Beloved by driving enthusiasts, the 2026 Acura Integra is a special car in an SUV world.

Arguably positioned between the Civic and Accord in the Honda/Acura universe, but serving as an alternative to the Audi A3, BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe, and Mercedes-Benz CLA, the 2026 Integra blends comfort, utility, and driving satisfaction in an appealing five-door liftback configuration. For the 2026 model year, subtle styling updates and an improved standard infotainment system keep the Integra fresh, and with the cancellation of the TLX, it serves as Acura’s only car model.

Verdict: Thanks to its liftback design and appealing price point, the Acura Integra has no direct rivals. However, it faces significant in-house competition from the Acura ADX crossover SUV and the Honda Civic Hatchback. They render the Integra obsolete, which is a shame because it is a genuinely stylish, practical, and fun car.

9/10

Acura offers the 2026 Integra in base, A-Spec, A-Spec with Technology, and Type S trim levels. They’re all based on the Honda Civic, but distinguish themselves through exclusive design, powertrain, and packaging details. Base pricing ranges from $34,595 to $54,595, including the $1,195 destination charge.

Our A-Spec with Technology test car arrived with the available six-speed manual transmission, a real rarity in the market. Equipped with extra-cost Double Apex Blue Pearl paint, it had a manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of $40,995, including destination. That’s more than a loaded Honda Accord Touring Hybrid.

The 2026 Integra is an appealing car, wearing Acura’s now familiar “diamond pentagon” grille, “jewel eye” LED headlights, and sculpted bodywork. It shares its 107.7-inch wheelbase with the Honda Civic Hatchback, but the Acura is 6.8 inches longer, 1.1 inches wider, and slightly shorter than the Honda. Those dimensions translate into a more balanced look than the stubby Civic.

For the 2026 model year, Integra A-Spec models wear a new exterior body kit with gloss-black detailing, and the 18-inch wheels are painted black rather than dark gray. Solar Silver, Urban Gray Pearl, and Double Apex Blue are the new paint colors, and a body-color grille is newly available. Interior trim is revised as well, while the A-Spec and A-Spec with Technology add ambient lighting. Choose one of those A-Spec trims with an Orchid interior color, and new blue microfiber trim adds even more contrast to the cabin. Get the Ebony interior color, and enjoy new yellow contrast stitching throughout.

Quality and subtle luxury characterize the Integra’s interior, which is slightly smaller inside than that of the Civic Hatchback. It doesn’t seem that way from the driver’s seat, though, thanks to an expansive hood that makes the Integra feel much wider than it is.

The controls and displays are simple and straightforward, with clear white markings on matte-finish black backgrounds. Elegant detailing adds subtle luxury, such as the diamond-mesh air vent trim and metallic knurled stereo volume and climate system knobs. An aluminum-topped knob caps the test car’s shifter, and the A-Spec models feature sporty stainless steel pedal covers and red gauge needles.

Plenty of what you find in the Integra is also evident in the Honda Accord and Civic. That’s a compliment for the Hondas, and not a ding against the Acura. But it also underscores the thin line separating the comparatively expensive Integra from its more sensibly priced Honda cousins.
