Acura ILX
Acura’s entry-level model is back, and better than ever. The ILX successfully replaces the CSX (formerly the EL), as this time it’s markedly different from the Honda Civic. Offered in Canada and the U.S., this sedan comes with a selection of drivetrains (gas or hybrid) as well as your choice of three transmissions (manual, automatic or CVT). With a price range that is in line with most other luxury compact sedans, this Acura is targeting a young, educated clientele.
