Acura RLX
The latest Acura RLX is by far the largest sedan ever designed by the Japanese brand. The new flagship prides itself on offering all passengers a great deal of legroom. The new 3.5L 310-hp V6 is bolstered by Variable Cylinder Management (VCM), which deactivates three of the six cylinders when the car is going at a constant cruising speed.
