Creating safer, more people-friendly vehicles
Honda’s extremely high safety standards reflect a total commitment to continuously improving the safety of drivers, passengers and pedestrians. Through advanced crash testing, computer analysis and the dedicated development of advanced safety technology, Honda strives to create greater harmony between people and vehicles to establish a safer and more comfortable mobility society.
Greater safety through real-world testing
Honda’s extensive collision safety measures enhance the protection of people both inside and outside the vehicle. During a collision, Honda G-force Control technology crumples the car body in a controlled manner to absorb the energy of impact and maintain a survival zone around occupants. This technology is refined through computer simulation and extensive real world car-to-car collision testing at Honda's indoor omnidirectional Crash Test Safety Facility, which allows extremely accurate analysis of complex real-world crash situations. Through these and other efforts, Honda strives to achieve the highest possible all-around safety standards.
Advanced compatibility body
  In car-to-car collisions, the relative sizes and shapes of the vehicles significantly affect the safety of occupants. Addressing this issue, Honda developed Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body technology that enhances the protection of passengers in the Honda vehicle while lowering damage to the other vehicle in a collision.
Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMBS) + E-Pretensioners
  Honda’s Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMBS) detects the possibility of frontal collisions with the rear ends of other vehicles and warns the driver to take preventative action. If the driver fails to heed the warning, CMBS helps decelerate the vehicle and E-Pretensioners retract the seatbelts to reduce injury in the event of a collision.
