2004 Acura RL Review Summary
What reviewers liked most about the 2004 Acura RL:
The 3.5RL follows Acura's successful formula of providing a long list of standard luxury features in a single model. The only option is a navigation system.
- Car and DriverThe RL's two main problems are a lack of luxury and a lack of performance.
- Edmunds.comMost rivals have more power, a more isolated ride, and the improved response of a 5-speed automatic transmission. Absence of curtain airbags is another significant shortfall in this class.
- Consumer GuideAgile for a luxury sedan, but a step behind most rear-drive rivals.
- Consumer GuideFor '04, the newly standard navigation system accepts voice commands, and satellite radio joins the list of standard equipment.
- Consumer GuideThe ride is smooth on freeways thanks to a suspension that soaks up most road irregularities. The engine, too, is free of noise, vibration and harshness.
