It&#8217;s an enhanced look to be sure; the hawkish expression has been substituted by a flatter, more contemporary grille that is still flanked by\u00a0&#8220;Jewel Eye&#8221; LED headlights. There is also a novel hood that is extra sculpted, new wheel designs and numerous modification to the rear, counting a rear diffuser and taillights with a new LED design, which will make the RLX stand out at night. In totaling, two new exterior colors will be accessible: Brilliant Red Metallic and Majestic Black Pearl.<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5191\" src=\"https:\/\/autodeals.pk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capturerrf-300x235.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"626\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Power train<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5195\" src=\"https:\/\/autodeals.pk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/gbb-300x283.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"754\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The powertrains in both the RLX and RLX Sport Hybrid have the identical power output as\u00a0last year&#8217;s models, except each features some new augmentations for the 2018 model year.

The RLX Sport Hybrid is in fact the more robust performer of the two; it utilizes the similar gas engine but adds three electric motors for a total output of 377 hp.\u00a0Acura&#8217;s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system\u00a0is standard on the hybrid.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5196\" src=\"https:\/\/autodeals.pk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/b-300x251.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"669\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Interior<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"vertical-align: baseline;line-height: 2.6rem;margin: 0in 0in 6.35pt\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5194\" src=\"https:\/\/autodeals.pk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/gbgbb-300x237.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"632\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"vertical-align: baseline;line-height: 2.6rem;margin: 0in 0in 6.35pt\">Acura did not proclaim many alterations to the inside further than the standard line of &#8220;upgraded materials and touch points.&#8221; There is a new seat featuring high-contrast piping and stitching, along with a new Espresso color choice for the upholstery.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5193\" src=\"https:\/\/autodeals.pk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/gh-300x217.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"578\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Safety<\/h2>\n<p>The RLX come standard with AcuraWatch, which adds Traffic Jam Assist for 2018.
