Acura Integra (2023)

The 2023 Acura Integra returns one of the brand's most iconic nameplates to the

The 2023 Acura Integra returns one of the brand's most iconic nameplates to the Acura lineup, bringing a premium driving experience and a sleek liftback design to a new generation of enthusiast drivers. A premium sport compact inspired by the fun-to-drive spirit of previous Integras, the all-new Integra is the new performance gateway to the Acura brand delivering class-leading driving dynamics and engaging performance.

The first generation Integra helped launch the Acura brand in 1986 and continued over four-generations, from 1986-2006, offering premium performance and exceptional value. As the first turbocharged Integra from the factory, the new generation adds further momentum to Acura's Precision Crafted Performance brand direction. Along with a high-output 1.5-liter VTEC turbo engine and sport-tuned chassis, Integra is the only car in its segment with an available manual transmission for an even more exhilarating driving experience.

Acura Integra also is the only 5-door liftback in its class, offering a large and flexible cargo area and superior rear seat legroom with a sleek coupe-like profile and sporty stance. With design and packaging inspired by previous Integras, including the original that helped launch the Acura brand in 1986, the 2023 Integra features an all-new design.

Sporty and personal, Acura Integra's distinctive driver-focused interior design creates distinct environments for the driver and passenger. Standard features include a 10.2-inch Acura Precision Cockpit™ digital gauge display, and Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility. A wireless smart phone charger, a head-up display, and a 530-watt 16-speaker ELS STUDIO 3D® premium audio system custom tailored for Integra's unique listening environment are available.

Importantly, Integra also sets a new benchmark for both active and passive safety technology in the premium compact class with Acura's stiff Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, cutting-edge airbag designs and an updated AcuraWatch™ suite of active safety and driver-assistive technologies. Groundbreaking first-in-segment front airbags for the driver and front passenger are designed to reduce the risk of traumatic brain and neck injuries. Rear seat side airbags are standard.

The 2023 Integra is offered in three trim levels: Integra, A-Spec® and A-Spec with Technology Package.

Performance Proportions and Design

With design and packaging inspired by previous Integras, including the original that helped launch the Acura brand in 1986, Integra's exterior dimensions follow the timeless adage of long, low, and wide. With a dramatically sloping roofline, the 2023 Acura Integra is a sleek 5-door liftback just like the original Integra, combining a coupe-like profile with a large and easily accessible cargo area.

Thin windshield pillars, door-mounted mirrors and a low cowl offer excellent outward visibility. Integra also cuts a sporty profile with one of the lowest rooflines in its segment for a premium and youthful image, while still offering top-class interior space. Ultimately, Integra's styling yields a wide, purposeful, sporty stance and impressive road presence.

Premium Design Details

Immediately recognizable as a member of the modern Acura family, all of Integra's body panels are unique. Up front, its wide-set headlights flank a new frameless interpretation of Acura's Diamond Pentagon grille design, previously seen on the TLX Type S Concept, and finished in gloss black.

Acura Integra's four-element JewelEye® LED headlights incorporate high and low beams within a simple, slender housing. Accenting the design is the Chicane™ daytime running light, which sweeps under the side reflector and side marker, for the signature Acura look. The Chicane™ design is echoed in Integra's wide single piece LED taillights. Integra also uses a new fine-cut taillight lens that produces an even distribution of light, giving Integra's rear end a premium look.

The front fascia's wide lower opening feeds air to the turbocharger's intercooler. On A-Spec® grades the lower fascia is trimmed in gloss black and flanked by LED fog lights. From the rear, Integra's wider rear track and dual, wide-set exhaust finishers emphasize the swell of its rear wheel arches. Harkening back to the iconic 3rd generation model, Integra is once again embossed in the front and rear fascias.

Standard chrome side window trim is replaced with matte black on A-Spec® grades, with the low windowsill contributing to an expansive greenhouse for excellent outward visibility. Exterior sculpting details include scalloped lower door sections, and a character line that begins at the front fascia and travels upward to underscore the rearmost quarter window.

Wind-Cheating Aerodynamics

Acura Integra's aerodynamic performance has been optimized for minimal lift and drag, while also minimizing wind noise. A new upper grille mesh streamlines airflow into the engine compartment, and fascia inlets form air curtains around the front wheels, smoothing the air flow. Strakes in front of the front and rear wheels also help guide air around the tires, reducing Integra's side wake.

