The 2023 Acura Integra A-Spec Is An Affordable Premium Car For Enthusiasts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 май 2022
- The #AcuraIntegra was one of the original cars that the #Acura brand launched with back in 1986. It grew a huge cult following over the years before the name got retired in 2001. Over 20 years later, the #Integra is back and its back to reclaim its crown as an affordable premium car that is based on the reliable Honda Civic platform. The new 2023 #IntegraASpec is also the only vehicle in the segment available with a 6-speed MT and at only $30,800 to start, its one of the most affordable premium cars on the market.

The new Acura Integra is so much more than just a gussied up Honda Civic Si! We had a chance to drive both cars back-to-back and the Acura has noticeable changes to the ride quality and sound of the engine. We also really dig the styling on the outside and the huge practicality advantage with this Sportback design. Expect us to talk about those differences in an upcoming review!
but do you think it can compete with the new A3 or a Mercedes A class that came out in 2018?
@@kristians2704 the integra is totally fine. It’s a competitive Asian subcompact
I can think of a car that’s more expensive than the integra and worse than it in just about every way possible to man
Acura will forever be the lowest tier Luxury nameplate... this car exemplifies why its that way.... Lexus and even Genesis has way more prestiege and wow factor.... this is still a tarted Civic.. JUST ADD ANOTHER CIVIC TRIM LEVEL FOR F SAKES!!.... When will Honda ever do somthing GREAT for the Acura brand? Hyundai has pushed the Genesis nameplate to the stratosphere... one gorgeous model after another... Honda, meh.... Raid the Honda parts bin and slap an A emblem... 🤣
@@kristians2704 thats Hilarious.... when has a Civic (this fake luxury car) ever competed with "real" luxury nameplates?
@@naveenthemachine you are exactly why Acura exists and fails to move up in prestiege within the luxury tier of brands.... "Just Fine" is typical mindset for a mainstream brand owner... a Luxury brand nameplate should never be "Just Fine" .... they should be extaordinary, exciting and have a WoW factor.... If you want a luxury nameplate thats "Just fine" sure buy your Civic parts bin based Acura... if you want Prestiege and WoW, buy a Lexus, Genesis, Audi or MB
I had a '95 integra coupe/hatchback. I loved that car, drove it into the ground to 285,000 miles. Eneded up cracking the engine block. I drove that think HARD everyday. Loved it.
Drive em' like they're meant to be driven. Good job. I'm sure those 285k miles were all well deserved and supremely enjoyed!
I had a used 94 Integra GSR right after high school. It was a great car with quality soft touches everywhere. I traded for a 2003 RSX type S which is plastic everywhere.
I still have a 95 RS! the hatch is separating from the body but the engine runs great, I’m about 500 miles to 200k
Just picked one of these up yesterday. Black with red interior, manual. So far I love it. Coming from a 21 GLI which I also loved. On paper this is slower but it really doesn’t feel slower, and the interior is much nicer. The manual in this car is awesome.
The absence of cooled seats and rear seat climate vents is just baffling. The Honda Accord offers both of those at this price point and there is a lot of parts interchangeability between Accord and Civic/Integra. There are aftermarket rear seat vent retrofit kits for the Civic that basically just use accord parts. Literally all the ingredients are there, but Acura just chose not to use them for some reason. My guess was to preserve model hierarchy. I’ve always hated how American product planners are always trying to push you into a bigger vehicle to get the features you want.
For some reason American spec compacts just don't have rear vents. I don't understand that. I could see maybe not adding cooled seats when you're getting some more premium market features like the ELS audio system. I don't think the accord even offers bose yet.
The rear climate vents prob under the front seats
Right, my 07 Lexus IS has more features.
Does the Accord have a 6speed manual transmission for 2023?
The tlx has vents, but no connectivity.
Nothing screams premium, luxury like a CVT.
Especially when other luxury brands do t even make sedans this slow
@@VaunShiz audi a3 has 201hp, and a class has 188hp, and more expensive
@@VaunShiz hah! they don't? bmw, Audi, and Mercedes all have sedans slower dummy
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@shivamarya5225 and nicer and quicker
The white with the red seats actually looks really good. I don't know why, but I guess showing the prototype in yellow really did not do the car justice.
Yellow is the press color for cars now for some reason
@@freddybell8328 yeah, particularly this new integra though. It really hid the body lines, and made the proportions look super funky.
I still think that weird graphic was the biggest offender. The way it pointed upward made it look much taller, and I think that's where all the crosstour comments came from.
@@xboxmods Ah good point, completely forgot about those ugly decals
They'll probably save that yellow for the Type S Integra next year with everything it had on it.
I remember seeing somewhere that Acura's design philosophy for the Integra was to design it as if it never got discontinued. And I can definitely see that here.
This is the review I was waiting for. ❤️
Nice to hear Rob engaging in the video..thanks guys for a great review!

