The Acura RLX's braking system utilizes a combination of disc brakes, electronic assist, and in the RLX Sport Hybrid, regenerative braking. The RLX Sport Hybrid features an electric servo brake system that enhances regenerative braking, while the standard RLX uses a vacuum booster for braking. All models come standard with Brake Hold Control, Electronic Brake Distribution, Brake Assist, and Vehicle Stability Assist.

Both the standard RLX and the RLX Sport Hybrid use disc brakes for stopping power.
This system maximizes the effectiveness of regenerative braking, contributing to fuel efficiency.
The front-wheel-drive RLX utilizes a vacuum booster to assist the driver in applying brake pressure.
This feature holds the car stationary without the need to press the brake pedal.
This system optimizes brake pressure distribution to the wheels for enhanced braking performance.
This system helps the driver to apply more pressure to the brakes when needed, especially in emergency braking situations.
This system helps maintain vehicle control during braking by applying brakes to individual wheels as needed.
This feature applies brakes on the inside wheels during cornering to improve handling.
Acura RLX brake pads typically last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, depending on driving habits.
The Sport Hybrid's regenerative braking system helps slow the vehicle down and recapture energy, improving fuel economy.
Regular brake maintenance, including pad and rotor checks, is crucial for optimal braking performance and safety.
NRS Brakes has developed galvanized brake pads specifically for the RLX hybrid, addressing the unique challenges of regenerative braking.
