The 2016 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD boasts new features including AcuraWatch, which is now offered as standard equipment on all models, along with an available 360-degree Surround View Camera system. The only luxury sedan with a torque-vectoring hybrid powertrain, the 2016 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid produces a combined system output of 377 horsepower and 341 lb-ft of torque. A direct injected 3.5-liter V6 engine powers the RLX Sport Hybrid with a three-motor hybrid system featuring Acura's signature Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system.

This powertrain provides a unique combination of exhilarating all-weather, any-road dynamic performance, along with exceptional acceleration. These performance attributes are matched by the RLX Sport Hybrid's luxurious appointments, and for 2016, even more comprehensive feature content including the AcuraWatch suite of safety and driver assistive technologies, a bi-directional starter, and a heated steering wheel.

New for the 2016 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid, Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) uses a Monocular Camera (mounted on the upper portion of the windshield) to identify solid or dashed painted lane lines, Botts' Dots, and Cat Eye markers. RDM uses both steering force and braking force to help the RLX Sport Hybrid avoid leaving a detected lane or roadway.

The 2016 Acura RLX is available in two trims, RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD with Technology Package and RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD with Advance Package.
