Our Safety Philosophy
Honda is dedicated to offering security for everyone-which means crash protection not just for our own drivers and passengers, but additionally for the occupants of other automobiles, and harm mitigation for pedestrians. We are devoted to identifying and implementing superior designs and features that help improve the security of vehicles on the road.
As a frontrunner, Honda seems past government regulations, finding out real world situations to develop new safety technologies for everyone.
Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) II Body Structure
The Civic's Advanced Compatibility
Engineering™ (ACE™) II body structure is a Honda-exclusive body design
that enhances occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal
collisions. The ACE design utilizes a network of connected structural
elements to distribute crash energy more evenly throughout the front of
the vehicle. This enhanced frontal crash-energy management helps to
reduce the forces transferred to the passenger compartment and can help
to more evenly disperse the forces transferred to other vehicles in a
crash.
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD)
The anti-lock braking (ABS) system
uses a special modulator to pulse the brakes to help prevent wheel
lockup. This helps the driver retain steering control when braking hard.
The Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) system balances the braking
forces at each wheel according to how the car is dynamically loaded.
Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
The Civic enhances its visibility to others by incorporating Daytime Running Lights (DRL) up front.
Dual-Stage, Multiple-Threshold Front Airbags (SRS)
The Civic is equipped with
dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags (SRS). One or both of these
airbags will be deployed only in the event of a sufficient frontal
impact. If deployed, these airbags are capable of being inflated at
different rates depending on crash severity, seat-belt usage and/or
other factors. Front airbags are designed to supplement the seat belts
to help reduce the likelihood of head and upper body injuries in frontal
crashes.
Front 3-Point Seat Belts with Automatic Tensioning System
All front and rear seating positions
have 3-point seat belts that ride across the lap and chest to help
restrain occupants during sudden stops or impact. The front seats
feature an automatic tensioning system.
SmartVent™ Front Side Airbags
In the event of a moderate-to-severe side impact, the SmartVent™
side airbag is designed to deploy and inflate quickly to maximize
potential protection for properly seated occupants, helping to protect
the driver's or front passenger's upper body from injury, or vent before
fully inflating if an occupant is in the side airbag deployment path,
thereby decreasing the likelihood for an airbag-related injury.
Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LATCH): Lower Anchors (2nd-Row Outboard), Tether Anchors (2nd-Row All)
The rear seats feature the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) mounting system for use with compatible child seats.
Side Curtain Airbags with Rollover Sensors
To help reduce the likelihood of head
and neck injuries for outboard occupants in side collisions, all Civic
models feature side curtain airbags with rollover sensor. The side
airbag module is positioned along the side of the headliner. In the
event of a sufficient side impact, this system will activate to help
provide protection for both front and rear outboard passengers.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
This system monitors the pressure in all four tires and alerts the driver when pressure in any tire becomes significantly low.
Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) with Traction Control
VSA® can brake individual
wheels and/or reduce engine power in the event of oversteer or
understeer to help regain the driver's intended path. The system also
features a traction-control function to help prevent wheelspin during
acceleration
