Gotcha! Acura was proud to have stumped a bunch of automotive media sites by initially spreading word that a TSX was to be presented in Chicago, but it's the new RL sedan that got its stage debut.

Along with its cosmetic overhaul, the new RL is said to be the most powerful and most refined car that the company has ever produced.

The redesigned RL will be powered by a 3.7-liter V6, and output is bumped up slightly to 300 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque. The car also boasts the 2nd generation of the SH-AWD system.

As for the TSX, a new model will indeed be presented at a later date, and so will the TL.
