Acura says “the critical mission of ILX is to bring new buyers into the brand.” But other than the mid-sized TLX, fact is Acura doesn’t sell many traditional cars. However, the 2019 updates applied to the compact ILX should reinvigorate its sales. According to Acura, its combination of sportier styling, new technology and an aggressive reduction in price will strengthen its positon as their gateway sedan in terms of attracting millennial buyers. The Diamond Pentagon grille highlights an all-new front and rear design, the refreshed dual-screen offers more intuitive menus, faster processing and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, the reshaped sport seats are more intricately styled and the latest generation A-Spec treatment gives the raciest ILX model a more distinguished appearance.