Ktuner/flashpro is a must for this vehicle. Tuning and lowering it will surely change its characteristics. Great review BTw , as always....cant wait to get mine next month.
Why would looking like a TLX be a criticism? Most all the other luxury brands, in particular, the Europeans, generally all design their sedans to look alike. Volvo, Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Jaguar, etc. They all try to have their sedans look a like. That said, this Integra actually looks better than the TLX to me.

I agree 1000 percent this is the best looking acura I've seen , it's absolutely beautiful aggressiveness and style with practicalities amazing
It’s called a family face/design language all brands have some sort of familiarity between all the models. The rear end on this vehicle in particular I definitely prefer to the TLX however
I agree this looks much better than the TLX. Wish the next accord look a bit similar to this.
Just be because everyone else is doing something doesn't make it right , it just makes y'all a herd of sheep
The reviews I’ve been waiting for
Love it. Loved the Integra when I was a kid and I will be scooping this up in a year or so when my lease is up.
Great review as always, and thanks for covering the CVT version as well! One thing I haven't been able to see anywhere is if the tachometer blinks red when you're using the paddles like it does on the manual version.
We didn’t see it do that on the automatic when we were using the paddles.
Darn what a bummer. I ordered the automatic but I might just switch for the manual
Seeing the original Integra 5-Door in the opening footage really helped to make sense of what Acura was going for with the design of the new one. While I can definitely understand some peoples desire for the “reborn” Integra to be more of a GR86/BRZ competitor, I think this one looks great.

@@porschefanatic1049 For sure, I’ve been a long-time subscriber of Tyson. He’s been my inspiration for keeping my 98 Accord V6 on the road.
Of course a GR86 competitor would be great, but there integra never was a RWD coupe. People don’t get that. And Acura/Honda isn’t going to spend millions to build a coupe in an SUV world that won’t sell. If coupes sold well, especially FWD, they’d still make a civic and accord coupe. Nissan would still make an Altima coupe. And Kia would make a forte coupe still.
@@71vwdriver I completely agree.
I think if they had done a little bit extra with the 1.5 or went with a lesser variant of the 2.0 people would be complaining less.
Thank you for the deep review.
Once again, excellent review y'all.
I have a Red w/ White Orchid interior pre-ordered. Should arrive in 3 weeks!
I’ve grown to like it a lot. It helps to know the actual history of the Integra in depth to understand where this one comes from, I say it stays pretty true to the name. CVT is kinda a bummer, but then again it offers a manual in a entry level luxury sedan, which you can’t really find in any of the competitors in the US.

The only I was bummed about is that the power is the exact same as the civic si, it should of been bumped up to at least 225 to validate it even more as more premium then the si
This is a very attractive package (w/the manual) for a daily. As long as the dealers aren't trying to bend everyone over w/mark ups I'd consider it for sure.
I like the big Infotainment system ( over 10 inch ), the big variable gauge cluster, the ventilated seats, the big pano. roof, the USB C´s in the second row, the very nice ambient lights inside and the AC´s in the second row and as a option the AWD and DCT in this very new 2023 modell year luxury brand car, the car has all the goodies where the other luxury brands has also.

