Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Malibu than the Acura Integra, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Acura Integra and the Chevrolet Malibu in the front seats.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Acura Integra will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Chevrolet Malibu, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Acura Integra is a little narrower than the Chevrolet Malibu, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. The Acura Integra is slightly shorter than the Chevrolet Malibu, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Acura Integra has a larger turning radius than the Chevrolet Malibu, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

When it comes to horsepower, the Acura Integra is somewhat more powerful than the Chevrolet Malibu.

Powertrain
The Acura Integra has much less torque than the Chevrolet Malibu, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.
