Lousy electronics

The electronics on this car are awful. Ask it for directions and it tells you today's date. Imports my address book from iPhone in a jumbled mess. Ask it to dial number and it dials someone else. Cannot control my iPhone music with info system. Called Acura and they said "You can if you pay us $154 a year". Are you kidding me? Why not Apple Play like Honda Civic? Paid too much for this car for third class info entertainment system.

I’ve had my 2020 RLX for three years now and it performs beautifully I’ve put over 20k miles a year on it. Ever time I drive this car it makes me smile and laugh. I smile because I love the car and I laugh at all the people who criticize this car. Again just ask the owners of this vehicle. They are all laughing as well!!!

Prior to buying this I drove almost every sport/luxury car on the market like the BMW 5 Series, Genesis G80, Mercedes E350, etc. The RLX Sport Hybrid stood out for its serene ride, superb power delivery, efficiency, and reliability. Not to mention it comes with all the options, more even than competitors for a better value. The infotainment system was not upgraded by Acura in 2018 with the rest of its fleet but you can get wired/wireless carplay installed aftermarket using the same display and buttons. The Krell Audio is fantastic and the seats are very comfortable. The ride quality with the stock tires Primacy mxm4 was a little soft for my taste, and those tires were not my favorite, so I upgraded to ultra high performance Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3's and it made a huge difference. With the new tires getting about 28mpg with regular driving, about a 4mpg bump from stock tires... Shifting from Hybrid to gas is automatic and happen seamlessly. This would be a great car to buy second hand if it was taken care of well.

Car has good power with fuel economy. Would be nice if it could run on 89 octane. Has all necessary safety devices except surround cameras for parking. Good leg room front and back. Now Acura is charging extra for black paint and side crome and many items that were part of the overall price of the car not add on like today. The price of a TLX is around the same amount of the RLX but smaller size engine only able to purchase All wheel drive with purchasing a S class vehicle. This RLX is the car that will hold its retail price and give better results when driving for your money paid when new. This is why I purchased the RLX.

Probably the best sedan we have ever owned. We have owned multiple Acura's starting with the original Legend moving to the TLS, both in 2 and 4 door versions, the first RL, then two versions of the RLX Hybrid and the RDX. We had an Onyx/black hybrid RLX until I saw a silver grey RLX hybrid with SHAWD in the showroom and traded in Our 2019 for the 2020 due to the appearance and trim of that vehicle. My wife, who drives this vehicle, has received more compliments regarding the appearance both internally and externally of this vehicle. the passengers, after they experience the ride, have nothing but praise regarding its comfort and handling. Prior to this vehicle we have owned multiple large luxury sedans, both BMW and Mercedes but have not found neither the desire nor the necessity to return to German engineering. We have found everything we have searched for in this full-sized sedan. Our only dilemma is that Acura has discontinued this model due to the decreasing sales of large sedans in the USA. they seem to be concentrating on SUV's.
