NEW
YORK, March 31, 2010 - The all-new 2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon made its
world
debut at the New York International Auto Show today. The TSX Sport Wagon
offers
a smart solution to modern utility needs with its balanced and efficient
driving
performance coupled with bold styling and versatile cargo
capabilities.
"The TSX Sport Wagon represents a smart choice for
those
seeking a vehicle with utility," said John Mendel, executive vice
president,
sales. "It's practical, fun to drive, luxurious and technically
advanced, all
while achieving an outstanding estimated highway fuel economy rating of
30 miles
per gallon ***."
The TSX Sport Wagon delivers flexible utility and
generous
interior space; perfect for those with a growing family or an active
lifestyle.
The TSX Sport Wagon boasts an innovative and highly functional rear
cargo space
that includes a removable side panel to accommodate wider items such as
golf
clubs and integrated under-floor bins for hidden storage. Along with
this
sizeable cargo space, the TSX Sport Wagon features a comfortable and
spacious
cabin with seating for up to five adults.
The
TSX Sport Wagon's practical utility is cleverly masked behind crisp
lines and a
sleek, European-inspired exterior. Bold wheel arches frame the 17-inch,
5-spoke
aluminum wheels, giving Sport Wagon an aggressive stance. The chiseled,
muscular
body and sloping roofline emphasize its performance capabilities while
making it
more aerodynamic.
Powering the TSX Sport Wagon is a 2.4-liter,
all-aluminum DOHC i-VTEC®, inline four-cylinder engine paired with a
Sequential
SportShift 5-speed automatic transmission fit with steering-wheel
mounted paddle
shifters. The TSX Sport Wagon delivers brisk performance while achieving
an
EPA-estimated 30 mpg*** on the highway. Drawing from its sports sedan
roots, the
TSX Sport Wagon features agile handling and quick off the line
acceleration,
allowing it to easily tackle a twisty mountain road or swiftly navigate
through
city streets. To
enhance the driving experience, the TSX Sport Wagon features the latest
in
advanced technologies including an available hard disk drive-based Acura
Navigation System with an all-new 8-inch full VGA high-resolution color
display
and AcuraLink Real-Time Traffic and Weather featuring radar image
mapping. For
the audiophile, the TSX Sport Wagon will be available with an Acura/ELS
Surround® Premium Audio System and a hard disk drive (HDD) for media
storage.
Additionally, the TSX Sport Wagon is equipped with an impressive list of
standard features, including a power glass moonroof, dual-zone automatic
climate
control, leather seats, a premium sound system, Bluetooth®
HandsFreeLink®, and
USB port and AUX jack music interface. Like all Acura vehicles, the TSX
Sport
Wagon will come with a comprehensive list of standard safety features,
including
Acura's acclaimed Advanced Compatibility Engineering? (ACE) body
structure. The 2011
TSX Sport Wagon will be an entry luxury utility
offering when it arrives at Acura dealerships in the late fall. The
Sport Wagon
will join the TSX lineup, which already includes the popular 4-cylinder
and
sporty V-6 powered sports sedans. TSX
