Acura RLX Sport Hybrid Adaptive Cruise Control with Low Speed Follow 2019 Sedan Specification

The 2019 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid Sedan is equipped with an advanced Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system featuring Low Speed Follow, designed to enhance driving convenience and safety. This system utilizes a combination of radar and camera technology to maintain a consistent following interval behind detected vehicles. It operates effectively at various speeds, providing seamless control in both highway and stop-and-go traffic conditions.

Adaptive Cruise Control in the RLX Sport Hybrid allows the driver to set a desired speed and following distance. The system automatically adjusts the vehicle's speed to maintain the preset gap, decelerating or accelerating as needed. The Low Speed Follow feature extends the functionality of ACC by enabling the vehicle to come to a complete stop when traffic halts and then automatically resume following when traffic begins to move again, without requiring driver intervention.

The integration of ACC with Low Speed Follow into the RLX Sport Hybrid leverages the vehicle's hybrid powertrain for smooth and efficient speed adjustments. The electric motors and gasoline engine work in concert to provide responsive acceleration and deceleration, contributing to a refined driving experience.

Safety is further enhanced by the system’s capability to detect and respond to vehicles cutting into the lane, ensuring that the RLX maintains a safe distance at all times. The intuitive interface allows drivers to easily adjust settings and monitor system status through the vehicle’s multi-information display.

Overall, the Adaptive Cruise Control with Low Speed Follow in the 2019 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid exemplifies Acura's commitment to integrating advanced technology for improved driver assistance, comfort, and safety, making it a standout feature in the luxury sedan market.
