2012 Acura TL

Perhaps Acura's most controversially styled car with the power plenum grille is the 2011 TL sedan. The car has been a consistently good seller for the brand and we'll see a restyled 2012 version at the Chicago Auto Show on February 9.
Acura has provided a teaser image (pictured at top) of the TL’s rump in advance of the show. It receives a number of cosmetic changes for the 2012 model year. The rear fascia is much less slab-sided than the previous model, thanks in part to a chamfer that runs along the upper edge of the bumper itself. Acura has also moved the license plate mount up, into allowing for a clean, full-width diffuser design and slender reflectors.

Acura hasn't released any other information on the 2012 TL just yet, but it's safe to say the car's front grille will be revised from the 2011 model shown here. Now that the MDX and ZDX have received the six-speed automatic transmission, don't be surprised if the TL gets it, as well. Currently, the 2011 TL is rated 18/26 mpg city/highway in front-wheel-drive form, with a five-speed automatic. A six-speed automatic would likely increase those figures.
We're guessing that style, more than fuel economy, will increase TL sales, which were flat in 2010.
