Models also known as Trim Levels, are used to identify a vehicle's level of equipment or special features.
It is the best driving car that I have ever owned (even compared to my previous BMW). It fits 5 comfortably but is not so large that it feels big when driving. It is a beautiful car and I love that the repairs are never too expensive.
Just had the car for a week. Really nice car. It is quiet and rides like a compact luxury car. It is solid and fast. Have no problems getting up to speed especially in sport mode. So far, I am getting about 50 miles per gallon in mixed driving. The car is underrated. I have not experienced the engine noise that the reviewers are talking about. When starting the engine, it is so quiet, you do not know that it is running. The first day I got the car.
It is reliable and a cool looking car. It also gets good gas mileage and consistently is in style. I have leased this car again and again and I just bought the 2018 model. Excellent car for the price.
The battery has died twice in 2 years. 5 adults at one time would be a bit too uncomfortable. The tires are also expensive but they last a long time. I have owned 3 Acuras and will probably stay an Acura owner for life.
The main drawback is the insight's somewhat noisy operation. There can be significant engine vibration at idle when the car needs to charge the battery, for instance. But this is a minor gripe considering everything else and the EPA-estimated 52 mpg. Taken on the whole, the insight is an excellent sedan that makes the fuel-sipping hybrid lifestyle more appealing. It might even give Prius die-hards a reason to switch.
It rides very low to the ground. You can feel the bumps and bruises a little more than you would in an expensive vehicle. It also is a bit cramped and the audio sound system does not always work well.
The 2018 Acura ILX has an average owner rating of 4.48 out of 5 which ranks it #16 of 19 other Luxury Small Cars.
