Electronic Power Steering
Where some stop, the CSX is constantly pushing forward. More than just power steering, the CSX has adopted an innovative approach that eliminates the need for a hydraulic pump, providing you with quicker steering response and increased efficiency. Because the steering relies entirely on the electrical system, engine power drain is eliminated as well as the additional weight associated with conventional power steering systems, making the CSX more agile in corners.

| Performance |
| |
2.0-litre, 155-hp Engine
Race-inspired to its aluminum core, the CSX is propelled by a high-performance 2.0-litre DOHC i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine. This lightweight and reliable engine boasts an aluminum block and head with DOHC 16-valve design. The driving result is one of exceptional fuel efficiency and low emissions.
|
| |
Intelligent Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic (i-VTEC) Control
The dual camshaft profiles of the compact, race-inspired i-VTEC engine deliver greater power across the entire rpm range. Offering a boost of low-end torque for faster off-the-line speed and high-end rpm power for passing on highways, the i-VTEC engine possesses an abundant amount of force. Plus, with the added engineering benefit of Variable Timing Control (VTC) engine intake and the smoother power delivery of the Drive-by-Wire Throttle System™, the i-VTEC engine is exceedingly responsive and efficient. |

| Safety |
| |
Airbags
For maximum safety, the CSX features six airbags designed to protect all occupants inside the cabin. Depending on the point and force of impact, the CSX will deploy: dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags that activate at one of two rates based on severity of impact; front side airbags with the innovative passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System that will not release if the system detects a smaller-sized or improperly positioned passenger; and side curtain airbags with state-of-the-art rollover sensors. Plus, for the driver and passenger, Active Head Restraints provide excellent neck protection in case of rear impact. |
| |
 |
Braking
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps maintain steering control when braking hard on wet, slippery or loose surfaces, while Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) balances braking forces at each wheel to help compensate for passenger weight distribution inside the cabin. Plus, there's an available Brake Assist feature on the CSX Type-S that senses a panic stop and applies maximum braking power to help you stop quickly and safely.
|
| |
Body Structure
The innovative Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure utilizes a high-tensile, high-efficiency steel body structure to provide enhanced protection from multi-directional collision. ACE reduces the concentrated force of a frontal impact by absorbing energy over a large area and dispersing it away from the vehicle's interior cabin area. Additionally, ACE is designed to help reduce occupant injuries caused by misalignment in collisions between vehicles of different sizes.
|
| |
Pedestrian Safety
Acura's “Safety Through Innovation” goes one step beyond with a revolutionary approach to pedestrian safety. The CSX exterior design incorporates energy- absorbing hood and front fenders, and breakaway wiper pivots to mitigate pedestrian injury.

Lighting-System - High Intensity Discharge (HID) Headlights*
The CSX's available High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights produce an intensely brilliant beam of focused light, enhancing your ability to identify what's ahead and what to avoid.
