Power comes from a direct-injected and turbocharged 2.0-liter, mated to the segment&#8217;s only 10-speed automatic transmission (10AT). Peak output of 272 horsepower (SAE net) and 280 lb.-ft. of torque (SAE net) bests RDX&#8217;s key competitors. With available Super Handling All-Wheel Drive\u2122 (SH-AWD\u00ae), the RDX is capable of distributing up to 70-percent of torque to the rear wheels and up to 100-percent of that torque to either the right-rear or left-rear wheel, creating incredible control and agility.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The RDX also features the latest generation of AcuraLink\u2122, which offers in-vehicle 4GLTE Wi-Fi, available over-the-air software updates and a wide array of cloud-based services.
