The high-performance Acura Integra Type S has been named Performance Car of the Year by the editors of Road & Track for its incredible power and dynamic performance paired with premium features and refinement. The flexible 5-door liftback took the top spot in the Under $100k category over significantly higher priced and more powerful, rear-wheel drive coupes.
The 2024 Road & Track Performance Car of the Year award adds to the next-gen Integra's impressive list of prestigious industry and media honors, which includes the distinguished 2023 North American Car of the YearTM and the 2024 Car and Driver 10Best Cars awards. This is the second time Acura has been honored with a Road & Track Performance Car of the Year award, with the Acura NSX taking Performance Car of the Year honors in 2017.
“Being honoured with the Road & Track Performance Car of the Year, after receiving accolades as a Car and Driver’s 10 Best Cars and North American Car of the Year, is the icing on the cake that cements the Integra as a world-class performance car,” said James Marchand Assistant Vice President Acura Canada. “The vehicle is a testament to our Integra Type S manufacturing and development teams who continue to create outstanding Acura vehicles based on our commitment to precision crafted performance.”
About the Road & Track Performance Car of the Year Award
Now in its 11th year, the Road & Track Performance Car of the Year is chosen based on four days of intense testing on the road and the racetrack. The Road & Track editorial team evaluates each car based on a combination of emotion, performance and value.
This year, testing consisted of two days spent lapping the 2-mile West course at Thunderhill Raceway in Willows, California, followed by two days tackling the back roads of northern California’s Napa Valley. To be considered for the competition, cars needed to be brand new or significantly revised for the 2024 model year.
