At Brown Honda, your safety is our priority. That’s why we proudly feature Honda Sensing® in popular models like the Honda CR-V, Honda Accord, and Honda Pilot. Honda Sensing® is a comprehensive suite of advanced safety and driver-assistive technologies designed to enhance your driving experience and keep you and your passengers protected. Whether you’re navigating city streets in a Honda Civic or highways in a Honda Passport, Honda Sensing® gives you the confidence to drive smarter and safer.

What is Honda Sensing®?

Honda Sensing® is an intelligent system of safety technologies available in models like the Honda Odyssey and Honda HR-V, that helps you stay aware of your surroundings and avoid potential hazards. The suite uses radar, cameras, and sensors to provide a 360-degree view of the road, alerting you to unexpected obstacles and even assisting with braking, steering, and maintaining your lane.

Key Features of Honda Sensing® Available on All Honda Vehicles

Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)

CMBS™, available in the Honda CR-V and Honda Accord, helps to reduce the likelihood of a frontal collision by applying brake pressure when an unavoidable collision is detected. If the system senses that a frontal collision is possible, it alerts the driver and can automatically apply the brakes to minimize impact.

Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM)

The RDM system, standard on models like the Honda Pilot and Honda Civic, monitors road markings and can determine if you’re unintentionally leaving your lane. It provides steering assistance to help keep you on the road and can even apply brakes if necessary to prevent you from veering off the road.

The Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS™) and Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM) are key safety features in the Honda Sensing® suite, designed to reduce collision risks and keep you safely in your lane.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

ACC, found in the Honda Passport and Honda Odyssey, allows you to maintain a set speed while keeping a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you. If the detected vehicle slows down, ACC will automatically adjust your speed to maintain the distance, resuming your set speed once traffic conditions improve.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps Honda vehicles maintain a safe following distance from detected vehicles, ensuring smoother and safer highway driving.

Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

LKAS, available on the Honda HR-V and Honda Accord, detects lane markings and provides gentle steering input to help keep you centered in your lane. This feature reduces driver fatigue on long drives and enhances safety by preventing unintentional lane drifting.

Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR)

TSR, available on the Honda CR-V and Honda Accord, uses a small camera to detect and recognize road signs, including speed limits, and displays the information on the driver’s display. This feature helps drivers stay aware of posted speed limits and important traffic signs, reducing the chances of missed speed changes or road signs during driving.

Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) and Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) work together to enhance safety by keeping the vehicle centered in its lane and notifying drivers of posted speed limits.

Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

Using a small camera mounted at the top of the front windshield, FCW scans the road ahead and can alert you to potential collisions with vehicles detected ahead. This feature is available in models like the Honda CR-V and Honda Pilot, providing visual and audio warnings to help you take action to avoid an accident.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

LDW, featured in the Honda Odyssey and Honda Passport, can detect when your vehicle is making an unintentional lane departure without a turn signal. If you start to drift from your lane, the system provides visual and audio alerts, allowing you to make corrections before you leave the road or enter another lane.

Additional Features Available on Select Honda Models

Blind Spot Information System (BSI)

Available on select models like the Honda CR-V and Honda Accord, the Blind Spot Information System helps you detect vehicles in your blind spots. When you attempt to change lanes, the system provides visual alerts if a vehicle is detected, ensuring safer lane changes.

The Blind Spot Information System alerts the driver when a vehicle is detected in the adjacent lane, enhancing safety during lane changes.

Cross Traffic Monitor

The Cross Traffic Monitor, featured in the Honda Pilot and Honda Odyssey, assists when you’re reversing out of parking spaces. It detects vehicles approaching from either side and alerts you with an audible warning and visual signals on the rearview camera display.

The Cross Traffic Monitor alerts drivers to approaching vehicles from the side while reversing, enhancing parking safety.

Auto High-Beam Headlights

Available in models like the Honda Civic and Honda CR-V, Auto High-Beam Headlights automatically switch between low and high beams depending on traffic conditions. This feature enhances nighttime visibility without causing glare for other drivers.
