Does the Acura TSX have all-wheel drive?

I’m in the market for an affordable used car for my teenager, but would love all-wheel drive as an added safety feature. Is that something available for the Acura TSX?

The
Acura TSX
was produced for model years 2009 through 2014, but all-wheel drive was never an option.
The TSX’s 201-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine is paired with a five-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission. Another option is a 280-hp, 3.5-liter V-6 engine, which can be paired only with a five-speed automatic transmission. No matter what you choose, your Acura will only come with front-wheel drive.
If you choose to buy a TSX, adding a solid set of snow tires is a great way to make it perform better in snow, ice, and cold.
Or, you can check out a used Acura that comes in AWD—such as the
TL
or
TLX
.
No matter what option you decide is best for your teen driver, make sure their vehicle is equipped with an amazing

policy before they hit the road.
