2013謳歌ILX

????本田的準豪車品牌謳歌（Acura）由于目標設立得不正確，加上設計令人不爽，因此備受詬病，但現在謳歌正在重整旗鼓。謳歌一開始被定位為本田車主的升級車型，就像別克（Buick）與雪佛蘭（Chevrolet）的關系一樣。但由于設計過于前衛，再加上產品的命名令人摸不著頭腦，因此謳歌近年來一直裹足不前。該公司表示，謳歌的新重點將是“科技趣味”和“環保表現”。而ILX轎車將取代上圖中的TSX，成為謳歌的入門車型。謳歌ILX轎車基于本田思域平臺，它將于明年春天開始鋪貨，并將包含一款混動版，這也是謳歌的首款混合動力車型。

2013 Acura ILX

????Honda's much-maligned sub-luxury brand is resetting again after an unfortunate string of misguided aspirations and unsettling designs. Originally conceived as a step-up line for Honda owners the way Buick was for Chevrolet, it has wandered in recent years with aggressive designs and confusing nomenclature. Acura's new emphasis, the company says, will be on "fun technologies" and "environmental performance. The compact ILX will be the automaker's entry-level model, replacing the TSX (above). Based on the Honda Civic, it is due to reach dealers in the spring and will include a hybrid model, Acura's first.
