Earlier this year, Acura said its ILX compact will be priced well below $30,000; the automaker is sticking to the plan. The newest Acura on the block will start at $25,900 when it goes on sale next month. Prices for the 2013 ILX top out at $34,400.
Acura’s smallest sedan will be available with three powertrains:

The ILX 2.4 comes in a single Premium trim and features a 201-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine.
The brand’s first hybrid uses a 111-hp 1.5-liter powertrain and is available in base Hybrid trim or with the Tech package. Acura expects the hybrid to get EPA ratings of 35/38 mpg city/highway.
