I was talking to a local sales manager today as I was considering a new RDX to replace my TLX and lamenting Acura not wanting to make hybrids. He told me that had a meeting this week about the future vehicles and were told they are still 'all-in' on bringing EVs and ICEs with no plans for the hybrid and even the new ADX may be an EV. He said the TLX was being phased out and the Integra was going to be the only sedan in the lineup.

As always, take it with a grain of salt...but thought I would share...

Still waiting for that DC5 RSX Type R that a sales manager promised me was confirmed for 2003.

Dealer's don't be knowing anything pretty much

i am not saying he is wrong but never trust dealers. We know more than them. My salesman works for Acura for more than 2 decades and he is very well informed. When I asked him last time about ADX. His answer was: "I have no clue, all i know is it will be a smaller SUV than RDX".

I would not be surprised if the TLX as we know it dies. The current version just doesn't make business sense given that the total units sold (since Acura is NA only) is relatively tiny. Of course, they could opt to keep the TLX name and either use it for an EV, or return it to its roots and base it heavily off of the Accord to reduce costs. The latter would make more sense, which means it probably won't happen.
