2020 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid vs 2020 Audi A6 Quattro near Milwaukee, WI

2020 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid shown above in Radiant Red Metallic.
Hybrid sedans commonly receive negative stigma for being less-than-exciting driving options when put to the test. The 2020 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid is quick to shoot those notions down with its unrelenting performance capabilities and updated technologies. This model even outdoes gas-powered sedans from the luxury segment, which is why we have pitted it against the 2020 Audi A6 Quattro to prove it does not come up short. To see this model in action, make your way to Acura of Brookfield today to hop behind the wheel for a test drive.
Performance
If you are in the market for some serious giddy-up with each tap of the accelerator, then the RLX Sport Hybrid is raring and ready to please. It comes standard with a 3.5L Aluminum-Alloy V6 powertrain that exudes 310 horsepower on its own. When married to the 3-motor hybrid system, these performance specs rocket all the way up to 377 total horsepower1. It accomplishes this by putting one motor in the transmission housing and two additional motivators mounted between the rear wheels! When you spring for the A6 Quattro, you will have to settle for the standard 2.0L TFSI® I4 engine that can only produce 248 horsepower. Even if you upgrade to the 3.0L TFSI® V6 system, you will still only be able to access 335 horsepower, which still leaves a lot to be desired!
Interior
You will feel right at home from the moment you climb into the driver’s seat of the 2020 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid, thanks to its interior accommodations. It comes standard with a 12-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with 4-way power lumbar support to help melt away aches and pains after a long day at the office. When you choose the Audi, you will have an 8-way power adjustment which doesn’t offer quite as much in terms of flexibility. You will always be able to stay current with pertinent details about your drive in the RLX Sport Hybrid, because it boasts a standard Head-Up Display that shows your speed, warning messages, and so much more. Unfortunately, when you opt for the A6 Quattro, you will have to upgrade to a higher trim level to experience this kind of technology.
Safety
Let’s wrap things up by addressing the safety features that line the cabins of each vehicle. To start, the 2020 RLX Sport Hybrid comes standard with AcuraWatch™2, which is a suite of active advancements to keep an eye out for you while you navigate the I-94. This includes Adaptive Cruise Control3, that will maintain a preset distance between you and the vehicle you are trailing, so you don’t collide when traffic appears. Another handy feature that you will appreciate is Lane Keeping Assist4, which will deliver visual and audible alerts when you deviate from your intended course. If these warnings go unheeded, you will gently be pushed back between the lines via corrective steering. When it comes to the Audi A6 Quattro, you will have to shell out extra cash to experience these updates on higher trims!
This comparison between the 2020 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid vs 2020 Audi A6 Quattro near Milwaukee, WI, ends in the vehicle from Acura taking the crown. When you are ready to test drive, make your way to Acura of Brookfield at your earliest convenience.

“ Just purchased a pre-owned Honda Accord from Brian Hoppe at Acura of Brookfield. From the moment I walked through the showroom doors he was very professional and easy to deal with. He answered EVERY question I had. He knew a lot about the vehicle that I was interested in and truly made me feel like a valued customer. No hidden fees or high pressure sales. The whole process was very refreshing! I will be buying more cars from Brian in the future. Highly Recommend!!!! ”

Both times I was treated with attention and respect - it was a great buying experience and pricing was competitive.

“ Brian Hoppe was our salesperson and he was great. He made the purchase smooth from testing the car to purchasing it. Communicating prior to test drive was easy. I sent a message and they reached out and were able to set up an appointment on the same day. No spam calls, just text for communication as we preferred. Upon arrival, Brian was very thoughtful and had warmed up the car for us to test drive. We were able to immediately hop in and test drive without having to worry about warming up the engine or having a hovering salesperson in the backseat. He was not pushy at all, and he didn't have to be. The cars here speak for themselves. You could tell the car was well taken care of and maintained to Acura of Brookfield's high standards. We were able to test drive for a while before confirming the purchase. Although it was past working hours, Brian stayed late to set us up for financing. He took care of us and made sure we had drinks and snacks. The price was reasonable and on top of that Brian set us up with even better financing rates than we had initially hoped for. It was a easy yes. We were able to wrap up signing papers and pick it up the next day which took not even an hour. The car was newly washed, tank full, car warmed up, and parked in front for our convenience. It also had Acura merch plus a little gift. Fun! It made the experience great and throughly seamless. Note, we had been searching for a car for over two months dealing with shady dealerships and salespersons who were pushy and deceptive. This dealership and it's employees were nothing like that. They are honest and fair and hold themselves to high standards when it comes to the quality of their cars. I highly recommend this dealership and Brian Hoppe. ”
