A compact hatch should be fun, flexible, and premium. The refreshed 2026 Acura Integra delivers exactly that - with genuine performance hardware, upscale tech, and craftsmanship you won't find in the Honda Civic Hatchback. Acura of Sherman Oaks illustrates why the Acura Integra stands out as superior.
Spirited Performance
The dynamic 2026 Acura Integra comes equipped with a spirited 1.5-liter VTEC® turbo engine, generating up to 200 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque. For even more enticing power, consider the Acura Integra Type S, which uses a brawnier 2.0-liter VTEC® turbo engine, produces up to 320 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque.
By comparison, the Honda Civic Hatchback prioritizes efficiency over pure performance. Its 2.0-liter engine and hybrid options offer solid everyday output, but they lack the manual-gearbox engagement, limited-slip traction, and performance-focused chassis tuning that define the Acura Integra. Even the track-ready Civic Type R, with 315 horsepower and 310 lb-ft, comes up short in horsepower and merely matches the torque of the Acura Integra Type S, reinforcing Acura's advantage as the more refined and enthusiast-oriented choice.
Intuitive Technology
Every 2026 Acura Integra features a 9.0‑inch color touchscreen with standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ plus an available wireless charger. The available ELS STUDIO 3D® premium audio surrounds you with 16 speakers, including overhead Highline™ drivers and a cargo‑integrated subwoofer, for a concert‑grade soundstage.
The Honda Civic Hatchback models offer modern connectivity and, on top trims, a Bose® audio system - but they don't offer the Integra's ELS STUDIO 3D® 16‑speaker 3D system, which is exclusive to Acura and tuned specifically for the Integra cabin.
Premium Interior
With their superior craftsmanship, precision, and styling, new Acura models always feature top-of-the-line interiors. The 2026 Acura Integra is available with premium details such as heated front seats with 12-way power adjustability and memory function, while the Honda Civic Hatchback only offers a heated eight-way driver's seat in the hybrid models. The Acura Integra is also available with many unique style details such as Ultrasuede®-trimmed sport seats with microsuede seat inserts, a perforated leather sport steering wheel, and a dark titanium-finish knob.
