2024 Acura Integra Type S vs Its Competition l Maus Acura North Tampa

The Acura Integra is back! After 17 years since its last appearance, the 2024 Acura Integra Type S is making its comeback in the automotive industry. It’s fast, stylish, and much more modern than its predecessor. But how well does it fare when compared to the high-powered competition in the market? Read on for a comparison of the 2024 Integra Type S with its competitors, including the 2024 Audi S3, 2024 Honda Civic Type R, 2024 BMW M235i Gran Coupe, and 2024 Mercedes-AMG CLA 35.

Performance

When it comes to performance, the 2024 Acura Integra Type S is in a league of its own. It’s powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter VTEC engine that produces 320 horsepower a 310 lb-ft of torque—it’s truly a powerful car. It’s also equipped with a high-performance suspension system that provides an excellent balance between comfort and agility, thanks to Acura’s new adaptive damper system. The car offers precise steering and excellent handling, and it can reach a top speed of 165 mph.

On the other hand, the 2024 Audi S3 and the 2024 BMW M235i Gran Coupe are powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 306 horsepower and 301 horsepower respectively. While the Honda Civic Type R and Mercedes-AMG CLA 35 have more horsepower (306 and 302, respectively), they do not match the Integra Type S’s torque output. Additionally, the Integra Type S is the only car in its segment available with a six-speed manual transmission, which is a joy to use and adds to the car’s fun-to-drive factor.

Style and Features

In terms of style, the 2024 Acura Integra Type S sports an aggressive exterior that is both elegant and sporty. The car is equipped with LED headlights and taillights, a black mesh grille, and 19-inch wheels that give it a strong road presence. The interior is equally impressive, with a sporty black and red theme and high-quality materials used throughout the cabin. The front seats are comfortable and supportive, and the car comes with a long list of features, including a 10.2-inch infotainment system, wireless charging, and a premium sound system.

Compared to the competition, the Audi S3 and BMW M235i Gran Coupe offer a more mature and sophisticated look, while the Honda Civic Type R and Mercedes-AMG CLA 35 have a more aggressive exterior design—but none of them match the Integra Type S’s sporty yet elegant aesthetic.
