What is the Acura Integra MPG Rating?
The 2023 Acura Integra comes standard with an EPA-estimated 30 city and 37 highway MPG rating.1 Couple this with its 12.4-gallon tank, and you can travel up to an EPA-estimated 458 miles without taking a break.
With a driving range this extensive, exploring New England and its various locations is a breeze. Take a drive up I-95 to explore miles and endless beaches. You can also visit local destinations, Del Frisco’s Grille or Blue Hills Reservation, without seeing major changes to the fuel gauge.
Since the Acura Integra is customizable to fit your specific driving needs, there are several trim levels offered with this model, some of which alter the MPG rating.
For example, the Integra A-Spec with Technology CVT trim level receives an EPA-estimated of 29 city and 36 highway MPG.1 The Integra A-Spec with Technology 6MT trim has an EPA-estimated 26 city and 36 highway MPG.1
What is the CVT & 6MT and How Do They Affect MPG?
The two higher trim levels offered with the 2023 Acura Integra list CVT and 6MT in their name, but what does it mean and why does it affect MPG?
CVT, or Continuously Variable Transmission, is an innovative type of automatic transmission. What is different between this transmission and traditional ones is that there are no fixed gears. Instead, the transmission constantly changes the gear ratio to better fit your driving habits.
The 6MT is another type of transmission offered with the Acura Integra. This 6-speed manual transmission can help give your travels a sporty feel thanks to its short gear ratio. Due to this, you’ll likely feel a jolt of energy when you shift gears.
The choice of transmission can play a role in fuel efficiency, as you can see with the two optional selections you have with the Integra. While the difference in Acura Integra MPG ratings from one transmission to another is minimal, it’s something worth keeping in mind.
How to Improve Fuel Efficiency with the Acura Integra
Want to get the most out of your vehicle’s fuel efficiency? Check out some of these great tips:
- Check your speed: Studies show that faster driving can impact how quickly fuel is used. This is because of tire resistance on the road and the higher RPMs needed to keep you at that speed. It’s estimated that decreasing speed by five to 10 MPH can increase fuel efficiency by up to 14%.
- Avoid short trips: Did you know that short trips use twice as much fuel? That’s because engine and transmission fluid friction increase when the fluids are cooler. As a result, your vehicle has to work harder since it must warm the fluids and get you to your destination.
- Lighten your load: An over-packed vehicle can reduce fuel economy by up to 25%. Removing unnecessary items from the cabin and trunk can help boost efficiency.
