ACURA INTEGRA INNOYATION
These days a lot ofcar manufacturers seem to spend their time building an impressive image. Acura has a different priority. Building an impressive car. A car that's every bit as exciting to drive as it is to own. Because we know that no matter how impressive a car looks on paper, it's nothing if it's not equally as impressive on the road.
AUTOMOTIVE HISTORY CAN BE SOMETHING YOU READ ABOUT OR SOMETHING YOU PARTICIPATE IN
At Acura, innovation isn't just a word. It's a lifestyle. Which means everyone involved in the development ofthe Integra-from the first engineer to the last person on the assembly lineshares a common goal. To offer you the best possible driving experience. Needless to say, developing a car like the Acura Integra-whose1.8-liter 16-valve engine design is considered by many to be the most innovative and advanced in its class-isnotaneasy task. But it is made easier by our hands on involvement with the most competitive, technologically demanding automotive arena in the world-the Formula One racing circuit Racing at speeds exceeding 200 MPH, on tracks all over the world, has led to a series ofremarkable advancements in engine technology.
The kind oftechnical advancements that not only help to make our race cars faster, but our street cars better. For example, the performance advantages of light weight engine components, programmed fuel injection and the four valves per cylinder technology found in the1.8-liter Integra engine were refined as a result of ur Formula One racing expenence.
Of course,what we learn on the race track must still prove it self capable of surviving the test track. Which is why every Acura design must endure the rigorous twists and turns of a test facility called the Tochigi Proving Grounds. At Tochigi weve painstakingly recreated just about every driving condition you can imagine. And some you probably can't, Rest assured, ifAcura can build an automobile that can stand the test ofTochigi, it can stand the test oftime.
THE INTEGRA: AERODYNAMICALLY DESIGNED TO CATCH THE EYE AND CARESS THE WIND.
Don't let the good looks ofthe Acura Integra fool you. Everything you see is there for good reason. Its aggressive wedge shape, low sloping hood, narrow halogen headlights, flush fitting glass, sashless doors, low beitline, and smooth underbody all combine to make the Integra a model of aerodynamic efficiency. With that said, you probably won't be surprised tolearn that the Integra cuts through the wind with a low drag coefficient of just 0.32 for the 3-door and 0.34 for the 4-door. But perhaps even more impressive than the Integra sports sedan's low amount of wind resistance is its exceptionally high amount ofvisibility.
Sit inside the Integra and you'll quickly notice how easy it is to see outside the Integra. That's because ofthe driving compartment's expansive "greenhouse" design.The slim roof pillars and remarkably large window areas combine to give you outstanding visibility, both frontwards and backwards, thus enhancing safety. Ofcourse, its safety features go well beyond high visibility. Every Integra is seam welded in critical areas and has reinforced door pillars to provide extra strength.Three point front and rear outboard seat belts come standard. An Anti-Lock Braking (ALB) system for hard braking situations is standard on GS models. In addition, the Integra is manufactured to the highest standards for quality, corrosion resistance and durability-including a specia13-coat, 3-bake painting process that provides a beautiful, lustrous and lasting exterior fiish. If you're looking for acar that shines as well on the road as it does in the showroom, look no further than the Acura Integra.
