What the Critics Say
The Honda Civic Type R is an absolute blast, and we love it to death. But the new Acura Integra Type S gives the same thrills to nearly the same degree in a more grown-up package that we could live with for the long haul.” — Car and Driver
Leave the track for the street, and it plays the same tune. With only 320 horsepower to its name, the Type S hangs with supercars on public roads, even with the stability and traction control fully on. The brakes are as confidence-inspiring, the pedals as perfectly spaced, and the gearbox as beautifully slick on the road as they are on the track.” — MotorTrend

Acura Integra Type S Features

Performance
Drivers can experience what it’s like to unleash the fury of the precision-tuned 320-horsepower 2.0-liter VTEC turbocharged engine, included as standard on every Acura Integra Type S. Exclusive to the Type S, you’ll always be in the sweet spot of the power band thanks to its close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. A lightweight flywheel contributes to the quick-revving nature of this potent powertrain. As the most powerful Integra ever, the Type S boasts class-leading power and a class-leading power-to-weight ratio of just 10.1 pounds per horsepower. Providing a fitting soundtrack is a sport-tuned exhaust featuring triple outlets, providing plenty of pops and burbles for the most engaging experience possible.

Race-Inspired Styling & Tuning
At home both on and off the track, the Acura Integra Type S is styled to make a statement. Functional aerodynamics keep the Integra Type S planted at high speeds and while cornering. At the front, large air inlets integrated into the front fascia work to keep the brakes cool and consistent for maximum stopping power. Keeping the vehicle planted to the road surface is a rear diffuser that provides extra downforce and lift reduction. Unmistakable from every angle, the Integra Type S features a stylish and race-ready look. Lightweight 19 x 9.5-inch Shark Gray alloy wheels, inspired by the NSX, reduce unsprung weight to boost agility and athleticism. Also included as standard is the Adaptive Damper System (ADS), allowing drivers to choose Comfort, Sport, and Sport+ driving modes to match their personal preferences.
