What do you want to know?
It’s here at last: The Return of Integration of Acura. We did watch with rapid breathing as details drip outand we were debate or not it truly worthy of the name Integrated. But there’s one thing we’ve never really been able to do: Let’s drive it. This week, that changes.
This week, I’m flying to Austin, Texas to attend Acura’s media event for the New Integration. I’ll walk through its steps in what will presumably be a breakfast-taco-based adventure. In the meantime, I’d love to follow up with any questions you may have about the new car. So, what do you want to know?
In a nutshell, the new Integra is based on the current Civic Si. That car is Truly a wonder to see, so expectations are high for its new mate. Integration makes the same (seems to be underrated) 200 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque as the Si and has the same refined six-speed manual transmission (though you can only get the manual on Top Level Integration). It even has adaptive suspension, if that’s your cup of tea.
Sharing the Civic platform means the Integra has similar overall dimensions, including the controversial four-door layout. It wears the current Acura coat, with the addition of embossed “INTEGRA” logos on the front and back. All in all, it’s a sharp looking car.

AstroAI Digital Tire Inflator
Top up your tires before you drive
Don’t risk heading out on the road with tires that are less than perfect. This digital tire inflator gives you an accurate read of your PSI, and lets you top up your tires from home.
Inside, the Integra looks like you’d expect — Civic-based, but tech-heavy. The driver gets a full digital dash, heated and powered front seats, and a plethora of USB ports to plug into each other and see what happens. I imagine this is how ECU tuning works.
So, what do you want to know about Acura’s newest hot hatch? Let me know in the comments, and I’ll answer as many questions as I can after the drive.
