16,500-Mile Update in Our Long Term 2023 Acura Integra Long Term
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We’re well past the get to know you phase, as we’ve been driving this 2023 Acura Integra for 8-months now. And perhaps the thing we love most about this Integra is that, unlike the typical Acura, it feels less like a tech device and more like a genuine driving machine.
There are things we want to do and then there are things we have to do. This Integra proves those things aren’t always mutually exclusive. I consider this Integra a jack of all trades because while it’s not truly exceptional at any one thing, it’s still really good at a lot of things. And to me, that’s the mark of a great daily driver.
Based on the Honda Civic’s already capable chassis, the Integra’s sport-tuned suspension, upgraded brakes, and 200-horsepower 1.5-liter turbo-4 take it to a new level.
But it’s Acura’s available Adaptive Damper System and Integrated Dynamics that bring it all together; adjusting throttle response, steering feel, in-cabin sound, and even the gauges based on whether you’ve selected Comfort, Normal, or Sport Drive Mode. Or you can create your own Individual mode with your preferred settings.
Regardless of settings, our fuel mileage has stayed very consistent, now sitting at 34.7 miles-per-gallon over 16,500-miles; still well above the Combined rating of 30.
We’re heading into winter weather, but something tells us the Integra won’t slow down much.

Fun fact: the Integra is outselling the Audi A3, Mercedes CLA and BMW 2-series GC, combined

They’re all $40k+. Too expensive for what they are

@toomuchthyme correct, the Integra competes with the A3, CLA and 2GC, while the Camry competes with the Malibu.

@@TheBreakfastLover wow they moved 30k integra more than ilx ever did on a peak year.
Love my integra. Had a 250 mile roadtrip with a mix of uphills and downhills, I got almost 40mpg.
I have the CVT version and it’s 100% fine. I’d only get on with the tech package though. The Integra screams Civic’s older brother that hasn’t fully matured yet without the technology package.
Glad to see the Integra exceeded expectations. I'll have to do another video about this soon. Great job @motorweek!
Impressive fuel economy results.
It's a great daily driver and allows you to still go pretty fast to have fun with the paddle shifters without having all the people wanting to race you It looks amazing!
How much are those adaptive shocks (each)? On the manual version, the shocks are great, until you have to have one replaced, in 3-4 years.
Any oil dilution problems with the 1.5?
Honda Acura became the new Oldsmobile for moms and pops
Is this with the automatic or 6spd manual??

With the FWD, the CVT which many folks get, and the 1.5T, there is way too much Honda DNA here to get excited about at this price point.
Wow, that's a nice Civic.
Did yall do the same thing for the MDX… here to report at 20K miles your breaks in the back will just squeak all the time. Acura says it’s normal and there investigating it. I’m sure this car will do the same. There breaks are shit long term. Was a huge Acura lover but now I can’t wait to get rid of my car

Haha. I had a 2021 RDX and a few weeks after purchasing it the breaks were squeaking annoyingly and they wouldn’t fix it at all. Still leased another Acura, an Integra though

I got the CVT over the manual. It achieves great MPG.
Looks like Japanese vanilla styling. Also not a fan of the pop up display and digital gauges.
Hmm hmm, cough cough.. Civic....
