Acura RLX

Acura offers two powertrains for its flagship sedan: a standard gas engine and a hybrid. The front-drive RLX puts out 310 hp, but the hybrid is the more compelling model. It employs a gas-powered V-6 driving the front wheels via a seven-speed transmission and electric motor while a pair of separate motors controls the rear wheels. This results in 377 combined horsepower and tenacious grip. Both models deliver swift performance and sporty handling; downsides are bland styling and high prices.
