Professional Reviews

• “The 300-hp. RL is a fine piece of work - quick, quiet, surefooted, luxurious - and standard with all-wheel drive, not extra.” — Cars.com
• “With eight-way adjustability for the driver's seat plus a steering column that telescopes as well as tilts, nearly any adult should find a comfortable position behind the RL's wheel.” — Cars.com
• “Even if you're no Michael Schumacher, this car makes you feel like a champ, as it makes the most of all available grip.” — Edmunds.com
• “The interior of the new RL is befitting of a true luxury car.” — Edmunds.com
• “I heard the test car's engine start, but it was a faint sound, and even hard acceleration brought engine sounds that seemed to be far away. This is how insulated the RL's interior is.” — MSN Autos
• “It is a comprehensively complete car.” — Automobile
• “...there are all-wheel-drive sedans I'd rather have, but, then again, they would be German, and they probably wouldn't have the stellar reliability that I bet this Acura will provide over the long haul.” — Automobile
• “Though lacking in prestige and personality, the Acura RL is still luxurious and packed with technology. ” — Edmunds.com
• “It's a smart choice for value-conscious luxury sedan shoppers.” — Edmunds.com
• “On the downside, RL prices are high for the class, and the only available engine comes up just short of being sporty.” — Consumer Guide
• “Wanting only in the areas of price and power, Acura's RL offers a fresh take on the luxury sedan formula. Count standard all-wheel drive, especially comfortable seats, and a handsome cabin among RL's chief pluses.” — Consumer Guide