Hidden under the front fascia is a chin spoiler that reduces airflow under the body, and underneath are panels directing the air that does flow under the car. The extended rear lower fascia and the upturned trailing edge of the tailgate reduce rear lift, a benefit increased by 50% with a rear spoiler on Integra A-Spec®.

Two Wheel Designs

Standard 10-spoke, 17-inch alloy wheel with a machined face wears 215/50R17 all-season performance tires. Integra A-Spec® features 18-inch alloy wheels finished in Shark Gray. The split five-spoke design is wrapped in 235/40R18 all-season performance tires. A variety of 19-inch wheel designs also are available through Acura Genuine Accessories.

A-Spec®

In addition to 18-inch wheels and tires, Integra A-Spec® features unique, eye-catching trim. The lower front grille is finished in gloss black, and fog lights are standard. The surround on the side windows is matte black, and A-Spec® badges adorn the front fenders. In the rear is another A-Spec® badge, as well as gloss black on the diffuser. A-Spec® Integras also come standard with a gloss black rear spoiler, which helps reduce rear-end lift at higher speeds an additional 50%.

Exterior Colors

Acura Integra is available in six distinct colors, including Performance Red Pearl, Apex Blue Pearl, Platinum White Pearl, Lunar Silver Metallic, Liquid Carbon Metallic and Majestic Black Pearl.

1.5-liter Turbo Engine

The 2023 Acura Integra is the first-ever factory turbocharged Integra. Under its aluminum hood is a VTEC®-enhanced DOHC 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 200 horsepower and 192 lb.-ft. of torque (SAE net). Peak torque occurs from 1800-5000 rpm, providing a quick punch off the line and out of tight corners. At the top of the tach, the engine maintains high output between its 200-hp SAE net power peak at 6000 rpm. The engine's 133.3 hp per liter is the highest specific output in its competitive segment.

The high output small displacement engine features a high-efficiency turbocharger, optimized turbo piping, Variable Timing Control (VTC) on both cams, Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control (VTEC®) on the exhaust valves and a 4-2 exhaust port/manifold cast into the cylinder head. A rigid crankshaft and oil pan minimize unpleasant vibrations in the 300-600 Hz range. More details on the 1.5-liter turbo are available here.

A coil-type exhaust system adds an emotional exhaust sound that further enhances Integra's engaging driving experience. This high-flow exhaust system helps Integra maximize horsepower and provides a satisfying growl under acceleration that doesn't intrude at lighter throttle applications.

Segment-Exclusive 6-Speed Manual Transmission

Unique in its segment, Integra is available with a close-ratio, short throw 6-speed manual transmission with automatic rev matching. With a 430 m/s response time (Sport Mode), the Rev Match system "blips" the throttle when it detects a downshift, quickly and perfectly matching revs every time. And for those who prefer to do it themselves, the feature can be turned off.

For an even sportier feel, manual transmission-equipped Integras have an even snappier engine response thanks to an even more aggressive throttle map and a lightweight single-mass flywheel. To maximize available traction when accelerating, the 6-speed routes power to Acura Integra's front wheels through a helical limited-slip differential.

Integra's manual transmission features a rigid aluminum exterior case, high-capacity ball bearings, stiff gear shafts, and high torque capacity. A constant-mesh helical reverse gear mechanism significantly reduces noise when reverse is selected.

Sport-Tuned Continuously Variable Transmission

For drivers who prefer to let the car do the shifting, Integra's standard continuously variable transmission (CVT) is tuned for driving enjoyment. With a short final-drive ratio, the CVT provides excellent response, especially when accelerating from a stop.

Under acceleration, Integra's CVT activates the Step-Shift function. The CVT is programmed to control engine speeds in "steps," similar to a traditional automatic transmission, giving drivers a familiar linear audible cue for a better sense of acceleration. Drivers also can manually select gear ratios with the standard paddle shifters located on the steering wheel.

Automatic downshift control adds engine braking when going downhill and improves engine response during spirited driving. When the driver presses the brake pedal the CVT selects an appropriate lower ratio, maintaining a higher engine speed. This creates stronger engine braking and improves engine response when acceleration resumes. The higher engine speed continues until the driver resumes a cruise or neutral throttle condition.

