All-New 2009 TSX Makes World Debut at the New York International Auto Show

NEW YORK, U.S.A., March 19, 2008–Acura provided a one-two punch with
the world debut of the all-new second-generation TSX sports sedan along
with the appearance of the redesigned RL luxury performance sedan at
the New York International Auto Show. With new engines, refined
drivetrain, and Acura’s latest Keen Edge Dynamic styling, the all-new
TSX and RL highlight a new direction for Acura sedans.
“With powerful looks and performance, the debut of the new TSX has
taken an enthusiastic bite out of the Big Apple,” said Dick Colliver,
executive vice president of sales. “Besides offering enhanced
performance, the 2009 TSX has improved fuel economy, lower emissions,
added safety features, and more technology than ever before.”

Producing 201 hp from a 2.4-liter engine, the DOHC VTEC® in-line
4-cylinder now delivers its power across a much wider rpm range. Along
with more torque, the new 2.4L is also cleaner as it meets EPA TIER
2–BIN 5 and CARB LEV II Ultra Low Emission Vehicle standards.

Merging crisp, dynamic design with a bold new signature Acura grille,
the 2009 TSX is more distinctive and sporty. Due to its greater length
and width, wider track, and longer wheelbase, the new TSX provides
additional interior room while new fully independent front and rear
suspension with dual-stage dampers provides more agile handling.

The TSX is equipped with an impressive list of standard equipment which
includes a power glass moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control,
leather seats, power windows/mirrors/locks, a premium 7-speaker sound
system (with CD, AM/FM and XM® Radio), Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®, and
USB port and AUX jack music interface.

The available Technology Package features leading-edge electronics
including the AcuraLink® Satellite Communication System, Acura
Navigation System with Voice Recognition™, AcuraLink® Real-time
traffic, Traffic Rerouting™ and AcuraLink® weather. Included in the
Technology Package is an audiophiles dream in the form of a 415 watt,
10-speaker Acura/ELS™ Premium Surround Sound System with DVD-Audio
designed by Grammy® Award winning producer/engineer Elliot Scheiner.

Designed with an emphasis on safety, the 2009 TSX now makes use of
Acura’s esteemed Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body
structure. The 2009 TSX, with ACE™ and a host of other safety features,
is expected to achieve the highest ratings in both governmental
(NHTSA)* and independent (IIHS) crash testing – including IIHS’s TOP
SAFETY PICK.

Also making its first appearance in New York is Acura’s new 2009 RL
luxury sedan which features bold new styling, an all-new 3.7-liter
engine, chassis enhancements and numerous technological upgrades.
Performance improves with the 2009 RL thanks to a new 300 horsepower
V-6 that incorporates the first ever SOHC use of VTEC® valvetrain
actuation for both the intake and exhaust valves. The top-of-the-line
Acura furthers cutting edge technology with the addition of new
high-tech items including AcuraLink® weather, AcuraLink®Traffic
Rerouting™, a new Note function for XM® Radio, Active Sound Control,
and Bluetooth® Audio to an already robust list of features found on the
previous RL. To enhance handling, new chassis technology abounds in the
form of enhanced Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™, a revised steering
system, firmer coil springs, better performing shock absorbers, larger
rear stabilizer bar, and larger wheels and tires.

Acura offers a full line of technologically advanced performance luxury
vehicles through a network of 268 dealers within the United States. The
Acura lineup features five distinctive models including the RL luxury
performance sedan, the TL performance luxury sedan, the TSX sports
sedan, the turbocharged RDX luxury crossover SUV and the award-winning
MDX luxury sport utility vehicle. For additional information about
