The 2026 Acura Integra features updated styling, advanced technology, and key performance upgrades designed to reaffirm its position as Acura’s entry-level enthusiast car.
Acura equips every 2026 Integra with a 9-inch touchscreen featuring a faster processor, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a wireless charging pad. These standard updates help ensure the compact sport sedan remains competitive in a crowded segment.
The A-Spec version accounts for a significant portion of the Integra's sales. For 2026, it features a new gloss-black aero body kit, black 18-inch wheels, and updated interior trim. You'll also see new blue microsuede or yellow contrast accent stitching, depending on your chosen interior options.
Three new paint colors join the lineup: Solar Silver Metallic, Urban Gray Pearl, and Double Apex Blue Pearl. Both Double Apex Blue and Performance Red Pearl now feature a color-matched grille, creating a more cohesive front-end appearance. This option is also available in other select colors, while a gloss-black grille remains standard across the rest of the lineup.
The 2026 Integra keeps its turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, which delivers 200 horsepower and 192 pound-feet of torque. Buyers can still choose between a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) or a six-speed manual—one of the few remaining models that offer this option in this market segment. Manual models also come with a limited-slip differential and rev-matching.
A-Spec models with the Technology package unlock additional performance upgrades, including in-cabin sound adjustments, an adaptive damping suspension, and a customizable Individual drive mode that allows drivers to fine-tune steering, throttle, and suspension settings.
Practicality remains a key strength thanks to the Integra's five-door liftback design, which offers usable rear legroom and increased cargo space under the sloping roofline.
The Integra’s cabin is well-equipped, featuring standard amenities such as eight-way power-adjustable heated front seats wrapped in synthetic leather and a 10.2-inch digital gauge cluster. A-Spec trims stand out with stainless steel pedals, red gauge needles, and contrast stitching throughout the interior.
The optional Technology package further enhances the interior experience by adding Alexa Built-in, a 5.3-inch head-up display, and upgrading the standard eight-speaker audio system to a premium 16-speaker ELS Studio 3D unit.
Safety technology remains solid across the board. AcuraWatch, the brand’s suite of advanced driver assistance systems, comes standard and features forward-collision warning, lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot warning. Parking sensors and low-speed braking assist are available on A-Spec models.
Acura says the updated 2026 Integra will begin arriving at dealerships starting in August 2025.
The Audi A3, BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe, Cadillac CT4, and Mercedes-Benz CLA are among the Integra’s competitors. Unlike its main rivals, the 2026 Acura Integra offers a manual transmission and a hatchback design. With a comprehensive list of standard features, the Integra is a practical and enthusiast-friendly option.