Integra's G-Design CVT reduces the "rpm-led" feel of some CVTs, when the acceleration feel comes after the increase in engine speed. G-Design reduces this "rubber band effect" in the new Integra with increased engine torque and improved turbocharger response. The result is stronger acceleration at lower engine speeds, giving the engine more natural-feeling acceleration that follows the driver's foot.

Suspension Tuned for Drivers

Acura Integra's sport-tuned independent suspension, precise steering and powerful brakes deliver class-leading driving dynamics and engaging performance, along with a comfortable ride. Its 107.7-inch wheelbase is longer than its European competitors, contributing to a smooth and stable ride. Its wide stance, with staggered front 60.5-inch and rear 61.6-inch tracks, adds stability.

A MacPherson strut front suspension is attached to an aluminum front subframe with an efficient truss and rib structure for rigidity and stability. A 27.0 mm hollow front stabilizer bar contributes to Integra's flat cornering characteristics.

Exceptional care was taken to reduce friction in the suspension and steering system to improve handling and ride comfort, reducing harsh impact shock and noise. A tempering process that heat-treats the lower ball joints on the front suspension reduces the surface pressure between the ball and resin ball seat. The front damper mount also uses a low-friction seat and optimizes the axis of the spring and damper.

Mounted on a rigid subframe, the multi-link rear suspension provides stable, yet agile handling. A standard solid 17.5 mm, or 18 mm (A-Spec grades) stabilizer bar also contributes. Harshness is minimized by a large rear compliance bushing with more damping force on the front end of the trailing arm. The bushings on the back side of the lower rear suspension arms increase ride comfort, while promoting better straight-line stability and turn in.

Adaptive Damper System

An available Adaptive Damper System (ADS), controlled through the standard Integrated Dynamics System (IDS), provides even more precise control of Integra's ride and handling with distinct damping characteristics in Comfort, Normal and Sport driving modes.

Variable-Ratio Electric Power Steering

Integra's dual-pinion electronic power steering (EPS) provides excellent feedback, and its low-friction characteristics aid straight-line stability and intuitive response. The system provides substantially improved feel compared to a single-pinion system by using the physical steering input from the driver as well as from a supplemental electric motor. A non-contact torque sensor measures the driver's steering effort, and an ECU determines how much electric motor assist to add, with the result being seamless, natural feeling steering.

Acura Integra's EPS system also features variable gear ratio for comfortable responses near center and quicker, sportier feel with increasing steering angle, yielding intuitive response at all speeds for a sporty and confident character.

Powerful Brakes

Integra features large 12.3-inch diameter ventilated front brake rotors and 11.1-inch diameter solid rotors in the rear, incorporating Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist as standard equipment. The system provides a comfortable and refined feel at low speeds, with predictable and easy operation. Yet, powerful, reassuring brake performance is ready when the driving gets serious

Integrated Dynamics System

Every Integra comes standard with Acura's Integrated Dynamics System (IDS), which gives the driver the option of distinct driving modes tuned for specific driving situations. IDS features Comfort, Normal and Sport modes, which control various parameters including steering assist, transmission and throttle response, Idle Stop, and gauge color.

On Acura Integra A-Spec® with the Technology Package, the Integrated Dynamics System also adjusts the Adaptive Damper System (ADS), adds Active Sound Control (ASC) and a user-programmable Individual mode.

High-Rigidity Body Structure

Fundamental to Integra's outstanding ride quality, handling and crash performance is its enhanced global architecture and exceptionally rigid body structure.

More than one-third of Integra's body construction consists of aluminum, resin, with hot stamp and high-strength steel used strategically to increase strength. To minimize weight gain, the hood is aluminum, along with the front bumper beam, which features a new cross section that improves strength while minimizing the overall amount of material required.

Extensive use of structural adhesive is used throughout the body structure to add strength while minimizing weight gain. The adhesive is applied where spot welds are performed, combining the strength of the weld and the broader surface area of the adhesive to increase the stiffness of the joint. This reduces the need for additional sheet metal thickness or welded-on reinforcements.

Hot stamp steel is used on the door and windshield frames, with high-strength steel used in the door sills and body cross members. Not only does the application of these materials increase rigidity for improved handling and a quiet ride, it also improves crash safety performance with Integra's Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE®) body structure.

Integra's floor strength is enhanced via lattice frame members and by joining the front and rear ends of the center tunnel to the dashboard lower and rear crossmember. Circular frames are used around the engine compartment strut towers and behind the rear seats; the resulting stiffness helps achieve a better balance of front-rear rigidity, which helps improve steering feel and precision.

