Acura Integra

There is no separate “5 generation” name in the data: the fifth record is this restyling.

1 generation (1985-01-01–1990-12-31) is Hatchback 3-door with ten versions: 1.5 MT, 1.5 AT, four rows named 1.6 MT, four named 1.6 AT. Split 1.6 by power: 120 hp (88 kW) versus 115 hp (84 kW). Ground clearance where measured is 150 mm. Fuel tank, 0–100, top speed, CO2, eco class, wheels, and most kerb weights are not measured.

2 generation (1989-01-01–1993-12-31) is Coupe, three versions, all 140 hp (103 kW) 1,834 cc Gasoline: two 1.8 MT (kerb 1,160 kg and 1,190 kg) and one 1.8 AT. Mixed consumption where measured is 9. Peak power is 2 hp below the later 142 hp 1,834 cc cars, torque is 8 Nm higher (180 vs 172). Tank, 0–100, top speed, CO2, eco class, wheels: not measured.

3 generation (1993-01-01–2001-12-31) is Coupe, eight versions, all named 1.8 AT or 1.8 MT. Distinguish them by horsepower: 1.8 AT 170 hp (one row), 1.8 AT 142 hp (two rows with the same listed engine figures), 1.8 MT 197 hp (one), 1.8 MT 170 hp (two rows that are not the same car: 7.8 s / 230 km/h / 1,235 kg versus 7.2 s / 210 km/h / 1,275 kg), 1.8 MT 142 hp (two rows: kerb 1,147 kg with consumption 9.4 / 7.6 / 8.7 versus kerb 1,190 kg with consumption not measured). This generation is the only one with a measured 50-litre tank on every row and the only pre-2022 cars with 0–100 and top speed filled in. Wheels, where listed: 195/55 R15, 195/60 R16, 215/45 R16.

4 generation (from 2022-03-01, stop not measured) is Liftback, three versions: 1.5 i Turbo MT, 1.5 i Turbo AT, 2.0 i Turbo MT Type S. Boost changes from No to Turbo. Injection changes from Distributed injection (multi-point) to Direct injection (direct). Gearboxes: Manual 6 on the two MT rows, Variable on 1.5 i Turbo AT (gear count not measured). Displacement jumps off the old 1.5 / 1.6 / 1.8 set: 1,500 cc and 2,000 cc.

4 generation, restyling (from 2025-08-01, stop not measured) is the same Liftback trio with the same names and the same 200 / 200 / 324 hp figures. Engine position is filled as Front, transverse on the restyling rows; it is not measured on the 2022 trio except where noted below. Restyling does not add a new power band in this file. Ground clearance, tank, consumption, CO2, eco class, wheels: not measured on either 4 generation entry.

There is no separate “5 generation” name in the data: the fifth record is this restyling.

Engines and specs

Every engine is Gasoline, 4, Inline, FWD. Valves per cylinder are 3 on 1.5 MT / 1.5 AT and 4 on every other version. Boost is No through 3 generation and Turbo on all 4 generation / restyling rows.

Power per litre (hp ÷ litres): 1.5 57.1; 1.6 115 hp 72.3; 1.6 120 hp 75.5; 2 generation 1.8 76.3; 3 generation 142 hp 77.4; 3 generation 170 hp 94.6; 3 generation 197 hp 109.6; 1.5 i Turbo 133.3; 2.0 i Turbo MT Type S 162.0. The 197 hp 1.8 MT extracts 27 hp more than the 170 hp 1.8 MT from the same 1,797 cc (+15.9%) and 4 Nm more (178 vs 174), at 400 rpm higher peak power and 1,100 rpm higher peak torque. It is the only naturally aspirated row on fuel 98. Compression is 9.2 on the 1,488 / 1,834 cc naturally aspirated set (1.5 and the 140/142 hp 1.8s), 9.6 on 1,590 cc, 10 on 1,797 cc 170 hp; not measured on 197 hp 1.8 MT and on all Turbo rows. Bore × stroke: 74 × 86.5 (1.5), 75 × 90 (1.6), 81 × 89 (1,834 cc), 81 × 87.2 (1,797 cc 170 hp); not measured on 197 hp 1.8 MT and Turbo rows. Engine location Front, transverse is measured on 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp (1,235 kg) and 1.8 MT 197 hp, and on all restyling rows; not measured elsewhere.

Performance and economy (mpg)

0–100 km/h is measured on four rows only:

• 3 generation 1.8 MT 197 hp: 6.7 s, 234 km/h
• 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp, 1,275 kg: 7.2 s, 210 km/h
• 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp, 1,235 kg: 7.8 s, 230 km/h
• 4 generation and restyling 2.0 i Turbo MT Type S: 5.4 s, 275 km/h

Type S is 1.3 s quicker to 100 km/h than 197 hp 1.8 MT and 41 km/h higher on top speed. The two 170 hp manuals disagree: the 1,275 kg row is 0.6 s quicker to 100 than the 1,235 kg row (7.2 vs 7.8) but 20 km/h slower on top speed (210 vs 230). That is in the file; do not average them. All other 0–100 and top speeds are not measured — including every Automatic, every 1 generation and 2 generation car, both 142 hp manuals, both 200 hp turbos, and both 1.5 i Turbo AT rows.

