“As we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Acura brand, we’re not just honoring our history, we’re accelerating toward a future that will continue to be defined by daring innovation, a deep commitment to Acura customers and our Precision Crafted Performance brand DNA,” said Mike Langel, assistant vice president of Acura National Sales.

In conjunction with the milestone, Acura returns to its hometown sportscar race with the Acura Integra 40 Racer, a first-generation Integra tribute build honoring the brand’s first race car–the Comptech Integra No. 48–which won consecutive IMSA International Sedan Series Manufacturers’ and Drivers’ Championships from 1987 to 1990. The recreated race car was built by Honda Racing Corporation US (HRC US) and will make its debut at the 51st Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach [16-19 April 2026 – AutoCrat.]
