This is a premium quality with an evocative five-door design and a spirit of driving pleasure. Sporty compact car. The first factory turbocharged Integra will stimulate the interest of a new generation of enthusiast drivers with an available six-speed manual transmission, limited-slip differential and high-output 1.5-liter engine (and of course VTEC®) .

"Integra is one of the most iconic models in Acura's history," said Jon Ikeda, Acura's vice president and brand officer. "This new Integra will continue to maintain the original unique, desirable but achievable market position, with emotional expression and style, combined with the versatility and practicality sought by today's buyers."

The new Integra is designed in Japan, and its bold exterior styling uses a significantly slanted roof line and hatchback tailgate, giving it a unique coupe-like road atmosphere. As a modern interpretation of the Integra series, the fifth-generation models display iconic signs, such as the embossed Integra name, under the headlights on the driver's side and the taillights on the passenger's side.

Acura's new frameless diamond pentagonal grille appeared for the first time on the Type S concept car, giving the Integra a purposeful and sporty front. Acura’s unique lighting logo has been updated to the “Chicane” LED daytime running lights, which are now located above Integra’s JewelEye® LED headlights for a more eye-catching appearance.

The muscular rear wheel arches and aggressive rear fascia with dual exhaust trim accentuate Integra's wide track. Inspired by the previous Integra models, the unique tail shape uses a large integrated taillight with a matching "Chicane" light logo. Behind Integra Prototype's matte-finished 19-inch split five-spoke wheels are oversized Brembo™ high-performance brakes and colorful Indian yellow calipers that provide incredible stopping power and an aggressive appearance.
