This fall, Honda's premium division will launch the all-new 2009 Acura TL. Executives saw fit to redesign this model after four years on the Canadian market.

2009 Acura TL

Two trim levels will be offered, one with the brand's Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) technology -- a first for the TL. Originally introduced with the current-generation RL flagship sedan, it allows optimum torque distribution and enhanced traction at all four wheels.

The engine of the 2009 Acura TL will reportedly be the most powerful in the history of the company. However, no official information or technical specs have been released to this date.

Finally, the new sedan's styling will be in line with the smaller, recently-redesigned TSX, including the bold-looking front grille which will become the face of every new Acura automobile. The interior will be more luxurious and feature "more driver-relevant technology than ever."
