Is the Acura Integra only manual?
In the United States, the Acura Integra is not offered with an automatic transmission; the lineup is designed around a six-speed manual gearbox across all trims, including the performance-oriented Type S.
Transmission options and what buyers should know
Below is a concise breakdown of the transmission situation for the Integra in the current U.S. market.
- Six-speed manual transmission is standard on all U.S.-market Integra trims, including the base model, Premium, A-Spec, and the Type S.
- No automatic transmission is offered for the Integra in the U.S. at this time (no CVT, DCT, or other automatic options).
For buyers, this means a focus on driving engagement and manual shifting rather than the convenience of an automatic in the Integra lineup.
The Integra Type S
The high-performance Integra Type S, introduced after the base model, continues the manual-only tradition and uses a six-speed manual gearbox tuned for sportier driving. There is no automatic option available for the Type S in the U.S.
Global market variations
Outside the United States, transmission offerings for the Integra can vary by country and model year. Acura has not announced a formal automatic option for the Integra in major international markets as of 2024–2025, but prospective buyers abroad should verify local specifications with dealers to confirm what transmissions are available where they live.
Summary
Across the current U.S. model years, the Acura Integra is manual-transmission only, with a six-speed manual offered on all trims, including the Type S. If automatic shifting is a priority, buyers would need to look at other models or brands, while enthusiasts who value a traditional manual experience will find the Integra aligned with that preference.
