Car Tech - Acura RLX

2012-11-29
okay I'm a little worried about the RLX you just announced it in its production trim here at the LA Auto Show and there's nobody here you ever seen me do a video in Auto Show with this few people around certainly doesn't help at the car they roll that as their sample is done in the same color scheme as Kim Jong Il's state ride but that said this replaces the RL a much more staid to be honest and more practical big premium sedan the r LX will have either a 310 horsepower direct-injected v6 pretty normal stuff or a little later an exotic optional hybrid system based on that engine but then adding three electric motors one on the transmission the other two are wheel mounted we'll have more on that closer to its debut mid 2013 this car will also have pause precision all-wheel steering which means each rear wheel can change its steering angle independently for better handling and ease of steering easy to spot one of these cars from the front anyway jewel eye LED headlights still a rare extravagance in the car business and here expressed as 16 bright eyeballs looking at you inside there'll be a new high-end audio system available from Krell a boutique maker in Connecticut that's never done an in-car system before now down here you've got the traditional sort of turn press and kick knob you've seen in Acuras before but look up here here is a touch screen that is another interface area on top of the control and obviously Pandora and aha among your sources and then go up beyond that and there's the screen you used to be limited to in an Acura so look at this two large screens and still the knob controller and of course the car in this class you can expect it'll have all the driver assistance technologies from lane departure to blind spot adaptive cruise control also what they call low-speed follow so even at very low speeds and very low velocity traffic this car will sit there and chase the tail of what's in front of it kind of nibble its way through stop and go that's kind of slick you
