Acura ILX
The ILX received a substantial update last year and it continues to be praised for its build quality and reliability. The only powertrain on the menu is a naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine that produces 201 horsepower through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. There is no bigger engine, manual gearbox or all-wheel drive option. And yet the little Acura will surprise many people with a dynamic driving experience. The A-Spec trim stands out mostly with a sportier appearance.
