Acura said it “will build on the success of the Integra as an additional gateway model to the Acura performance lineup” and confirmed that it will feature a turbocharged engine.
Aside from the styling, the big unknown is where it will be made. Honda manufactures the similarly sized HR-V in Mexico, while the $34,195 Integra sedan is built in Ohio. Both are built on variations of a shared platform that the ADX will likely utilize.
