2017 Acura TLX vs 2017 Lexus ES 350 near Milwaukee, ILSeating in the Acura TLX

 

Top Photo: Vehicle shown is the 2017 Acura TLX V6 in Lunar Silver Metallic with the Advance Package.

With so many impressive models flooding the luxury midsize sedan segment, it can be difficult to narrow down your options. However, we are here to help at Acura of Brookfield and have compiled a comparison between the Acura TLX vs Lexus ES 350 so you can see exactly how these competitors measure up against one another. From its eye-catching style, to its remarkable performance, the TLX effortlessly overcomes all obstacles in this matchup. You can see it in action today at your Milwaukee-area Acura dealer, Acura of Brookfield.

You’ll enjoy a spacious and feature-packed cabin once you step inside the Acura TLX. While at the wheel, you’ll appreciate the Acura TLX’s 42.6 inches of legroom. You may feel more cramped in the Lexus ES 350 since it only provides you with 41.9 inches of rear legroom. The TLX makes you feel right at home with its standard ambient lighting, whereas this comforting feature is only optional in the 2017 ES 350. If you want to indulge in maximum luxury, the TLX offers supple leather seating on its second trim level. However, if you want access to this lush feature in the Lexus ES 350, you’ll have to add on a separate package.

Under the hood of the TLX, you’ll find a powertrain that is efficient, ideal for your commutes to Racine. The Acura TLX’s energy-saving technology makes it a step ahead of its competitor in this 2017 TLX vs 2017 ES 350 comparison near Milwaukee. With its fuel economy of 24/35 MPG city/hwy1 the TLX’s 2.4L 4-cylinder base engine knows how to save you time at the pump. On the other hand, you may have to make more frequent stops to the gas station when you drive the ES 350  since its 3.5L V6 standard option only offers a rating of 21/30 MPG city/hwy2. Take on the road ahead with confidence and ultimate precision in the 2017 TLX, thanks to its standard 8-speed Dual-clutch Transmission with a torque converter and Sequential Sport Shift paddle shifters. Disappointingly, the most you’ll get in the 2017 ES 350’s first iteration is a more basic 6-speed sequential-shift automatic transmission.

As we reach to what is found on the exterior of both luxury midsize sedans, you’ll see that the TLX boasts one-of-a-kind elements. The TLX's Jewel Eye® LED headlights illuminate the path ahead to give you the ultimate range of sight. Others will be able to spot you from a distance as well, so this feature benefits you and drivers on the road. You certainly won’t find this feature on the Lexus ES 350.

When it comes down to the details, the Acura TLX earns the winning title in this 2017 Acura TLX vs 2017 Lexus ES 350 near Milwaukee, WI, comparison. Here at Acura of Brookfield, we are here to help you customize a TLX of your very own so make sure to visit us soon! We are conveniently located at 19180 W. Bluemound Road in Brookfield, WI, right down the street from Brownstones Shopping Center.

Testimonials

I highly recommend this dealership and Brian Hoppe.

Brian Hoppe was our salesperson and he was great. He made the purchase smooth from testing the car to purchasing it. Communicating prior to test drive was easy. I sent a message and they reached out and were able to set up an appointment on the same day. No spam calls, just text for communication as we preferred. Upon arrival, Brian was very thoughtful and had warmed up the car for us to test drive. We were able to immediately hop in and test drive without having to worry about warming up the engine or having a hovering salesperson in the backseat. He was not pushy at all, and he didn't have to be. The cars here speak for themselves. You could tell the car was well taken care of and maintained to Acura of Brookfield's high standards. We were able to test drive for a while before confirming the purchase. Although it was past working hours, Brian stayed late to set us up for financing. He took care of us and made sure we had drinks and snacks. The price was reasonable and on top of that Brian set us up with even better financing rates than we had initially hoped for. It was a easy yes. We were able to wrap up signing papers and pick it up the next day which took not even an hour. The car was newly washed, tank full, car warmed up, and parked in front for our convenience. It also had Acura merch plus a little gift. Fun! It made the experience great and throughly seamless. Note, we had been searching for a car for over two months dealing with shady dealerships and salespersons who were pushy and deceptive. This dealership and it's employees were nothing like that. They are honest and fair and hold themselves to high standards when it comes to the quality of their cars. I highly recommend this dealership and Brian Hoppe.

Just purchased a pre-owned Honda Accord from Brian Hoppe at Acura of Brookfield. From the moment I walked through the showroom doors he was very professional and easy to deal with. He answered EVERY question I had. He knew a lot about the vehicle that I was interested in and truly made me feel like a valued customer. No hidden fees or high pressure sales. The whole process was very refreshing! I will be buying more cars from Brian in the future. Highly Recommend!!!!

Just bought my second Certified Used car from Acura of Brookfield, 8 years after my first one. I worked with Malcolm and he was great - personable, honest, and he knew the vehicles well. I had planned on a 4-5 year cycle but couldn't let go of my TL and now stepped into a MDX. Both times I was treated with attention and respect - it was a great buying experience and pricing was competitive. I really appreciate how they run this dealership and will recommend them to anyone.