Consumption (l/100 km, catalogue figures, not mpg converted) is measured only on naturally aspirated manuals that list it:

• 1 generation 1.6 MT 120 hp and 1.6 MT 115 hp: city 9, highway 7.8, mixed 8.6
• 2 generation 1.8 MT 140 hp (both kerb rows): city 9.4, highway 7.6, mixed 9
• 3 generation 1.8 MT 142 hp (1,147 kg): city 9.4, highway 7.6, mixed 8.7

Highway is 0.2 l/100 km lower on the 1.8s than on the 1.6s (7.6 vs 7.8); mixed is 0.4 higher on 2 generation than on 1 generation 1.6 (9 vs 8.6) and 0.3 lower on 3 generation 142 hp than on 2 generation (8.7 vs 9). Every Automatic, every 170/197 hp row, and every Turbo row: consumption not measured. CO2 and eco class: not measured on all 27 rows.

Dimensions and weight

Ground clearance is 150 mm on every 1, 2, and 3 generation version; not measured on 4 generation and restyling. Tank is 50 l on every 3 generation version; not measured on generations 1, 2, and 4. Wheels are listed only on 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp (1,235 kg) and 1.8 MT 197 hp: 195/55 R15, 195/60 R16, 215/45 R16.

Kerb / kg per hp (where both exist):

• 1 generation 1.6 MT 120 hp: 1,084 kg / 9.03 kg/hp; two 1.6 rows list gross 1,055 kg with kerb not measured
• 2 generation 1.8 MT: 1,160 kg / 8.29 kg/hp and 1,190 kg / 8.50 kg/hp
• 3 generation 1.8 MT 142 hp: 1,147 kg / 8.08 kg/hp and 1,190 kg / 8.38 kg/hp
• 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp: 1,235 kg / 7.26 kg/hp and 1,275 kg / 7.50 kg/hp
• 3 generation 1.8 MT 197 hp: 1,120 kg / 5.69 kg/hp (gross 1,550 kg)
• 2.0 i Turbo MT Type S (both 4 generation entries): 1,460 kg / 4.51 kg/hp

Gross is also 1,650 kg on 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp (1,235 kg kerb) and 1,055 kg on several 1 generation 1.6 rows. The 197 hp Coupe is 340 kg lighter than Type S (1,120 vs 1,460) and 115 kg lighter than the heavier 170 hp manual (1,275). Type S still undercuts it on kg/hp because 324 ÷ 1460 vs 197 ÷ 1120. Suspension where listed: Independent, spring front and rear. Brakes where listed: Ventilated disc front, Disc rear. Those chassis lines repeat on 3 generation (and the same Independent, spring / Ventilated disc / Disc pattern is on 1 and 2 generation rows that fill them). 4 generation chassis fields are not measured.

Which version to choose

Buy 2.0 i Turbo MT Type S if the job is the strongest Integra in this file. 324 hp, 238 kW, 420 Nm, 2,000 cc, Turbo, Direct injection (direct), Manual 6, FWD, 5.4 s, 275 km/h, 1,460 kg. Versus 1.5 i Turbo MT you gain 124 hp and 228 Nm on 500 cc more displacement (162.0 vs 133.3 hp/l). Versus 3 generation 1.8 MT 197 hp you gain 127 hp and 242 Nm, cut 1.3 s to 100 km/h, and add 41 km/h on top speed — at +340 kg and a change from boost No / fuel 98 / multi-point to Turbo / fuel 92 / direct. Restyling (2025-08-01) does not change those Type S numbers; choose restyling only if you want the later start date and Front, transverse written in. Consumption, tank, clearance, wheels: not measured.

Buy 1.5 i Turbo MT if you want the new Liftback’s 200 hp without the Type S step. Same 1,500 cc, 147 kW @ 6,000, 192 Nm from 1,500–5,000 rpm, Turbo, fuel 92, Manual 6, FWD. Versus 3 generation 1.8 MT 197 hp you are +3 hp and +14 Nm on 297 cc less (133.3 vs 109.6 hp/l), with torque available from 1,500 rpm instead of 7,300. 0–100, top speed, mass: not measured on this row, so you cannot claim it is quicker than 6.7 s. 1.5 i Turbo AT is the same engine with Variable instead of Manual 6; gear count not measured. Between 2022 and 2025 restyling the 200 hp pair does not change power.

