Acura continues to advance its reputation as a safety leader and innovator with the 2015 TLX receiving a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score, the top available rating in the U.S. government's New Car Assessment Program (NCAP), including 5-stars in all six vehicle test modes.
The performance luxury sedan has become one of Acura’s best-selling vehicles and is one of only three 2015 model vehicles in the midsize luxury/near luxury category to earn both the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick+ rating and the NHTSA 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score.
"The TLX exemplifies how advanced safety performance is an inherent part of how Acura delivers luxury," said Michael Accavitti, senior vice president and general manager, Acura Division. "Safety is a core value of the brand and all Acura models are expected to earn top safety scores. When you think of safety performance and luxury, you'll think Acura."
Acura anticipates earning top NCAP and IIHS ratings for every model in its lineup for this year. The company currently has four models earning an NCAP 5-star Overall Vehicle Score, including the 2015 ILX, TLX, RDX and MDX. The RLX sedan has yet to undergo NCAP testing. Three models also earn a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the IIHS: the 2015 RLX, TLX and MDX.
