Cool Off with these Refreshing Acura Features
The dog days of summer are here, but Acura makes it easy to stay cool with modern conveniences. Acura goes beyond just really cold air conditioning—it has created models that intelligently manage the sweltering heat of the season. Here are some of our favorite standard and available features that make Acura models an oasis all summer long.*
Comprehensive Controls
Acura passengers can enjoy electric air conditioning systems with intuitive air quality sensors, humidity control, and air filtration. Some models even include tri-zone automatic climate control with humidity control systems, which offer separate temperature and airflow settings for the driver, front passenger, and rear passengers. If desired, the climate zones can be synchronized for a single control. In addition, almost all climate control functions can be operated by voice commands. On those especially sticky days, the humidity control helps remove moisture from the air, giving your Acura a crisp and refreshing feeling.
GPS-Linked Climate Control
Of course, the sun can bake a car like an oven, so Acura offers power or manual rear door side sunshades to beat the heat. But it gets better—the RLX comes with technology that can counteract the heat of the sun. A solar sensor measures the sun’s intensity while the Acura Navigation System’s GPS receiver tracks the sun’s position. The automatic climate control system uses this sensory input to adjust air conditioning output, efficiently cooling the car, and maintaining a comfortable cabin temperature.
Ventilated Seats
With the available Advance Package, Acura's Milano Leather seats can include six levels of personal climate control with three levels of ventilation. The perforations in the leather wick air away from the occupant, quickly cooling to a comfortable temperature. This feature is putting an end to the days of sticking to your seat every time you get in and getting out with a puddle of sweat behind your back.
Connected Comfort
As your vehicle sits in the sun, it gets hotter and hotter. Thanks to the latest in Acura connectivity, drivers can enjoy a pre-conditioned cabin before they even open the car door. From as far as 328 feet away, drivers can use their fob to start the engine remotely, and vehicles with automatic climate control will set themselves to 72 degrees, ensuring their interiors are close to your desired setting. Forget the breathtaking heat of getting in a car that's been sitting outside in the sun all day and step into comfort.
