1994 ACURA Integra Sedan 1.8L 5MT FWD (170 HP)

Vehicle Overview

While most small-sized sedans were mostly econoboxes on wheels, the Integra was a different kind of vehicle. Despite its family-oriented body shape, it retained most of its coupe sibling features and performances.

The Integra was already known on the market and easy to recognize due to its four-round headlamps. Its front fascia featured an aggressive styling with a low nose and a sharp look enhanced with a large grille placed in the bumper, flanked by the corner-mounted turn signals. From its sides, the Integra sedan looked like a four-door coupe since it retained most of its two-door sibling styling. Its frameless doors and ascending beltline confirmed its sport-oriented behavior. At the back, the car featured the same wide, wrapped-around taillights split between the quarter panels and the trunk lid. Curiously, the carmaker didn’t offer a lip-spoiler on the trunk, but that was available as a dealer option.

Inside, Acura made the same easy-to-reach and understand dashboard, with two large analog dials for the speedometer and tachometer, flanked by the coolant temperature and the fuel level gauges. Most of the trim levels were fitted with an AC unit and a stereo installed in the center stack. The front bucket seats were comfortable and featured adjustable lumbar control. In contrast, the folding bench in the back was suitable only for two short people or children.

Unlike many other vehicles on the market, the Integra sedan featured multilink independent suspension in all corners. Thanks to that, the car’s handling matched the sporty look. Its 1.8-liter powerplant provided the highest specific power on the market. The GSR was only available with a five-speed manual. At the same time, the carmaker offered the base version with a four-speed automatic as well.
