Performance, power and 0-100 km/h
Both cars record the same 0-100 km/h time of 7.2 seconds. 2025 Kia Forte GT 1.6T has the higher listed output at 201 hp; 2025 Acura Integra A-Spec 1.5T is rated at 200 hp, a difference of 1 hp. The torque figures follow 2025 Kia Forte GT 1.6T at 265 Nm and 2025 Acura Integra A-Spec 1.5T at 260 Nm. These figures describe straight-line potential only; they do not establish braking performance, ride quality, steering response or durability under repeated hard use.
Range, battery, charging and efficiency
Their recorded consumption is identical at 7.6 L/100km. Test cycle, temperature, wheel size and charging conditions can materially affect these results, so only figures measured on the same basis should be treated as directly comparable.
Dimensions, cargo space and towing
2025 Kia Forte GT 1.6T provides the larger quoted cargo volume: 434 litres versus 374 litres, a difference of 60 litres. 2025 Kia Forte GT 1.6T is 91 mm longer overall. Exterior size is not a benefit by itself: a longer body may create useful room, but cargo shape, rear-seat space and ease of parking still require a physical inspection.
Price and overall assessment
2025 Kia Forte GT 1.6T has the lower listed starting price at $25,090, compared with $35,800 for 2025 Acura Integra A-Spec 1.5T. 2025 Kia Forte GT 1.6T leads in more of the shared headline fields, but that is not a universal verdict: a buyer should weight price, performance, range and utility rather than simply count category wins. The assessment is based on the specifications shown here; it is not presented as a two-car road test.
