Buyers in the market for a mid-sized luxury sedan are lucky these days, because there is no lack of options, and they're all excellent. Germany can offer the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Audi A6 and BMW 5 Series, England counters with the Jaguar XF, and Japan can offer the Lexus GS and Infiniti M...but Acura would like you to consider its new RLX.

Previewed in concept form at the New York Auto Show this past fall, the RLX may not have the badge clout associated with some of its competitors, but what it lacks in prestige it more than makes up for in technological mastery.
