Acura' s Surprise New 2019 ILX Debuts

Sep. 06, 2018 3:45 PM ET by Michael Accardi Reveal / 13 Comments Unforeseen developments! Acura has just announced its 2019 ILX has undergone a surprise refresh ahead of its October on-sale date. Just because it arrived unexpectedly, doesn't mean the new sheet metal is unappreciated, as now Acura's entire lineup sports a cohesive company design language. Acura It's an important car for Acura, the company says the ILX actually captures the highest percentage of millennial buyers in-segment and as a result, the brand has stepped up its game to offer a more sporty and sophisticated looking exterior, premium cabin features, and new technology. Key among the upgrades is the inclusion of the AcuraWatch driver assistance tech suite as standard fitment. This includes collision mitigation braking, forward collision warning, lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, road departure, and lane departure warning.

Flanking the new grille are an updated pair of Acura's Jewel Eye LED headlights, this time featuring seven elements instead of five. The rear gains a new decklid, LED taillights, and lower diffuser with exposed exhaust outlets. There's also a range of wheel designs and five new exterior paint shades.

There are reshaped seats, and new silver finished trimmings, chrome inserts on the dashboard, and a machine-finished push-button start.
