The Integra Type S is $7,000 more than the Honda Civic Type R and is only $5,000 cheaper than the more powerful Audi S5 Sportback car auto cars
Hot hatches don’t come cheap, but you might be in for some sticker shock as Acura has announced theThat’s a pretty substantial number as thebegins at $31,500 and you can get a similar Honda Civic Type R for $43,795. It’s also impossible not to mention the $44,740 Volkswagen Golf R or the $55,800 Audi S5 Sportback.
So what does $50,800 get you? A turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine pumping out 320 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. That’s 5 hp more than the Honda and it’s paired with a six-speed manual transmission featuring an automatic rev-matching function.The engine is only part of the story as the Integra Type S has a limited-slip differential, an adaptive damper system, and a dual-axis front suspension that promises better “road holding” and reduced torque steer.
When it’s time to get a grip, there’s a perforated leather steering wheel with contrast stitching. It’s joined by a dark anodized shifter with a black Ultrasuede boot. Besides the special touches, the Integra Type S comes nicely equipped with a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster and a 9-inch infotainment system with Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay. Buyers will also find a head-up display, a wireless smartphone charger, and a 16-speaker ELS Studio 3D audio system. They’re joined by an ambient lighting system and a dual-zone automatic climate control system.
The liftback comes with the AcuraWatch suite of driver assistance systems which should include forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and traffic sign recognition technology. The model will also have blind spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert.The Integra Type S will arrive at dealerships next month, but the company will offer the first 200 units on May 11
