The 1992 Integra is an important vehicle to Acura for the hatchback market segment. The LS is a member of a series of four trim levels for the Integra which include GS, GS-R, LS, and RS. The three-door car with its front-wheel drive is positioned to aggressively fill this niche for Acura. There is strong competition from vehicles from Kia.
