Sure, but AFAIK there’s no suspension components on there other than coilovers, so the suspension geometry probably hasn’t changed much from the stock car.
For what it’s worth, the yellow HRC prototype car is running 19x9.5 +45, so Acura thinks it’s fine to run a somewhat lower offset in exchange for wider track width.
I'm expecting no exterior changes to the Type S also because they've already shown the HRC Integra parts and the new splitter wouldn't fit if the front fascia changed.
Price will probably go up, but maybe not by a ton. The 2020 Civic Type R added Honda Sensing (which is pretty expensive tech) and the price went up less than $1k.
Type R has historically gotten refreshes a year after the other civics do, same thing happened with the FK8. So either the FL5 gets refreshed this year or it gets dropped.
Also Honda shows a black version of the Type R interior a week before announcing the Integra is getting refreshed đź‘€. Any chance this becomes an option on the 2026 Type S? Especially now that rumors are saying 2025 might be the last year for the Type R?
From Honda’s 2025 automotive outlook press release:
“The Integra will receive exterior and interior changes to maintain its leadership position in the premium sport compact segment.”
The way this is worded makes it seem like there won’t be any powertrain changes, so maybe a hybrid isn’t...
It seems like the mid-cycle refresh for the Integra could possibly be coming up in 2026 since the Civic had its MMC in 2025, so I was curious to get folks' thoughts on what could change. I'm basing these speculations on changed with the 2025 Civic Si and also what the Acura ADX has that the...
Looks like TEP is completely sold out based on the motoring obsession tracker, and I’m willing to take the slightly higher msrp for the 2025. I know there’s no changes but I’m assuming small tweaks have probably been done in the manufacturing line based on the first year’s learnings (e.g. less...
Anyone know when the 2025 Type S’s are gonna start coming to dealers and what the production numbers might be like? The Acura inventory site shows none in the entire state at this point, and the motoring obsession tracker is showing fewer and fewer cars available every day (which I’m assuming...
The fact that they put in the resources to develop this makes it seem likely that this car will stick around for at least a few more years. Also, this makes it seem like there won’t be a major refresh in 2026, because then the front intakes, lip, etc won’t fit the new car.
Is anyone else having problems with this tracker? At a few of the dealers nearby I see this tracker show inventory but there’s nothing listed on their websites.
