2002 Acura RL Test Drive

In showrooms since spring of the 2002 model year, the ’02 version of Acura’s flagship sedan retained all the original RL’s features but added a host of welcome upgrades to the engine and chassis.  Output of the RL’s silky smooth 3.5L V6 rose form 210 to 225 hp, while torque was up from 224 to 231.  Recalibrated rack and pinion power steering offered improved feel, and 225/55/16 tires on restyled alloy wheels replaced the previous 20560 rubber. One other change of note: OnStar was added to the car’s amazingly comprehensive roster of standard equipment.  Save for color choice, the RL’s sole option was a DVD based navigation system.
