Debuts from the Chicago Auto Show

2009 Acura RL

Showing off a fresh new face for 2009, the key word used during the Chicago launch of Acura’s revamped flagship sedan was “dynamic’’ – as in more dynamic styling, performance and technology throughout. More flair was added mechanically as well, with a bigger, snappier 3.7-liter V-6 and tweaks to the transmission, suspension and steering.

Beyond Acura’s high-tech “Super Handling All Wheel Drive" system, the RL boasts the AcuraLink navigation system that also gives drivers real-time weather and traffic data. Look for the RL’s new styling theme to find its way into updates set for the TL and TSX sedans later this year. -- John Clor
