Acura ilx in ghana

Those of you who are following the situation in the automotive market are already used to the fact that cars are getting more expensive. With the release of each next generation (and after the next restyling), prices rise to one degree or another. So when the automaker suddenly announces that it is revising the price list for a five-year-old and newly refurbished compact sedan downward, you raise your eyebrows in surprise. We are talking about the junior representative of the Acura line under the name ILX. After restyling, the car received a largely revised appearance and became cheaper. Now it can be bought in the States for at least $ 25,900, that is, at the price of 2013. At the same time, the compact sedan has acquired an extended list of standard equipment. But is the change enough to get the attention of crossover-obsessed customers? Of course, ILX's efforts are not enough to make itself more attractive to more practical rivals. And this is a problem that many compact sedans face today. At the same time, the junior representative of the Acura line is a good buy for  Acura ilx in ghana those few customers whose crossovers did not live up to expectations. For them, the updated ILX is an affordable alternative to premium models such as the Audi A3 or the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class. And this is mainly due to the rather rich equipment of the updated "Acura". Even as standard, the ILX comes with an extensive array of AcuraWatch safety systems (same as the Honda Sensing). The complex includes: adaptive cruise control, collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane control and keeping functions. Simply put, there is currently no car on sale in the USA in this class of car, which offers by default an equally rich list of assistants. What else is in the database? LED headlights, dual-zone climate control, heated front seats and push button start. And that's all in the entry-level model. However, it is not that far in terms of equipment from the top-end A-Spec version we took for testing (plus $ 5650 to the starting price). At the same time, the most sophisticated version of the updated ILX is 400 bucks cheaper than the initial front-wheel drive Audi A3 (from $ 31,950). And don't even think that the low price means mediocre powertrains. Yes, the ILX only has a naturally aspirated 2.4 "four" against the 2-liter turbo engines of its closest competitors, but it is a very capable engine with a return of 204 horsepower and 244 Nm. In addition, the Acura unit with the VTEC system outperforms the German turbo-fours at high revs. Of course, the motor is quite noisy in this mode, but what emotions! Like the engine, the eight-speed dual-clutch robot went to the refurbisher from the pre-reform ILX sedan. Yes, this is not a new box, but DCT is still very good. And especially in manual mode, if you click the steps with the paddle shifters. With active driving, upshifts occur very quickly, as well as downshifting several gears. The transmission in all modes knows which stage and when to tuck. And it is also quite good on winding paths, as we managed to see on part of our route, including through the Ohio farms. But it was not possible to fully assess the characteristics of the suspension due to the fact that the area with poor coverage was too short. In general, the ILX proved to be quite comfortable both on small, almost imperceptible irregularities, and on larger pits. Based on the impressions received, it can be argued that the ILX behaves better on undulating asphalt than the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class. At the same time, Acura is easily controlled due to a well-tuned steering mechanism and minimal roll, although the driver still lacks feedback. And this is not the only complaint. It is quite difficult for the driver to adjust the seat to achieve an optimal fit. The seats themselves in the ILX are comfortable, but the adjustment ranges are very limited. Because of this, the forward view is in many ways inferior to, for example, the recently tested Volkswagen Golf. The ILX also comes with the same dual-screen media as the larger TLX by default. But unlike the latter, the compact sedan's touchscreen display is less responsive and less user-friendly. And it doesn't look so good, even with the updated graphics. Yes, this is not a new box, but DCT is still very good. The onboard multimedia in the updated Acura ILX was made friends with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but not only is the information from the smartphone displayed on the top screen of https://cars45.com.gh/listing/acura/ilx