Buy 3 generation 1.8 MT 197 hp if you want the fastest measured naturally aspirated Integra and the lowest kerb in the file (1,120 kg). 197 hp @ 8,000, 178 Nm @ 7,300, 1,797 cc, fuel 98, Manual 5, Front, transverse, 6.7 s, 234 km/h, 5.69 kg/hp, 109.6 hp/l. Versus the 170 hp 1.8 MT you pay (in spec, not money) 27 hp and 4 Nm and 98 instead of 95; versus the 1,235 kg 170 hp row you are 115 kg lighter and 1.1 s quicker (6.7 vs 7.8) with +4 km/h vmax (234 vs 230). Versus the 1,275 kg 170 hp row you are 155 kg lighter, 0.5 s quicker, and 24 km/h faster on top speed. Compression and bore × stroke: not measured on this 197 hp row.

Buy 3 generation 1.8 MT 170 hp if 197 hp / 98 fuel is more engine than you will use. Two catalogue rows share the name: pick by mass and the clock. The 1,235 kg row: 7.8 s, 230 km/h, gross 1,650 kg, wheels listed, Front, transverse, 7.26 kg/hp. The 1,275 kg row: 7.2 s, 210 km/h, gross not measured, wheels not measured, 7.50 kg/hp. Same 170 hp / 125 kW @ 7,600, 174 Nm @ 6,200, 1,797 cc, compression 10, 81 × 87.2, fuel 95. 1.8 AT 170 hp is the Automatic 4 sibling of that 1,797 cc engine; 0–100, top speed, and kerb are not measured, so the AT cannot be ranked on the clock.

Buy 3 generation 1.8 MT 142 hp if you want measured consumption on a Coupe. The 1,147 kg row is the only 3 generation car with city 9.4 / highway 7.6 / mixed 8.7. 142 hp (104 kW) @ 6,300, 172 Nm @ 5,200, 1,834 cc, fuel 92, compression 9.2, 81 × 89. Versus 170 hp you give up 28 hp and 2 Nm and 17.2 hp/l (77.4 vs 94.6); 0–100 is not measured, so do not infer it from the 170 hp manuals. The second 1.8 MT 142 hp is 1,190 kg (8.38 kg/hp) with consumption not measured. Two 1.8 AT 142 hp rows match the 142 hp engine on Automatic 4; kerb, 0–100, consumption not measured.

Buy 2 generation 1.8 MT / 1.8 AT if the window is 1989–1993 Coupe and 140 hp is enough. Same 1,834 cc, 140 hp (103 kW) @ 6,300, 180 Nm @ 5,000 — 2 hp below and 8 Nm above the later 142 hp 1.8. Mixed 9 vs 8.7 on 3 generation 142 hp 1.8 MT (1,147 kg): +0.3 l/100 km. Kerb 1,160 or 1,190 kg on the two 1.8 MT rows; 1.8 AT kerb not measured. Tank not measured.

Buy 1 generation 1.6 MT 120 hp if you want the strongest Hatchback 3-door. 120 hp from 1,590 cc (75.5 hp/l), fuel 92, mixed 8.6 — 0.1 below 3 generation 142 hp mixed 8.7 and 0.4 below 2 generation mixed 9. One 1.6 MT 120 hp row lists kerb 1,084 kg (9.03 kg/hp); others list gross 1,055 kg with kerb not measured. 1.6 MT 115 hp is 5 hp less (72.3 hp/l) with the same 9 / 7.8 / 8.6 consumption where listed. Automatic twins: 1.6 AT 120 hp and 1.6 AT 115 hp; consumption not measured on AT.

Buy 1.5 MT or 1.5 AT only if 85 hp is the point. 1,488 cc, 63 kW, 3 valves per cylinder (the only 3-valve Integra here), 57.1 hp/l, compression 9.2, 74 × 86.5. Fuel, torque, rpm, consumption, mass, tank: not measured. Versus 1.6 MT 120 hp you are 35 hp down on 102 cc less.

Manual vs Automatic inside a generation does not change peak hp on matched pairs (85, 115, 120, 140, 142, 170, 200). It changes gear type: Manual 5 (older) or Manual 6 (Turbo MT) versus Automatic 4 or Variable. Drive never leaves FWD. Problems and reliability are not in this catalogue — not measured — so a buying choice cannot be argued from failure rates here.

Short ranking by what the numbers actually buy: Type S for 324 hp / 5.4 s / 275 km/h; 1.5 i Turbo MT for 200 hp / 192 Nm from 1,500 rpm without Type S mass; 3 generation 1.8 MT 197 hp for 1,120 kg and 6.7 s without a turbo; 1.8 MT 170 hp for 94.6 hp/l on 95 fuel; 1.8 MT 142 hp (1,147 kg) for the only 3 generation mpg-style figures; 2 generation 1.8 MT for 180 Nm at 5,000 rpm; 1.6 MT 120 hp for Hatchback 3-door; 1.5 MT if 85 hp is the ceiling you want. Anything not listed as measured above is not measured.
