Acura RLX
There are no changes when it comes to the RLX. The big luxury sedan still has an edge over many rivals with a strong, 377-horsepower hybrid system fitted as standard, just like Acura’s Super-Handling All-wheel Drive (SH-AWD). It’s also one of the safest and most reliable cars on the market. However, technology enthusiasts will have to keep waiting for an update to the multimedia interface, which is still not compatible with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