6mt is the way to go. I agree with the dash. I thought the rear vents were going to be a problem but the front vents are large and really blow a lot of air to the rear. The civic hybrid has rear vents and I think its because it has the shifter delete and uses buttons because of the 2 generator hybrid setup honda uses.
I've been watching Redline Reviews for years and Sofyan is actually a solid manual driver. It's not easy getting into all these different vehicles and immediately driving them like a pro. Every manual/clutch has its own feel which takes more time to master than you typically have the vehicle for, so no judgement here!
Or just get the automatic and not worry about it.
@@theMLBfan Because some people don't want an automatic. Mazda sells far more manual Miatas than autos for good reason.
When you grow up its easy to get into any manual car.
If you don't know how to drive a manual transmission, you shouldn't be in the business of reviewing cars. Gimme a friggin break. Operating a clutch isn't a badge of honor or the credentials for getting a nomination into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame or the Brickyard.

Hello Redline Reviews your review brought back wonderful memories for me when my brother had his integra but it was 2 door. Btw I love your shoes, may I ask what are they?
Six speed manual transmission is the way to go bro.
I owned an ‘89 4 door (the white one he opened the video with). Engine was way ahead of its time. High revving and dependable. HP was much lower but the car weighed less than 2500lbs. Miss that car.

Very nice review!!! I like this new integra despite all the social media chatter.
the decrease in boost is from the vtec cams. The valves overlap in vtec and release some of the built up pressure. this is good for high-rpm power
Interesting to note that here in Canada heated steering wheel and heated rear seats are included on the top trim levels. Also the car is a bit cheaper here when you factor in the US/CAN$ exchange rate.
Oh yeah, that applies to a lot of cars from Nissan to Hyundai. You guys get more options and cheaper prices even adjusted for the exchange rate….
Finally, someone agrees that the Civic dash looks more premium.
You’re from York Pa? I live just north of York. I must say coming from owning two DA integras and having quite a bit of seat time behind the wheel of the DC integra. I was excited when I first heard they were bringing back the integra. That is until I saw the pictures. But now that I’ve seen a few videos of them I’d be interested in giving it a try.
Dope review as always Sofyan. On an unrelated note what shoes are you rocking in this review?
I went to the acura dealer down the street from my house today and they had a white integra a spec with the full blacked out package and red leather interior and i have to say, it was absolutely freaking gorgeous!!! for right around 35k its well worth the money! Theres no other vehicles for that price that offer immaculate exterior styling along with leather seats and a sun roof...

It’s nice. Just wish it were a bit faster, hopefully we’ll see a Type S with a 6 Speed.
Right! 200 hp is too slow. I thought the hp would be at least 265 hp.
I really like the sport sedan lineup of Acura . traded - in my small , humble '16 civic touring for a '16 MDX then traded - in again for a ¹22 MDX because of the growing family and luggages . Back then , I always though that the '16 civic has those acura touches on it but look like it didn't make the cut ... or for marketing strategies . = D Really nice . But seems so huge compared to the previous generation . Still way bigger than the rsx and ilx ( the 2 so called successors ) .

Luxury automakers do make economy cars, I think people seem to forget that.

