What's the story
Japanese automobile giant Honda has taken the wraps off the 2023 Integra hatchback for the global markets. The coupe is built by the GAC-Honda joint venture and is touted as the more practical version of the standard sedan model.
The sporty coupe draws power from either a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine with a mild-hybrid setup or a 1.5-liter turbocharged unit.
Context
Why does this story matter?
Inspired by the 11th-generation Civic, the Honda Integra hatchback is sold under the Acura nameplate. Currently, in its fifth-generation avatar, the coupe offers the practicality of a large notchback along with the ride and handling characteristics associated with a low-slung sedan body style.
It will be made available in the Chinese market as a part of the joint venture between Honda and GAC.
