Of course, that doesn’t mean it will be any less fun to drive than its rivals. Our brief experience behind the wheel suggests the Type S treatment goes a long way toward livening up the Integra’s dynamics, which were already lively. The steering is heavier while remaining responsive and precise, and the wider tires lend a planted feel. By the way, those 265-series Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires are of the grippy high-performance summer variety .
We’ll have to wait to drive the Type S on public roads to judge its ride quality next to the firm Type R, but the turbo four in this package impressed us. It revs eagerly, pulls hard to triple-digit speeds, and even makes plenty of character-adding exhaust pops and crackles.Because this is a Type S and not a Type R, the styling is less extroverted. The Integra lacks the Civic’s giant wing and aggressive-looking vents and scoops, which could be good or bad, depending on your perspective.
With a dash more sophistication than the Honda, the Integra Type S could prove enticing. If it’s priced within a few thousand dollars of the Civic Type R’s $43,990 base, there should be plenty of interest in this alternative Honda hot hatch. We’re eager to find out more and spend more time behind the wheel when the Integra Type S comes closer to reality.

Acura Shame no SH-AWD Kills it for me
Acura Type R powertrain Maybe we'll talk.
Acura Now make it a coupe and people will be interested!
Acura Hopefully the Integra Type S isn’t just a more expensive Civic Type R…which is sort of what I’m fearing it’s going to end up being. Only time will tell I guess.
Acura Did Honda say no shawd or did they just not mention it? Could it be an option?
Acura So🥺🥺 artistic😍😍it would work well with Victor Racing's active smart wing as it is also state of the art craft
Acura Looks cool, but FWD still kills it for me.
Acura We are waiting for s
Acura Not electric, I don't want it
Acura Watch it still have a CVT instead of the 10 speed
Acura That does look pretty good.
Acura at that skyrocketing price point .. you may as well go for the VW GolfR ftw .. AWD; along with a slight ECU tune + mods -an easy stable 400+hp
Acura Acura listened to us! Excited for this car to come out.

Acura The Accord Type-R should be brought back if Honda wants a four-door with an R or S badge. The Civic Type-R should be a two-door and this new Integra Type-S should be a two-door, also. They're stepping on the Accord's toes, while it's just sitting there not being utilized.
