New Vehicles

Collision Mitigation Braking System

Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)

Using a millimeter-wave radar sensor, the Collision Mitigation Braking System is able to identify slowing or stopped vehicles ahead and, in certain circumstances, will automatically brake if the driver takes no action.

Forward Collision Warning

Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

FCW, which works alongside CMBS, can detect straight-ahead vehicles with its forward-facing camera. Should you fail to react, CMBS will then implement automatic braking.

Lane Departure Warning

Lane Departure Warning (LDW):

With its camera, LDW is capable of recognizing lane markings; if the system thinks you are unintentionally drifting from your lane, it’ll will utilize both visual and audible warnings to alert you of your movement. Check out Honda LaneWatch™ as well!

Adaptive Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC):

While also acting as a traditional cruise control that lets you set a predetermined speed, ACC goes one step further by also allowing you to set a distance interval, which it will then maintain through automatic braking and acceleration of your vehicle.

Lane Keeping Assist System

Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

At speeds of 45 mph and higher, LKAS uses steering torque to help keep your vehicle centered in its lane.

Road Departure Mitigation System

Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM)

If the system thinks you’re leaving the road unintentionally or switching lanes without using a signal, RDM can apply steering torque to return your vehicle to its previous position.
