Overview
The individuals who thought the restored Acura Integra wasn't sufficiently lively — that incorporates us — will be satisfied to discover that another 320-hp Type S rendition has joined the arrangement for 2024. Similarly as the standard Integra imparts a large number to the Honda Community, the Integra Type S has shared traits with the City Type R hot hatchback, including its turbocharged 2.0-liter four-chamber motor, six-speed manual transmission, and restricted slip differential. It looks more forceful too and the Sort S's wearing demeanor procured it a 2024 10Best honor. Aside from the Kind S, the standard Integra is a lovely premium hatchback. However it's not exactly as rich as a few German opponents, for example, the Audi A3 and the Mercedes-Benz CLA-class, its roomy freight region provides it with an additional proportion of reasonableness, and it offers a good incentive.
What's New for 2024?
The 320-hp Type S is new to the Integra arrangement for 2024. Considerably more impressive, better to drive, and cooler-looking than the base vehicle, the Sort S joins other Acura execution variations in the TLX and MDX lines that likewise wear this identification. If not, we don't anticipate that the base Integra should include any significant changes for its second model year.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
The cost of the 2024 Acura Integra begins at $32,995 and goes up to $51,995 relying upon the trim and choices.
We think the Sort S addresses the best version of Integra, yet in the event that you can't manage the cost of its $51,995 beginning value, the A-Spec Innovation trim is our other most loved rendition. Both the Sort S and the A-Spec trim levels accompany a six-speed manual transmission, and that is the arrangement we like.
Motor, Transmission, and Execution
The standard-issue Integra is fueled by a 200-hp turbocharged 1.5-liter four-chamber motor acquired from the Honda Metro Si. These 200-hp models are front-wheel drive and come norm with a ceaselessly factor programmed transmission (CVT), yet A-Spec models can be had with a discretionary six-speed manual transmission and a restricted slip differential. The Sort S has an essentially more impressive 320-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four with 310 pound-feet of force. Like the Metro Type R, the Sort S utilizes a six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. At our test track, our six-speed manual A-Spec test vehicle hit 60 mph in 7.0 seconds; the A-Spec with the CVT was 0.1 second more slow to 60 mph. Versatile dampers for the suspension are accessible too, and the A-Spec model adds a Singular mode to the Integra's drive-mode selector switch, which permits drivers to save a modified setting. During our underlying test drive, we viewed the Integra as energetic and light-footed. The guiding is vigorously weighted and satisfyingly immediate, and the versatile dampers permit the driver to pick between three settings that change the vehicle's ride and dealing with disposition. The Solace setting gives the smoothest, mildest ride; Game mode firms up the dealing with; and Ordinary mode compromises between the two. Outside sound is excessively apparent, nonetheless, and we wish Acura had coordinated more sound-stifling materials. Concerning the Sort S's exhibition, it demonstrated nearly as fast as the Community Type R, hurdling to 60 mph in 5.1 seconds at our test track. All Type S models accompany a bunch of 19-inch wheels with summer tires, bigger Brembo brakes, and an exceptional exhaust framework with three focus mounted exhaust pipes.
Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
As indicated by the EPA, the most proficient Integra model is the base vehicle with the CVT, which is appraised for 30 mpg city and 37 mpg roadway. The Integra's key adversary, the Audi A3, is evaluated at 29 mpg city and 38 mpg parkway. Move forward to the A-Spec trim with the manual transmission, and efficiency gauges tumble to 26 mpg city and 36 mpg parkway. On our 75-mph interstate efficiency course, our programmed test vehicle figured out how to surpass its EPA rating, accomplishing 38 mpg. The Sort S accomplishes lower efficiency quantities of 21 mpg city and 28 mpg thruway because of its bigger, all the more remarkable motor; on our expressway circle, the Sort S model returned a noteworthy 31 mpg.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
In spite of the fact that there's a lot of parts imparting to the Honda Community under the skin, Acura has made a nice showing of making the lodge check home in the brand's setup out. It pulls styling components from the TLX and RDX SUV. Warmed sport seats enclosed by fake calfskin upholstery are standard and element eight-way power changes for the driver; A-Spec models with the discretionary Innovation bundle add false softened cowhide supplements to the front seats as well as 12-way power changes for the driver and four-way power changes for the front traveler. The back seat is sufficiently roomy to fit two grown-ups serenely, yet the absence of elements, for example, back air vents and seat radiators are striking oversights in an evidently exceptional vehicle. While the standard Integra offers a back seat with a thin center seat, the Sort S model rather offers two container seats and a little mid control area armrest.
Infotainment and Network
A 10.2-inch computerized measure group is standard across the Integra setup and is reconfigurable to give data to the driver in an assortment of show modes. The Integra accompanies a 7.0-inch infotainment show as standard and a bigger 9.0-inch unit accessible as a choice. Both swear off the disappointing touchpad regulator found in other Acura items. The bigger touchscreen is important for the Innovation bundle accessible for A-Spec models, which likewise incorporates a remote cell phone charging cushion, a 5.3-inch head-up show, and three USB-C charging ports dabbing the lodge. All models include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, however just vehicles with the Innovation bundle offer remote cell phone reflecting.
