1/121. Acura TLX
The Acura TLX is set to replace both the TL and TSX in Acura’s sedan range, as the Honda brand tries to focus on more than just crossovers. Our first take?

Each year, a bumper crop of new cars ushers in a new model year. Those new cars can be significant redesigns, or simple facelifts, or more.
This year, there's a bigger than usual crop of brand-new cars. Some are vehicles never seen before--vehicles that could make or break some car brands--while others are wholesale reinventions of existing nameplates, with new styling or technology, or both.
Out of those brand-new vehicles, 17 of them are the most important new cars of 2015.
