The all-new 2013 Acura ILX is a compact sedan that’s based on the popular Honda Civic. This luxury five-seater is short on high-end features for its high starting price of $26,795, says Cars.com Family reviewer Carrie Kim. The ILX’s interior is better suited for date night than carpool. Carrie and her toddler fit well in the ILX, but if they added another passenger, it felt cramped.
