Comparison Review

Comfort
The Acura TLX offers rear passengers about the same space to stretch out as the BMW i4 Gran Coupe with comparable rear head- and legroom in both vehicles. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Acura TLX and the BMW i4 Gran Coupe in the front seats.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Acura TLX is clearly a better financial choice over the BMW i4 Gran Coupe.

Dimensions
Since the Acura TLX is much wider than the BMW i4 Gran Coupe, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Acura TLX, which is slightly longer than the BMW i4 Gran Coupe.

Handling
The Acura TLX has a smaller turning radius than the BMW i4 Gran Coupe, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Acura TLX is significantly less powerful than the BMW i4 Gran Coupe. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Acura TLX does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the BMW i4 Gran Coupe.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Acura TLX and the BMW i4 Gran Coupe.
