Honda Sensing Technology
Honda Sensing technologies are designed to help make your drive safer. With intuitive technology and design, we've created a way forward that we can all feel good about. Whether you're driving or sitting in the passenger seat, feel confident in the latest in safety innovation from Honda.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system
The available FCW system that is integrated with CMBS is designed to detect the presence of vehicles in front of you and issue alerts if you're approaching with too much speed. If you fail to respond to the alerts, the CMBS is triggered into operation.
Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)
To help reduce the likelihood or severity of a frontal impact, the available CMBS is engineered to apply brake pressure if you don't slow down when it senses you're at risk of a collision. If it still senses an imminent collision, CMBS is designed to brake firmly.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system
The available LDW system is designed to monitor vehicle lane position and alert you if your vehicle drifts into a new lane when you haven't signaled.
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
The available LKAS is engineered to gently correct your steering if you begin to leave a detected lane without signaling, applying torque progressively to the steering to help guide you back to the centre of the lane.
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) system
The available Road Departure Mitigation system is designed to help steer and even apply the brakes to help keep the vehicle from leaving the road.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
The available ACC system is designed to keep a set speed and set following interval behind the vehicle detected ahead of yours, including the ability to start and stop the vehicle with the flow of traffic.
Safety
At Honda, we strive to provide a high level of standard safety features to help ensure the safety of occupants, other drivers and even pedestrians. This added peace of mind helps our drivers maintain the confidence to enjoy every road to the fullest.
Controlled Braking
To assist with safe stopping, the 4-wheel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is designed to help you maintain control under hard braking conditions, while Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) helps to optimize braking power based on weight distribution inside the vehicle. In addition, Brake Assist is engineered to help improve braking performance by applying full brake pressure when a panic stop is detected.
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Traction Control
Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control is designed to sense and help correct oversteer and understeer scenarios to enhance handling and cornering stability, while Traction Control is designed to minimize wheel spin when accelerating on loose or slippery surfaces, helping to inspire greater driver confidence.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
To promote enhanced safety and fuel efficiency, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System continually checks the air pressure in each tire. If pressure drops in any tire, the driver receives a dashboard alert.
Hill Start Assist
When you take your foot off the brake, this feature is engineered to temporarily maintain brake pressure to help prevent your Pilot from starting to roll backwards when stopped on an incline.
Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure
The highly innovative, next generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure is engineered to help disperse frontal impact energy to enhance occupant protection, while more effectively controlling it in severe collisions to help prevent intrusion into the passenger cabin.
Child safety
The Pilot features childproof rear door locks, as well as rear seat Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH), which give you a simple and convenient method to install compatible child safety seats without using the vehicle's seat belt system.
Pedestrian safety
Innovative pedestrian safety features include an energy-absorbing hood and front fenders and breakaway wiper pivots.
Seat belt safety
The Pilot helps prepare you for the unexpected with 3-point height-adjustable front seat belts with automatic tensioning system and 3-point rear seat belts.
Six standard airbags
The cabin of the Pilot contains six standard airbags. It features an i-SRS front airbag system as well as side curtain airbags with rollover sensors, which are designed to deploy the side curtain airbags in the event of a rollover.
