AcuraLink App

If you like having everything on the cloud available to you with the touch of a button, then you will love AcuraLink. AcuraLink is a system that is included free for three years in all new RLX, MDX, and TLX Acura models that allows you to connect to various apps in a seamless and easy manner. AcuraLink The Next Generation provides you with the power of the cloud while you are driving.

Available Packages

There are three different packages available. The AcuraLink Standard Package is the basic package that is complimentary for three years. However, there are two other packages: the AcuraLink Connect Package and the AcuraLink Premium Package. These two options cost a bit more than the standard package but they also come with more capability than the standard package. The Connect Package offers everything that the Standard Package offers and the Premium Package offers everything that the Standard and Connect Packages offer. While you will pay for these additional packages, you can get a better rate for the packages when you purchase them for multiple years. Additionally, you can get a 90 day free trial of the full suite of services by asking AcuraLink support for more information.