Ïñböx thē ñümbêr åbøvê ī gôt sömēthîñg tø shōw yåh
Yup. The problem with people in our country is that they be wanting luxury automakers to give them cars with their mainstream brand's pricing. They want an Integra to be the same price as the Civic Si sedan. That's just not how any of that works.
@@antoinelee-thomas9536 well yea the premium brand, comes premium price
It really looks like a mini TLX. Love the interior especially the OG looking shift knob. Very reminiscent of the older 8th gen Si. Will there be a Type S with R motor? 👀
Acura hasn’t said for sure but seeing how there’s an mdx type s I’d imagine they have to for the teg
No, they won’t do it because of the Type R
@@Ransack777 they will use the clean styling, luxury, and name of the integra to have it be a luxury type R. It’s a no brainer. It will probably be really expensive though and having it be awd would be a nice differentiated touch.
If it also looked like a TLX on the inside it would have been so much better.
@@UnitiveWILLIAM24 They wont do it. It would be too close to the Type S TLX in price and too close to the Type R in performance. They know what they are doing and they wont make a Type S like the RDX. Not Type S
Great video
This dude has some calves of freedom haha 💪🏼
I'd like to see more bright colors offered on this car.
Hopefully just like the DC2 Integra Type R from 2 decades ago, the Integra Type S is offered in yellow exterior from the prototype with the rear wing spoiler, yellow on black seats with the Type S embroidery, Brembo Calipers front and rear, 6-speed manual. It'll be a Type S, so the Integra Type S should have the same color as the old Integra Type R, but super beefed up and sported out.
At $36,800 for a fully loaded manual, that's a hell of a steal for a luxury car. The Germans are overpriced. The Lexus IS250 is slower, but it and the Cadillac CT4 non-V would really come close to this.
I'd certainly get this especially with these gas prices.

I still have my ‘16 civic touring and it reminded me of my 96 integra gsr. It’s gonna be interesting to drive this ‘23 integra.
I'm still loving my "humble" 2016 Civic Touring sedan. This Integra would be a nice upgrade.
@@GruncleJohn Right? When I saw the 10th Gen back in 2015 it somewhat reminded me of the 90s style. And for that reason alone that's why I jumped in and got it. It has its flaw though but still I think it’s features and style is ahead of its competitors that time.
@@ivanlowjones Definitely. I think that is a smart upgrade if you love the civic features in a more upscale feel.
Nice! Have you heard if they are bringing back the "Legend"?
The engine sound and exhaust so nice... 👍😎
The fact that Acura officially calls this a Liftback is proof that modern day hatchbacks are no longer hatchbacks since the Civic 'hatch' is built on the same body. Honda's last true hatch was the Fit.
Small SUVs are also just lifted hatchbacks, if it counts
@@shivamarya5225 Yes true, I suppose the HRV is Honda's real current hatch.
Civic hatch is closer to a “hatchback” than the Integra is. They both have completely different bodies. The civic trunk entry is lower and wider, more akin to a traditional hatchback. Integra trunk opening is more like the trunk of a normal car-higher and more narrow
@@SIIKAP1 You're kidding yourself, it's basically a liftback. How is it closer to a hatch?
If it was closer to a hatch then it would be closer to 90 degrees.
The 5th gen Civic hatch was a true hatch.
The Honda fit was a true hatch.
I even consider the HRV a hatch.
The new Civic? Nope
I'd rather have a liftback over a trunked sedan that pretends to be one (cough cough Tesla Model 3, Mercedes CLA, BMW 2GC)
My biggest problem with the Integra is what Honda did with the Civic Si. Took away the amenities that the 10th gen Si already had, including adaptive dampers and then raised the cost of the 11th gen Si $2K. Then, added them all back into the top trim Integra A-Spec with Tech Pkg for $8K more. $8K more and you don't even get rear vents. It's a nice car, but definitely not worth $8K more than an Si with the same powertrain.

Thanks for running 0-60 in each. That CVT lag at launch is unacceptable, but I guess expected for what it is. Manual for me, thank you.
I concur with the missing rear vents. Why extend the wheelbase to provide more comfort and room for rear seat passengers, and not provide the comfort of air circulation? My 2005 Jetta had them.
They do their research when they make them. Usually, they have a target demographic that purchases them and if they feel like the need for it is non existent, they prefer to cut costs in that department. I know your frustration but I get why they didn't include it.
Guess what, the new Jetta doesn’t have rear seats air vents anymore 😵💫

