You don’t just want a car that can take you from Point A to Point B; you want to drive a luxury vehicle that makes the journey just as enjoyable as reaching the destination itself. The 2020 Acura RLX is the ride to give you just that. Keep reading to learn more about why so many people love this 2020 version of Acura’s classic.
Interior
The cabin simply screams luxury. So, just what can you expect when you step into this luxury sedan? For starters, expect plenty of space, unlike other luxury vehicles whose cabins are cramped. The 2020 RLX boasts plenty of cozy cabin space and ample legroom. The seats also adjust 12 ways with dual heating for a truly comfortable ride.
But that’s not all. There’s plenty of storage space throughout, along with USB charging ports for your phones, so you’ll never be left disconnected. Upgrading to the premium 14-speaker audio system provides a truly unmatched audio experience, meaning you can immerse yourself in your favorite tunes throughout the ride.
Premium contrast stitching, along wood grain and metallic paneling, complete the look of the interior.
Features
Of course, you can’t forget all the high-tech goodies that truly make this year’s RLX stand apart from the competition.
Safety
For starters, even the base safety package is impressive. A 2020 Acura RLX comes equipped with AcuraWatch, an advanced safety system that’s packed with driver-assistive technology to make your ride safer and smoother at every step of the journey. With the RLX, you can expect:
- Collision Mitigation Braking System™,
- Adaptive Cruise Control,
- Lane Keeping Assist System,
- Road Departure Mitigation,
- And More!
Advanced Climate Control
Your comfort will be elevated further with this vehicle’s GPS-Linked Tri-Zone Climate Control system. This system uses internal and external sensors to automatically adjust the cabin to an ideal temperature. Of course, everyone can disagree with what that temperature is; that’s why the Acura RLX lets the driver, front passengers, and rear passengers all adjust the temperature of their own space for optimized comfort.
High-end Touchscreen Display
Drivers can control it all through a breathtaking 7” color display touchscreen. Shortcuts, audio, climate control, you name it: it’s all right within this centrally located intuitive control center. Complementing this touchscreen are 6 hard control buttons right underneath, which allow you to easily control the cabin’s climate without having to take your eyes off the road.
Exterior
With sleek lines, a bold grille, stunning headlights, and cool colors, it’s hard not to notice the RLX’s 2020 redesign. You can customize your ride in one of two knockout colors: Majestic Black Pearl or Brilliant Red Metallic. Throw in the 19” alloy wheels, and you have a sedan that looks just as good as it drives.
Fuel Economy
As far as luxury vehicles go, the RLX is average in terms of fuel economy, with 20 MPG in the city and 29 MPG on the highway, with a combined 23 MPG.
Engine
What’s powering this ride? Under the hood, you’ll find a 3.5 L V6 engine that’s capable of churning out 310 horsepower. With the sports hybrid SH-AWD, that goes up to 377 horsepower. Drivers have the option of 10-speed transmission or 7-speed DCT transmission.
Pricing
The 2020 Acura RLX is called a luxury vehicle for a reason; the starting MSRP is around $54,900. Adding extra features or upgrading to the sports hybrid version of the RLX will increase the price.
Final Thoughts
When it comes to style, it’s hard to beat Acura’s 2020 RLX. While things could be better in terms of fuel economy, the slick exterior and feature-packed interior more than make up for this slight drawback. So, when it comes to selecting the perfect luxury sedan for you, make sure to check out the 2020 Acura RLX.
