CAMARO WILL SURVIVE! INTEGRA TYPE S + MORE! WEEKLY UPDATE

EV Channels Review

This weekly update covers a wide range of automotive news, with a significant focus on future product plans and enthusiast-oriented vehicles. The most detailed segment discusses the upcoming Acura Integra Type S, which is confirmed for the 2024 model year. The reviewer highlights its expected powertrain, a 2.0-liter VTEC Turbo with over 300 horsepower, exclusively paired with a six-speed manual and limited-slip differential, essentially a more luxurious Civic Type R. While acknowledging the lack of AWD or an automatic option, the reviewer praises the Type S for offering Type R performance with a more mature design and enhanced street comfort, making it ideal for daily driving without a massive rear wing. Pricing is estimated to be around $50,000. Other key topics include potential sub-brands for Camaro and Escalade, Lexus's development of an EV manual transmission for a potential LFA successor, Toyota's commitment to GR models and hydrogen fuel cell technology with the Corolla Cross H2 Concept, the discontinuation of the CH-R in North America, and updates on the Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance, Alfa Romeo's electrification plans, the Ram Revolution EV teaser, Polestar 2 power upgrades, and Volvo's XC40/C40 improvements.