This was a GREAT review. Ive been slamming this car for awhile. Basically because its not my '00 GSR. However, im now 44 with two kids and need more space. Im slowly warming up to this. The hatch is huge for people like myself that don't want an SUV. I do wish it was DCT though. Driving stick every day doesnt interest me as much as it once did. It seems like a real nice car, because, well, the civic already is. I just wish it had more to differentiate itself from the civic. Im now looking at this as a successor to the LS/GS integra and the type S (they already trademarked the name) will be the successor to the GSR/TYPE R. More power would be nice, but I believe it gets 6 mpg more than an elantra N or a Mazda 3 turbo.
great review men really 💯 thanx. i just don't know why acura haven't do an 1.8 engine... i hope the type s does come with a different more powerful engine such as the 1.8 at least really.
I love everything about this car except for the engine. I have no reason to drop my '12 TSX, and I'd be looking for that type-S or a much stronger engine to make this interesting. As a whole, I still feel like Acura is a big laggard in the market and needs to jump on that EV/PHEV train ASAP. MDX's will only take you so far. If you're not going to give me power, give me efficiency.
stop judging a car by hp...drive it...it is much faster than your 12 tsx....j have driven both...in 10 yrs if you don't think everything about this car is better than your tsx you are naive...smh
CU2 is irreplaceable to date 😅
@@digga27one74 did you test drive a manual?
I have no problem Honda/ Acura reviving the Integra name but a little bit more effort is required. I mean putting a CVT transmission on instead of your own 8 speed auto that ILX used to have? Why not roll out the Type S trim with an auto transmission and SHAWD at this launch year? Why wait??
Because Type-S of this is probably gonna be a luxe version of the CTR. More than likely their being worked on together.

I am looking for any opinion on the 8 speaker base audio system. I am looking to pick up a new Integra, and that is the only feature that makes me want the tech package. The only reviews I can find talk about the 15 speaker system.
For a luxury name, I expected Acura to not decontent & downgrade the rear seat area. Not having rear vents & same-quality rear door panels as the front is inexcusable. Plus, fixed rear headrests?
Otherwise, it's a promising enough car to revive the Intergra name. I love the red interior.
Even the KIA Forte GT has rear seat area vents, for $10K less!
Amazing utility and features, it reminds me of the original 2004 TSX Tech manual, it was the best small sedan in its time. I always wanted to see Civic Si hatch and premium audio, Integra is even better while pricing is still decent.
They might as well call this a TSX instead of the integra. I wish it was 2 door.
Will always miss my DC5 & it’s iVTEC screaming over 6K rpm. Nothing is more satisfying than the sound of an all motor VTEC engine.

@@TwisteeTheDefiant1 It didn't drive up the price of the previous ILX...
What camera are you using connected to the sunroof?
How does this car with the top trim not have real leather seats? The Civic Touring has Leather seats. Acura has gone nuts!
I love the car but honestly wish they offered the manual in the base or even A spec. As an upcoming graduate with a master’s, I don’t think I can afford a $36k Integra. Even at $30,800, I could probably negotiate it down to the price of a Si. So please Acura, offer the manual in the lower Integra trims too

Congrats on getting your master's degree
But I agree with you!
Interested to see what they do with the type s.

Does the Integra have the Homelink system or something similar for the garage door functions?
I got my 2018 a spec today pearl white with red interior. Its such a good solid car i'm in love
What are you talking about dude?? If you're talking about TLX then you're in the wrong video 🤡🤦🏽♂️
@@porfiriato84 I know they arent the same cars but they are obviously similar. Anyways i came from BMW and i honestly like Acura way more. It beats the 2015 320i i had in every aspect, aside from fuel economy.
No vented seats kills me - this thing was almost a grand slam! Love everything else about it. And probably one of the few ICE vehicles i could convince my wife to buy with those juicy MPGs!
I have to agree on the vented seats. I’ll bet they’re saving it for the type s
Stop whining. Just put on the a/c and drive. Don't worry you won't melt princess.
I hear ya. I'm at a cross road - integra 6 speed or TLX s type with ventilated seats. Ugh
@@glp046 Oof. I think you gotta go with that TLX S-type unless you are game to wait and see if Acura puts out an S-type integra. >:) Happy driving!
its a redesigned TL but slapped a integra name on it...shame on acura!
