The vehicle boasts a whole host of state of the art technical features like Satellite navigation and blue-tooth connectivity. The 6.5 inch LCD display
screen (8 inch if upgraded) dominates the center dash and is controlled by a large knob which first appeared on their RL model. This controls all of the screen menus and I found it extremely easy to use, especially when trying to input street names into the navigation system.
There is comfortable leather seating for five and, although the cargo area is not as large as some of its competitors, Acura have made good use of additional storage sites. The centre console is truly worthy of note as it appears to be of normal size, except that it can hold a notebook computer, possibly even two. It has been well thought out as there are flaps inside which fold up so the box can be made as deep as you wish. That's clever!
Acura states that this vehicle is aimed at the young professionals and I'd say that they have their sights bang on. It boasts stylish good looks, coupled with above average performance and more than enough room for most people's requirements. It has all the modern technical features that buyers are seeking and wraps the whole package up nicely in an up-market wrapper.
I found the RDX to be a very forward thinking and futuristic design. Although I love the retro-look vehicles that we are seeing nowadays, this blast into the future approach is also cool. If this is what the future holds for car manufacturing, I say great. Now if I could only find that teleport button!
