CardinaleWay Acura Las Vegas - What to Know About the 2026 Acura Integra

The 2026 Acura Integra lands in a sweet spot for drivers who want premium refinement and daily usability without giving up a genuine connection to the road. At CardinaleWay Acura Las Vegas, we see the new Integra as a modern take on an enthusiast favorite, blending responsive powertrains, confidence-inspiring chassis tuning, advanced driver tech, and a flexible 5-door liftback design. Whether you prioritize a smooth commute, a spirited weekend drive, or a little of both, the Integra lineup offers a compelling path to make every mile feel special.

Performance is the Integra’s headline. The standard 1.5L VTEC turbo delivers an eager 200 hp with a broad torque curve for quick, predictable response around town and on the highway. You can pair it with a sport-tuned CVT that includes paddle shifters for hands-on control or opt for a 6-speed manual with Rev-Match Control that keeps the engine in its sweet spot and rewards precise inputs. For maximum thrills, the Integra Type S turns things up with a motorsport-derived 2.0L VTEC turbo producing 320 hp. Its close-ratio 6-speed manual, Dual-Axis Strut front suspension for sharper turn-in, and large Brembo front brake calipers make it the most capable Integra to date. Multiple drive modes let you tailor the experience, and Type S adds a raucous Sport+ mode complete with an active exhaust for a more visceral soundtrack.

Design is more than style here, though the Integra wears its personality proudly. The sleek liftback shape adds versatility, while A-Spec details bring a bold look with dark accents and performance-inspired cues. Type S pushes form to serve function with widened fenders, purposeful aero, and triple exhaust outlets. Inside, the cockpit’s clean layout and supportive seating set the tone for focused driving. You’ll find a 10.2-inch digital gauge cluster, a 9-inch touchscreen within easy reach, and intuitive controls that reduce distraction. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, and available Alexa Built-in lets you use voice to check directions, play music, or adjust settings. Audiophiles will love the available ELS Studio 3D system with 16 speakers, and daily drivers will appreciate conveniences like a wireless charging pad and an optional head-up display.

Practicality remains core to the Integra’s appeal. The liftback opens wide for easy loading, and the 60/40-split rear seats fold flat to accommodate gear for road trips, sports, and weekend projects. AcuraWatch driver-assistive tech helps you stay confident in busy traffic and long stretches alike with features such as Collision Mitigation Braking, Road Departure Mitigation, Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Lane Keeping Assist, and Traffic Sign Recognition. Blind spot monitoring, Rear Cross Traffic Monitor, parking sensors, and Low-Speed Braking Control are available to round out the safety story. As always, equipment varies by package, so our team can help you match features to your priorities.
