Acura reveals updated 2026 Integra

For manufacturers, summer is usually “new car season”, a time of year when automakers roll out their lineup for the upcoming model year. These cars tend to dribble out slowly, one at a time, and today it’s Acura’s turn with the reveal of the updated 2026 Integra.

Given that the current fifth gen Integra just went on sale for the 2023 model year, we weren’t expecting many changes for 2026, but the updates Acura is throwing at the car are significant.

The big tech update is a larger 9-inch infotainment touchscreen, which replaces the outgoing 7-inch unit, and is standard on all models. The new screen has a faster processor for improved performance, according to Acura. Also standard across the range is wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, and a wireless phone charger.

Other cabin updates include a new dashboard trim pattern and extended ambient lighting for the A-Spec grade. A-Spec trims with Orchid interiors also receive blue microsuede inserts, while black interiors get yellow stitching on the seats, steering wheel, shift boot and door panels.

Exterior changes include new 18-inch black wheels for the A-Spec trim, and a new aero body kit which includes gloss black side spoilers on each corner of the front fascia, along with a side sill garnish.

Acura is also expanding the Integra’s color palette with three new exterior finishes: Solar Silver Metallic, Urban Gray Metallic, and Double Apex Blue Pearl. The latter is also available on the pure electric ZDX Type S SUV.

Another new wrinkle for ’26 is a color-matched grille, which is standard for Integras finished in Performance Red Pearl (not available in Canada), or Double Blue Apex Pearl. All other colors come with a standard gloss-black grille, which is available as an option for Performance Red Pearl and Double Apex Blue Pearl. Color-matched grilles are also optional for Urban Gray Pearl, and Platinum White Pearl.

Mechanically, the 2026 Integra carries forward with a standard 1.5-liter DOHC VTEC turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 200 horsepower and 192 pounds-feet of torque (320 hp / 310 lb-ft. on Type S). The turbo four is paired with either a standard CVT or 6-speed manual (optional on A-Spec, standard on Type S) that drive the front wheels.

Acura has not revealed pricing for the 2026 Integra, but we expect it to be announced soon as the car is slated to begin arriving at U.S. dealers next month. Canadian units are expected to land in October.

For reference, the 2025 Integra starts at $33,000 in the U.S., and $39,875 in Canada.
