16,500-Mile Update in Our Long Term 2023 Acura Integra Long Term

2023/12/18

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.
