving experience.