Premium Cabin

Centered around the concept of an "evocative experience", Acura Integra's cabin is sporty and personal, featuring distinct environments for driver and passenger, and high-quality materials and switchgear. All touch points impart a premium feel. On the right side of the center console, a distinctive soft pad design envelops the passenger. Ambient LED interior lighting creates an alluring contrast. Depending on trim level, Integra interiors are available in ebony, red, orchid, or graystone.

Interior ergonomics combine easy to understand information with natural-feeling controls. The center display is placed on the upper part of the instrument panel, allowing the driver to gain information with limited eye movement, but without impeding forward visibility. All controls, including the climate system and shifter, are positioned in the driver's natural functional flow, allowing intuitive operation with minimal movement. The action and spring force of each control also was carefully considered and optimized for a premium feel.

A-Spec® & Technology Packages

For drivers opting for the A-Spec® package, the interior receives multiple unique touches including the A-Spec® logo on the steering wheel and door scuff plates. An ebony headliner and stainless-steel pedals impart a sporty look, as does the dark metallic finish on the dash trim. An 8-way power driver seat is also included, and there is contrast stitching on the steering wheel, seats, gear selector and shift boot and the gauges feature red needles rather than white.

Combining the Technology package with A-Spec adds color-matched microsuede inserts on the front seats with 12-way power, including lumbar support for the driver, and 4-way power adjustment for the front passenger. The front doors also feature LED "line" illumination.

Body Stabilizing Front Seats

All Integras feature an advanced Body Stabilizing front seat design that uses multiple internal structures to provide improved support across the entire body, enhancing comfort on long drives. This includes a special mat below the cushion that supports the area from the pelvis to the lumbar spine for a more stable and solid seating feel.

An inner frame on the seat bottom stabilizes the hip to reduce movement and posture changes regardless of the various G forces experienced while driving. The curve of the seat bottom leaves no gap between the seat and thighs to prevent sliding forward, which couples with the internal structure to reduce forward and lateral pelvic tilt that can lead to fatigue and discomfort on long drives. The seat also centers the upper body over the pelvis, helping to stabilize the upper arms and the driver's eyesight, making it easier to drive.

Large and Flexible Cargo Space

Integra's class-exclusive five-door body gives it a distinct edge in cargo capacity compared to its rivals. The 24.3 cu.-ft. of cargo space behind the rear seatbacks and its broad flat floor easily accommodate two 29-inch suitcases. To support active lifestyles, and carry larger gear like a mountain bike, Integra's rear seatbacks fold flat to greatly expand the available space.

Standard Digital Instrumentation

Acura Integra's high level of standard technology includes a 10.2-inch Acura Precision Cockpit™ digital instrument display. Acura Precision Cockpit™ features a high-definition full-color panel displaying a variety of information, customizable from the steering wheel.

Customizable areas on the left and right side of the display also convey information to the driver. The left side of the screen is dedicated to audio and telephone information, which the driver can select using the left-side steering wheel controls. The right side is dedicated to driving-related information such as activating or deactivating various AcuraWatch™ functions, or displaying vehicle information, which the driver selects using the right-side steering wheel controls.

Vehicle functions, including a numerical speed readout, are displayed between the speedometer and tachometer. This graphic meter also communicates AcuraWatch™ operating status in an easy-to-understand manner, with a rear bird's eye view of Integra, and an accurate view of the surroundings, including curves in the road and the lane position of cars ahead. The display also uses a motorcycle and box truck as options to express "other vehicles" ahead. In a fun surprise-and-delight feature, the brake lights, headlights and turn signals of the Integra vehicle icon turn on and off with those functions.

Standard 7-Inch Touchscreen

Standard on Integra and Integra A-Spec® is a 7-inch touchscreen system with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility through a well-placed and easily accessed 2.5A USB-A port. Eight speakers are strategically located around the cabin, including tweeters mounted on the windshield pillars.

The system also features large physical controls to maximize ease of use and minimize the risk of driver distraction. On the left side is a physical power/volume knob, with a tuning/selection knob on the right side. At the bottom is a row of hard buttons for many functions, including skipping music tracks, navigating the audio menu, and selecting between phone, radio, Bluetooth® or USB media.

