This week on AutoGuide.com, the winner of the car review popularity contest is the 2013 Acura TSX.

The TSX is available with either a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with the choice of a 5-speed automatic or 6-speed manual, or a 3.5-liter V6 with the 5-speed automatic only. The four cylinder makes 201 hp, while the V6 puts out 280 hp.

Next on the list is the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel review. The diesel engine option returns to the Grand Cherokee for the 2014 model year, making 240 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. Diesel models get a 22/30 MPG (city/hwy) rating for 4×2 models and 21/28 mpg for the 4×4.

Third on the most read reviews list is the 2014 Mazda CX-5, which received a larger 2.5-liter engine this year that makes 184 hp and 185 lb-ft of torque. Fuel economy is rated at 25/32 mpg city/highway for front-drive models and 24/30 mpg for the all-wheel drive equipped CX-5.

Fourth is the 2013 Mini Paceman Review. Compared to the regular MINI hardtop, the Paceman is over a foot longer, 4-inches wider and 4-inches taller. Both a 121-hp 1.6-liter 4-cylinder and a 181 hp turbocharged version of that engine are available, as well as a 208 hp JCW model.

In the final spot is the 2013 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review. A 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine makes 140 hp and 240 lb-ft of torque under the hood of the Jetta SportWagen, all while achieving 30 mpg city, 42 mpg highway and 34 mpg combined.
