None of them are AWD and they are not in the same class.The Lexus IS250 competes with the Acura TSX. The IS250 is a compact sedan and the TL is a midsized sedan.I would get the Acura TL because it has 250HP and it looks much sportier and nicer than the Lexus. It is also more fun to drive.The Acura is Front wheel drive.Better in snow and rain. Not as good on dry pavement.The Lexus is Rear wheel drive.-Bad in snow and rain. Good on dry pavement.
