    Acura MDX
    • 2013 Acura MDX: Look for a full redesign of the MDX for the 2013 model year.

    Acura NSX
    • 2015 Acura NSX: Acura bragged at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show that it will bring the second-generation NSX to market inside of three years and that it will be developed and built in the USA. Details include a hybrid all-wheel-drive powertrain utilizing a gasoline V6 linked to dual-clutch gearbox housing an electric motor. Additionally, each front wheel will be powered by its own electric motor. That three electric motors packaged in a way yet to been in any performance-focused model.

      More aggressive styling will characterize the all-new NSX which is clearly a two-seater with its gasoline engine mounted transversely behind the cockpit.

    Acura RDX
    • 2013 Acura RDX: The second-generation RDX is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 rated at 273 horsepower and mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The front-wheel-drive version is expected to get EPA fuel-economy ratings of 20 mpg in city driving and 28 on the highway. The five-passenger RDX also gets a longer wheelbase and wider track for enhanced stability and ride comfort, as well as an improved all-wheel-drive system and a new motion-adaptive electronic power steering system. Exterior styling changes are evolutionary.

    Acura RL
    • 2014 Acura RL: For the 2014 model year Acura's range-topping RL will offer the choice of gasoline or hybrid powertrains and the cabin space of a BMW 7 Series. Hybrid RLs — if that's the name Acura chooses to use for the new car — will utilize a 3.5-liter V6 paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission driving the front wheels while a 20kW electric motor will drive each rear wheel. Gasoline-powered models will be front-drive only.

    Acura TL
    • 2012 Acura TL: Fully redesigned in 2009, the Acura TL received a midcycle refresh for the 2012 model year.

    Acura TSX
    • 2014 Acura TSX: Look for a full redesign of the TSX for the 2014 model year.

    Acura ZDX
    • 2013 Acura ZDX: An all-new vehicle during the 2010 model year, the Acura ZDX will likely get a midcycle refresh around model year 2013.

    @bigcjm I agree this article may be outdated.  I've been in the market to upgrade my 2003 MDX.  I was initially waiting for the 2013, but I'm hearing that Acura will do the MDX redesign a year later than normal in 2014.  This article says 2013, that's wrong.

    Just placed a review of the 2013 ILX. I only gave it 3 stars based on price (went to the local dealer who had two on his lot. The first one came with the 150 hp (with tech) and was priced at $32500....What? Who is going to spend that amount of money on a rich man's Civic?

    I still like Acura better than Infiniti, then Lexus.
    They continue to surprise me.

    A good friend has the top of the line ZDX (Advance?)

    I was pretty surprise to see this car in real life.
    It's more... dramatic (;-) than what's shown in pictures.
    Especially from the rear. I kind of like it.

    The car is a bit heavy; but to surprise me again, the engine is pretty eager to push this funky car away.
    The ride is pretty good; comfortable for long road trip; IMHO, better (and more exciting) than the LS460.

    Hope they can improve the looks.
    Seeing how rare I see this on the road, I may be in the market for one.

    No mention of the ZF 9-speed auto?  Won't we see that on the non-hybrid RL/RLX?

    Ummm this has to be a mis informed article. TSX is being dropped next year. RLX will be out this fall. Not sure about the rest not announcement made from acura about any other vehicle in the near future.

    So, did IL not like the comments about Acura and remove them all, or is this a temporary glitch?  Perhaps they just signed Honda as an advertiser....
