Acura RL Forges Its Own Path Against Lexus Infiniti
The 2005 Acura RL debuts with a 3.5 liter V6 producing 300 hp and standard all wheel drive. Priced around 49,470 dollars, it competes more with BMW and Audi styling than with top Lexus and Infiniti flagship sedans. The RL features a polished interior with keyless entry, navigation, OnStar, and robust safety tech, but its steering feel and torque delivery lag behind rival V8s.
