Production of the 2023 Acura Integra Has Begun

It's been quite some time since we've seen a new model from Acura, which only makes the arrival of the reborn Integra this year that much more of a big deal for the automaker - this even if fans have been disappointed about some of the announced features so far.

Official launch date is now just weeks away, and today Acura announced that production of the 2023 Integra is now officially underway at the company’s U.S. plant in Marysville, Ohio.

The Integra is built on the same assembly line that puts together the TLX sedan. The Honda Accord is also assembled inside the same facility. And today marks the first time a car bearing the Integra name is built in the United States, because in its previous life, the model was assembled in Japan. The Integra becomes the fifth car in the Acura lineup to be produced in Ohio.
