The 2023 Integra sedan is one the first Acura models to come with an illuminated front emblem, as seen with this official image from the automaker. It will be optional and priced around a couple hundred.
Not only does it look great but could improve safety by making your Acura more noticeable on the road. It's what Acura had in mind from the start. Here's what they said in a patent filed on illuminated emblems like it back in 2019: “…exterior vehicle emblems often cannot be seen at night because they are obscured by glare from the vehicle’s headlights, which can prevent recognition of the vehicle make or model and detract from the aesthetic function of the emblem. Interior vehicle emblems suffer from the same difficulties since interior vehicle lighting does not sufficiently illuminate the emblems at night.”
