July 29 2021,
The 2022 Lexus IS offers the best balance between reliability, luxury and performance in one of the most well-assembled luxury cars out there. Lexus has always taken car of its customers when it comes to building reliable cars that last, but the automaker pushes things even further by creating a unique experience that no other manufacturer can copy.
Here we compare the 2022 Lexus IS with the 2022 Acura TLX.
The 2022 Lexus IS is an exhibit of expert craftsmanship, inside and outside
The Lexus IS’s style is unique in the segment. It encompasses the best styling features blended with the latest tech in terms of lighting and aerodynamics. Inside, the cabin is carefully crafted using the best in terms of materials and textures. While the TLX uses budget-oriented plastic surfaces and seating inspired by Honda’s compact cars, the Lexus IS provides a unique setting for its owner, paving the way to an exhilarating drive, no matter the destination.
The 2022 Lexus IS provides reliable and efficient performance
The Lexus IS offers tried and true drivetrains that perform and last, but they are also very efficient. The base IS is powered by a four-cylinder, 2.0-litre turbocharged engine that develops 241 horsepower, and is mated to a quick-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission. While the TLX may offer a marginal hp gain, the Lexus IS’s engine is much more reliable. It is also more efficient, with a fuel consumption of 11.0 L/100 km in the city and 7.6 L/100 km on the highway, it consumes less fuel than the base TLX, which uses 11.2 L/100 km in the city and 8.0 L/100 km on the highway.
The TLX also has a “performance” model, which is the Type S. It uses a 3.0-litre V6 to produce 355 horsepower. While this might be enough for some drivers, the Lexus IS takes the lead in the comparison and offers more with the new Lexus IS 500 F SPORT. Powered by a 5.0-litre V8 which outputs an impressive 472 horsepower, the Lexus IS 500 F SPORT provides a blend of raw V8 torque, sound and experience that the TLX will never be able to provide.
