If you are too lazy to click think link, here is the official illustration / photo from Acura:
At least that rear end looks nicer than the Civic hatch's...

With this announcement I'd put my money on the base trim being basically the sister car to the Civic Si (205hp 1.5T, FWD, Manual/DCT) while the Type S will either be the K20C4 at 272hp or the K20C1 at 306hp with SH-AWD.

A short chubby midget 4 door coupe | 2022 Civic sedan is 184 inches long, A5 Sportback is 187 inches so figure the Integra to have a similar silhouette to the Sportback. I can't see the Integra being smaller than the Civic's dimensions especially with today's preview image. Figure a slightly lower and longer roofline compared to the Civic sedan with all the same hard points otherwise.
Original 5 door Integra was 172 inches so growing a foot in 35 years is pretty par for the course unless you're a Miata. The 3 door was 169 inches so it's not really THAT much bigger once you adjust for era. Even a 911 is 10 inches longer than its mid-80s version.

I wonder if it will have tlx profile, as I walked by a tlx today and the side profile is still awkward. Short fat and stubby ass but a real long hood, I remember seeing how it looked like a shoe, there was over a feet of over hang on the bumper in front of the front wheels. |

Considering the lacklustre TLX Type S, I won't hold my breath for it.

Assuming same suspension architecture as 11th gen hatch (likely) it's strut front and multi-link rear.

the old 5 door pretty much looked like the 3 door, proportions wise too...
I do hope they make a special white out package like this:
tbh.... why can't the just make another MK1 Integra........... or make a Modern DC ............ stupid world wide regulations.

There's only so many ways to design a car (without trying too hard to be unique, thus making it ugly), if not the Genesis, it's gonna look like another car that can be pulled up from a catalogue of thousands of other cars that have been made in the history of time.
