Key Features
AcuraWatch™ Plus
No matter how stylish or exciting a vehicle may be, safety remains one of the most important considerations when it comes to purchasing a new model. That's why we recommend drivers select the AcuraWatch™ Plus option for the 2018 RDX as it adds a suite of active safety features that not only make driving safer, but easier as well. AcuraWatch™ Plus comes complete with adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, forward collision warning with collision-mitigation braking, and more.
ELS Studio® Premium Audio System
The right soundtrack can improve everything from a daily commute to a cross-country road trip, so why skimp when it comes to the RDX's stereo system? The available ELS Studio® Premium 10-speaker Audio System (which comes as part of the RDX Technology Package) was designed in part by Grammy®-winning recording engineer and producer Elliot Scheiner. Who wouldn't want to experience sound quality akin to a recording studio each and every time they enter their RDX?
Alternative Options
Those on the lookout for something a little larger should consider the Acura MDX, a five-door luxury SUV available with seating for six or seven. With new styling; a more luxurious interior; and added technologies, including an available hybrid powertrain, there's plenty to love about the MDX. Looking for something a little sportier? Consider the all-new NSX. Designed to be just as approachable and exhilarating as the original, the new NSX also features a sophisticated hybrid powertrain and all-wheel drive system. With the NSX, Acura proves that efficiency and performance aren’t mutually exclusive. Visit Hall Acura Virginia Beach today to learn more.