A fast processor results in quick response to touch inputs. To make it easier to use the switches and touchscreen when the vehicle is in motion, the screen is recessed slightly from the edge of the dash, resulting in a finger rest that allows the user to steady their hand while making selections.

Available 9-Inch HD Touchscreen

Integra A-Spec® with Technology Package features a high-definition 9-inch color touchscreen system with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, along with Qi-compatible wireless charging. There are two USB ports in the front, including a 2.5A USB-A and 3.0A USB-C, plus two more 2.5A USB-A ports at the rear of the center console for easy reach by rear seat passengers.

Designed to be easy to use, the 9-inch system also features a volume knob, large physical buttons, easy-to-recognize icons, and a finger rest to make it easy to use the touchscreen while the vehicle is in motion. Its fast processor results in lag-free performance, and the simple navigation structure and screen layouts results in reduced time to complete a task.

Up to six user-defined shortcuts are displayed at the bottom of the screen. Smart Shortcuts are an automatic assistant function that enables the user to execute frequently used actions quickly and with fewer steps. The system uses machine learning to predict and propose user preferences based on the track record of the user's actions and behaviors.

By pressing the icon on the home screen, the system displays frequently used commands, such as "Home" address, frequently visited places, a list of favorite radio programs, redials for received calls or calling a person on the "Favorite" list. For example, with one action, the system can call up the names of people the user calls frequently, eliminating the need to look them up in a directory. These shortcuts are stored on the Smart Shortcut menu, and a unique profile is created for each respective user.

Also included with the 9-inch system is the cloud-based speech recognition assistant, Alexa, integrated with the vehicle. With simple voice commands, drivers can ask Alexa to find and navigate to a specific address or point of interest, play music, call contacts saved to the Alexa account, listen to audiobooks, check the news and weather, control smart home devices and more - all while keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. Acura Integra customers can access tens of thousands of Alexa Skills inside the vehicle, providing a seamless Alexa experience whether they're on the road or at home. Alexa functionality requires either an AT&T mobile hotspot subscription or connection to a mobile hotspot through the user's smartphone.

ELS STUDIO 3D® Premium Sound

Integra A-Spec® with Technology Package also features an ELS STUDIO 3D® premium audio system for a powerful listening experience with studio-quality sound. The 16-speaker system includes two Highline™ ultra-slim overhead speakers mounted above the driver and passenger, a center-channel speaker to the dash, mid-range units in each front door behind metal speaker grilles, two satellite speakers in the rearmost pillar and a subwoofer in the cargo area.

An upgraded external amplifier with patented Acoustic Motion Control™ provides 530 watts of system power, delivered through 12 discrete channels. Neural Surround circuitry can extract surround sound from any digital source for an enhanced and immersive 5.1 surround experience.

This sophisticated speaker array offers multi-zone audio, with selectable speaker level optimization. The system allows optimized privacy sound zones for the driver, the front, or rear seats. In addition, the 3D system is fully integrated with the Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® phone system to use the overhead speakers for a new level of hands-free phone clarity.

The HUD projects a broad range of customizable information on the lower portion of the windshield in the driver's line of sight. The driver can adjust the location (up and down) and the brightness of the projection. Display modes include vehicle speed, AcuraWatch™ mode and function, and Traffic Sign Recognition.

AcuraLink® Cloud-Based Services

Integra A-Spec® with Technology Package features the new generation of AcuraLink® that debuted in the 2022 MDX. Acura's cloud-based connected car system is designed to keep Integra owners informed and connected while on the go. AcuraLink® features capabilities that include emergency roadside assistance, remote locking/unlocking and remote engine start (with CVT), stolen vehicle tracking, remote diagnostics, geo-fencing, speed tracking and more. Additionally, Acura Integra owners also can use the AcuraLink® Skill for Alexa inside the home for remote voice control of vehicle functions such as remote start, locking and unlocking the doors, and more.

The connectivity required for the various AcuraLink® features is distributed between the embedded system and the owner's compatible smartphone and data package.

AcuraLink® has three available levels of services, a complimentary Basic Package and two subscription-based levels:

Advanced Compatibility Engineering ™ (ACE™) Body Structure

Integra sets a new benchmark for both active and passive safety technology in the premium compact class. Integra uses the latest version of Acura's Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, which has been designed to meet the future NHTSA oblique crash test standard, in addition to achieving top-level scores in current NHTSA and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) crash tests.

