Radar system monitors the area ahead of the vehicle and initiates braking in case of possible collision.
Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ body provides enhanced protection from multi-directional collision.
Adaptive technology that automatically maintains temperature levels in different zones inside the cabin.
Advanced navigation system pinpoints your location and offers multiple routes to reach your destination.
Reduces unwanted cabin noise by countering it with sound frequencies from the audio system.
At Acura, Safety Through Innovation is based on the idea that an advanced driving experience starts with advanced safety features. This guiding principle is reinforced through the extensive number of standard safety features and use of innovative technologies you'll find in all Acura vehicles.
Maximum safety is achieved with six airbags designed to protect all occupants inside the cabin. Depending on the point and force of impact, the RL will deploy dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags that activate at one of two rates depending on the severity of the impact; front side airbags with the innovative passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS) that will not release if the system detects a small-sized or improperly positioned passenger; and side curtain airbags with state-of-the-art rollover sensors.
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps maintain steering control when braking hard on wet, slippery or loose surfaces, while Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) balances braking forces at each wheel to help compensate for weight distribution inside the cabin. Plus, there's a Brake Assist feature that senses a panic stop and applies maximum braking power to help you stop quickly.
The Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) system with Traction Control will automatically detect and correct understeer or oversteer situations before you're even aware there's a need. The system intuitively monitors your driving conditions and automatically reduces the throttle and/or applies braking to individual wheels. Should a loss of traction occur during acceleration on slippery road surfaces, Traction Control will compensate to get you safely underway.
Correct tire pressure is critical to safety, performance and fuel efficiency. Enter the RL's Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), which continually monitors the air pressure in each tire. If pressure drops in any tire, a transponder attached to the wheel's valve stem transmits the information to a receiver, and a warning appears on your instrument panel indicating which tire requires attention.
Instead of following a traditional kilometre-and-calendar maintenance schedule, the RL instinctively calculates service needs based on your driving habits. This advanced system takes into account engine revolutions, stop-and-go traffic experience, weather extremes and the frequency of short trips to determine when your next service visit should be. The system helps coordinate oil-servicing dates and other routine maintenance as well.
The innovative Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE) body structure adopts a high-tensile, high-efficiency unit-body safety cell structure to provide enhanced protection from multi-directional collision. ACE reduces the concentrated force of a frontal impact by absorbing energy over a large area and dispersing it away from you and other occupants inside the interior cabin space. Additionally, ACE is also designed to help reduce occupant injuries caused by misalignment in collisions between vehicles of different sizes.
The rearview camera* shows a colour image on the navigation-system screen of the area directly behind the vehicle. Even if the navigation system is turned off, the camera is activated automatically when you engage reverse, giving you a clear picture of what is behind you. *Does not replace the driver’s responsibility to exercise due care while reversing.
