2019 Acura RLX | Fox Acura of El Paso
The well-equipped 2019 Acura RLX comes with a host of standard features from the factory, including a 310 horsepower V-6 engine, LED headlights and taillights, a keyless access system, and a standard built-in navigation system. Despite this, many buyers search for ways to further personalize their RLX. To their delight, Acura offers several options and packages to make your RLX really your own.
  1. Color

The most obvious way to customize a car is to pick its color. For 2019, the Acura RLX is available in seven exterior colors including Platinum White Pearl, Lunar Silver Metallic, and Brilliant Red Metallic. The interior can be finished in four colors: Ebony, Espresso, Seacoast, and Graystone.
  1. Packages

Upgrade the drivetrain and features of the RLX with the Sport Hybrid-Advance package. This adds Acura's Sport Hybrid Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system which uses three electric motors. This allows the rear outside wheel to spin slightly faster in a curve for better cornering. The system also allows for better traction in inclement weather. Other upgrades for the Sport Hybrid-Advance package include a Krell audio system with 14 speakers, LED fog lights, a power sunshade for the rear window, manual sunshades for the rear door windows, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated rear outboard seats. A 360-degree surround camera is also standard with the package. The Sport Hybrid-Advance package is rounded out by 19-inch Shark Gray machine-finished alloy wheels.
  1. Exterior Accessories

Say you want to add some extras to your RLX, but don't need the all-wheel drive or want the Krell audio system. For that, Acura offers a slew of optional accessories that can be ordered without a package. Add to the sporty and aggressive appearance of the RLX with body side molding or a decklid spoiler. Protect the edges of the doors from chips with door edge film. An available appliqué for the rear bumper adds extra protection from scratches and paint marring while loading and unloading the trunk. Opt for the 19-inch Dark Chrome-Look alloy wheels, and get wheel locks to protect them. These are all available options individually or in any combination. Available splash guards will prevent kicking up water and mud during inclement weather.
  1. Interior Accessories

Of course, the interior is not left out. Enter with style with the available illuminated door sill trim. Protect RLX's carpets with all-weather floor mats. Premium carpet floor mats with the RLX logo embroidered in them are also available. Even the trunk can be customized in the RLX. An available trunk tray features special contours to protect the trunk lining from anything that could cause damage. A cargo net can be ordered to keep smaller items from rolling all over the place. With the available Sport Hybrid-Advance package and a large selection of available accessories, the 2019 Acura RLX can be easily customized to best suit the owner's taste. Of course, the best way to experience the 2019 RLX and to see how it can be customized for you is to visit Fox Acura of El Paso. Image via acura.com