The latest version of Acura's ACE™ body structure is designed to protect vehicle occupants and improve crash compatibility between vehicles of varying sizes, such as an SUV and a small car, and occupant protection in angled frontal collisions. The front of the structure features a special upper member, windshield pillar, side frame and lower firewall structure designed to route crash energy around the cabin, especially in oblique impacts.

Advanced Airbag and Seatbelt Technologies

In a segment first, Integra uses new driver and front passenger airbags specifically designed to reduce head rotation in a collision, especially an oblique collision. The driver's airbag uses an innovative donut-shaped structure to cradle and hold the head, mitigating rotation and reducing the likelihood of brain injury.

On the passenger side, Integra uses technology functionally similar to that pioneered on the 2021 Acura TLX, as well as the fourth-generation MDX. A three-chamber airbag design achieves a similar result. The three chambers inflate separately, with the two outer chambers that extend above the main chamber designed to cradle the head and control rotation.

Acura Integra further benefits from standard driver and front passenger knee airbags and rear outboard side impact airbags. Along with side curtain airbags and side impact airbags for both driver and front passenger, Integra features a total of 10 airbags.

Seatbelt technology includes outer lap belt pretensioners and load limiters on front seatbelts, with a selectable load limiter used on the driver's side, designed to help prevent chest injuries. In the rear, pretensioners are used in both outboard positions, along with load limiters. Integra also features a rear seatbelt reminder, which informs the driver if a rear seat occupant is not properly buckled up.

Pedestrian Protection

Integra also features multiple technologies designed to prevent and mitigate pedestrian injuries through both collision mitigation and collision avoidance. The standard AcuraWatch™ suite of driver assistive and safety technologies has been engineered to detect pedestrians, warning the driver, or even applying the brakes to help prevent a collision.

Should a collision occur, Integra features an embossed hood frame structure under the panel's lightweight aluminum skin. This structure can transmit the impact of a pedestrian's head across a wider area, helping to reduce the severity of an injury, while allowing a smaller clearance between the hood and the engine. Additionally, the front bumper has been redesigned to prevent or reduce lower leg fractures, and ligament injuries to the knee, in frontal impacts

Improved AcuraWatch™

Acura Integra's standard AcuraWatch™ suite uses a new single camera mounted behind the windshield, coupled with an exceptionally fast processor, rather than separate millimeter-wave radar and camera systems.

This new single-camera system features a 100-degree field of view capable of detecting feature points of a target and recognizing attributes such as a vehicles or pedestrians. With the use of the fast processor, the system measures distance and the lateral position of objects based on the change in the size of the target object, how long it took for the change to occur, and speed of the vehicle. This enables the camera to recognize white lines, road boundaries such as curbs, other vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists and road signs.

In foul weather, the system parameters allow operation even when the windshield wipers are operating at mid or high speeds, as long as the camera can detect objects. In addition, a heater prevents fogging of the windshield in front of the camera in cold weather. The system software also has been programmed to continue providing assistance, even in foggy weather.

AcuraWatch™ functions include:

Additional Driver Assistive Technologies

Additional driver assistive technologies include a standard blind spot information (BSI) system. Using radar installed on the rear corners of the vehicle to detect vehicles approaching from the rear, BSI signals the driver with a visual and audible warning. The BSI range extends to approximately 80 feet behind Integra to provide advanced warning in certain conditions. For instance, if a vehicle approaches from diagonally behind, and at a significantly different relative speed considered by the system to be a potential risk of contact, it will alert the driver when it comes into range.

Included with A-Spec® with Technology Package are four sonar sensors installed on the front of the vehicle, and four on the back that significantly improve the detection of non-metallic objects that could be missed by the millimeter wave radar, such as glass and external exterior walls. This enables the implementation of Low-Speed Braking Control to reduce the likelihood of low-speed collisions, such as in parking situations. When equipped with a CVT, this also includes front and rear false-start prevention.

Manufacturing

Production of the 2023 Integra will mark the first time Integra is built in America, to begin soon in Marysville, Ohio, on the same production line as the Acura TLX. Acura Integra's engine is made exclusively at the Anna Engine Plant in Ohio, which also produces the turbo V6 that powers TLX Type S, MDX Type S, and the 600-horsepower twin-turbo V6 of the NSX Type S supercar.
