new body-colored lower side sills, splash guards, an all-new

Performance
Looming large under the hood of the 2002 Acura
RL Sedan is an impressive 3.5-litre, 24-valve, six-cylinder
engine that produces a scorching 225 horsepower and 231
lb-ft of torque thanks to a silencer in the variable exhaust
system. The engine is built with platinum-tipped spark plugs
and a long-life timing belt.
The Acura RL's standard transmission is a computer-controlled
four-speed automatic that shifts smoothly and efficiently,
with just the right timing. A double-wishbone suspension
delivers a smooth and quiet ride, while the sixteen-inch
all-season tires grip the road for tight cornering. Each
vehicle is equipped with sixteen-inch aluminum alloy wheels.

control, ABS brakes, side impact door beams, rigid body
structure, and front and rear crumple zones. As well, every
vehicle is equipped with a driver depowered air bag, passenger
depowered air bag, and side impact air bags.
