Acura has significantly enhanced the Integra lineup for the 2026 model year as the performance brand celebrates 40 years. The refreshed 2026 Acura Integra will continue its dominance of the premium sport compact segment with three new exterior color options, an available color-matched grille, a host of additional standard technology features, including a larger touchscreen, and a new aero body kit for the Integra A-Spec.
Aficionados of the Integra model can expect the following:
- Tech-rich cabin that now includes a larger 9” color touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and wireless charging—all standard
- Integra A-Spec models add new aero body kit, black 18” wheels and ambient lighting for a more premium, aspirational look inside and out
- A perennial top seller, Integra currently commands over 40% of premium compact sedan segment retail sales
Under the aluminum hood of Integra is a VTEC®-enhanced DOHC 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 200-horsepower and 192 lb.-ft. of torque. It is paired with either a segment-exclusive 6-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission (CVT). A unique coil-type exhaust system adds an emotional sound that enhances Integra’s engaging driving experience. A standard Integrated Dynamics System enables the Integra driver to choose between three distinct driving modes (Comfort, Normal, and Sport) for the throttle response, automatic transmission mapping, steering feel, and gauge coloration. A-Spec with Technology Package adds adjustments for in-cabin sound, plus an “Individual” mode that allows the driver to customize the Integrated Dynamics System setting combinations to their liking.
“The Acura Integra has dominated the premium sport compact segment since its launch in 2022, winning the prestigious North American Car of the Year Award and consistently commanding over 40% of retail sales in the segment,” said Mike Langel, assistant vice president, Acura National Sales.” Integra has also fulfilled its role as the performance gateway to the Acura brand, with the youngest buyers in the segment and the highest conquest rate of any Acura vehicle.”
The Integra is packed with technology, including a standard 10.2” Acura Precision Cockpit digital gauge cluster. The available Technology Package adds Alexa Built-In and a 5.3” Head-Up Display (HUD). Additionally, charging is supported by a USB-C port up front and two USB-C ports at the back of the center console for rear-seat passengers. Standard premium audio is provided via 8 speakers, while the available 16-speaker ELS STUDIO 3D premium audio system provides dimension with two Highline speakers mounted in the headliner.
A rigid body structure and sport-tuned chassis are optimized for an exhilarating driving experience. As the only 5-door liftback in the premium sport compact segment, Integra offers sleek styling while benefiting from the extended cargo flexibility. An aggressive new aero body kit and newly styled 18” black wheels provide a more premium, aspirational look on the Integra A-Spec. The aero body kit adds gloss black side spoilers to each corner of the front fascia and a sleek new side sill garnish that improves the sedan’s high-speed aerodynamics and visual appeal.
The enhanced appearance of the 2026 Acura Integra also includes three new colors: Solar Silver Metallic, Urban Gray Pearl, and Double Apex Blue Pearl, which debuted on the all-electric ZDX Type S. In addition, Double Apex Blue Pearl or Performance Red Pearl now features a sporty new color-matched grille. A gloss-black grille is standard on all other exterior colors and available as an accessory on Integras painted Double Apex Blue and Performance Red Pearl. A color-matched grille is available as an accessory on Integras painted Urban Gray Pearl and Platinum White Pearl.
Interior updates to the 2026 Integra include a fresh trim pattern on the dashboard and extended ambient lighting for the Integra A-Spec. In addition, Integra A-Spec models with the Orchid interior gain new blue micro suede inserts, first seen on the 2025 ADX. Integra A-Spec models with the Ebony interior sport new yellow stitching on the seats, steering wheel, shift boot, and door panels. Heated front seats wrapped in leatherette are standard, with 8-way power adjustment for the driver, and available in Ebony, Red, or Orchid. The optional Technology Package adds a 12-way power seat for the driver and microsuede inserts for the front seats.
Integra A-Spec models communicate a performance edge with stainless steel pedals, red gauge needles, and contrast stitching on the steering wheel, seats, shifter, and shift boot.
