About the ILX

The ILX is a subcompact 4-door executive sedan that was in production by Honda’s luxury wing Acura from 2012 to 2022. It represented Acura’s first gasoline-electric hybrid model, and the design was based on the ninth generation of the Honda Civic Sedan.

The ILX was first unveiled as a concept car at the 2012 North American International Auto Show, and then as a production model at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show. Acura used the term “aero-fused dynamics” to refer to its unique new design language.

There were 3 engine options used in total, including a 1.5-liter inline-4 for the hybrid model, a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder unit for the early 2013-2014 gasoline options, and a larger 2.4-liter offered throughout the ILX’s lifespan from 2013 to 2022.

The ILX was marketed as an entry-level Acura executive sedan, with its last model year starting price marked at just over $28,000. In price terms, it placed it alongside larger Toyota and Honda sedan cars, but the ILX was more compact, like the Civic Sedan.

There are 4 trim levels available: Base, Premium, Premium A-Spec, and Technology A-Spec. The 2.4-liter powertrain delivers up to 201 hp in power, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and FWD drivetrain. Some criticism was leveled at the ILX for failing to eliminate wind and road noise as much as some competitor models did like the Mercedes-Benz A-Class.

Where the ILX did deliver for many was in fuel economy, achieving up to 24-mpg in the city, and 34-mpg on the highway. The interior was praised for its front-end spaciousness despite the compact build, but the rear end remained something of a squeeze, especially for taller passengers.

An 8-inch infotainment system is available on all models except the base-level trim, and most recommend using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto with it since the digital system is somewhat outdated.
