Acura, Honda’s luxury division in the US, has officially confirmed the Integra Type S will be going on sale sometime in the second quarter of 2023.

Details regarding the high-performance Integra Type S are currently scarce for the moment while it undergoes a myriad of final tests.

What has been confirmed, though, is it will be running a high-revving 2.0-litre VTEC turbocharged engine.

Endowed with more than 300hp, the engine will be mated to a six-speed manual gearbox to manage power delivery sent to the front wheels while a limited-slip differential tames torque levels.

Acura, in March 2022, resurrected the Integra name tag and the car has been confirmed to be rolling out from the Japanese carmaker’s Ohio facility in the US – only in left-hand-drive version.

The Integra Type S will sport a lift-back rear end with four doors – doing away with the two-door coupe design it debuted in during the 1990s.

But, if there’s any consolation to be had, at least the new Civic Type R will arrive in our neck of the woods in 2023. Right Honda Malaysia?
