While Acura is prepping the beakless 2018 TLX for
its debut in New York Auto Show, the brand's Asian arm is getting ready to unveil a long
wheelbase version of the car.
It will appear for the first time at the 2017 Auto
Shanghai, adding a few inches between the two
axles to boost rear legroom, something that's apparently appreciated by Chinese
customers.
The LWB TLX will probably benefit from the same
updated design as its North American sibling, which will include a new front
fascia, along with different lighting units and bumpers, on both ends. Along
with the TLX, parent company Honda will also present the new Honda CR-V, which
was unveiled at last year's LA Auto Show, but will likely be tweaked for the
local market.
