Key design elements include the frameless Diamond Pentagon Grille and signature Jewel LED headlights. The base trim is rounded out with elegant 17-inch alloy wheels.

The Integra Type S takes on a more muscular and aggressive look. Wide fender flares give it a broader stance, while triple exhaust outlets and larger front air ducts signal its racing pedigree. This trim also features exclusive 19-inch alloy wheels wrapped in high-performance tires to ensure maximum grip.
