2018 Acura RLX Technology Package Specs

Together with its freshened up design, the RLX is distinguished by Jewel Eye LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, LED-illuminated taillights, a power moonroof with tilt feature, and 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels in a bright finish. The upgraded seating of the 2018 model is now available in an Espresso color, and perforated Milano leather is standard. Both front seats are 12-way power adjustable and heated, along with four-way lumbar adjustment. Further aiding comfort and convenience are tri-zone climate control, push-button ignition, a keyless access system, and an automatic dimming rearview mirror. Infotainment is taken care of by dual screens (an eight-inch upper screen and a seven-inch touch screen lower down) and included are Aha and Pandora compatibility, HD radio, SiriusXM satellite radio, Bluetooth streaming audio, song by voice, and Acura’s navigation system with 3D view. The sound system is an impressive ELS unit with 14 speakers. An extensive safety specification comprises adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, traffic jam assist, road departure mitigation, and a collision mitigation braking system with head-up warning. Driver visibility is enhanced with a multi-view rear camera (with dynamic guidelines), blind spot information system, and auto-on/off headlights.
