    CNET Review

    October 20, 2008

    The Good: The 2009 Acura RL offers excellent voice control across its full complement of interior configurations, an advanced all-wheel-drive system, great cruising manners, and good overall efficiency.

    The Bad: The exterior-styling makeover won't appeal to everyone's tastes, and despite some additional new features for 2009, the cabin electronics interface sorely needs an update.

    The Bottom Line: The 2009 Acura RL remains at the cutting edge in terms of features, and while not necessarily sporting, its performance and ride are very smooth. Interior electronics are due for at least a face-lift, however.
