Why doesn't my TLX match the EPA numbers?

Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page comes from the U.S. EPA fuel economy dataset on fueleconomy.gov, pulled together by Cedrick Reese. The file lists 50 ratings for the Acura TLX from 2015 to 2025. Each row in the table links to the matching EPA vehicle record, so you can check any figure against the source. When the EPA posts an updated file with new model years or corrected ratings, this page is rebuilt from it. The cost calculator uses the gas price you enter rather than a national average, so the result fits where you live.

Ratings on this page come from the EPA file downloaded on October 1, 2026.
