Super TestCar reviews - Honda - Integra - 3-dr hatchHonda modelsWhat's Changed26 Dec 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON HONDA calls this an all-new Integra, and for once the term seems to be more than a misused PR hack's flight of fancy. The styling has obviously been revamped with those notched head and talights a striking feature, vehicle length is up by 5mm although wheelbase stays the same, width is increased by 15mm and height is up a substantial 65mm, which helps explain the tall and narrow looks. Other significant dimension changes include a 40mm higher hip point for easier exit and entry, and a much-needed 25mm increase in legroom. On the mechanical side there is an all-new 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine employing Honda's i-VTEC and LEV technology, substantial suspension changes and body rigidity and stiffness has been dramatically improved. There's also been an improvement to safety equipment with a passenger airbag now standard. Did you know?Despite the changes, the weight of the Integra has climbed by a mere 20kgAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
