About ACURA Integra

This vehicle debuted in Japan in February 1985 as the Honda Quint Integra, available only through Honda’s Japanese dealership sales channel Honda Verno before going on sale in North America a year later as part of the then-new luxury Acura lineup. The three-door liftback was the only model available at first, with a five-door model arriving in October 1985. The four-door saloon bodystyle was introduced in Japan in the autumn of 1986. Only the liftback versions were sold in the United States. Most versions were powered by a 1.6 L DOHC 16-valve four-cylinder engine. The engine was the vehicle’s most publicized feature, as DOHC, multi-valve engines were not common in entry-level models at the time. In most European countries, only the five-door liftback was available as a replacement for the Honda Quint. Typical for European Integras, only the 1.5-liter 85 PS (63 kW; 84 hp) 4 Weber carburetors engine was available. The Rover 416i five-door liftback model was also sold in Australia. Except for the United Kingdom, Honda did not offer the more powerful 1.6 DOHC fuel injection engine (known as the Integra EX16 in the United Kingdom) in Europe. The ZC engine was also shared with the Honda Concerto, which was sold through a newly established Japanese dealership sales channel called Honda Clio, which sold luxury-oriented products such as the Honda Legend.

In Japan, while the VX and RX-trimmed four-door (DA2) used the 1.5 L EW5 engine, all other model and trim combinations offered only the DOHC ZC engine, with a carburetor on GS, ZS, and LS trim packages, and PGM-FI on the top level GSi three- and five-door, and the RSi three-door trim package. Vehicles equipped with a carburetor achieved 15.4 km/L (44 mpgimp; 36 mpgUS) in Japanese Government emissions tests, and 115 PS (84.6 kW; 113.4 bhp) and 26 km/L (73 mpgimp; 61 mpgUS) at consistent speeds above 60 km/h (37.3 mph). Vehicles with PGM-FI earned 14.4 km/L (41 mpgimp; 34 mpgUS) in Japanese Government emissions tests with 135 PS (99.3 kW; 133.2 bhp), and 24.5 km/L (69 mpgimp; 58 mpgUS) above 60 km/h (37.3 mph). In Japan, the Integra was the entry-level marketing position at Honda Verno, below the sporty Prelude and larger, luxury-focused Vigor.
