  • Collision Mitigation Braking System™ gets SUPERIOR rating for frontal crash prevention and is standard equipment on all nine models as part of AcuraWatch™ and #honda Sensing®
  • All fully tested #acura and #honda vehicles also earn top U.S. government crash-test ratings

Three #acura models and six #honda models have earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) TOP #safety PICK (TSP) rating or better for 2022, with eight achieving the pinnacle TOP #safety PICK+ (TSP+) rating, including both the all-new 2022 Civic Sedan and Hatchback. Contributing to the top ratings, each of the nine models achieve the highest possible rating of "GOOD" in all six #iihs crashworthiness tests. In addition, all feature AcuraWatch™ or #honda Sensing® driver-assistive and #safety technology as standard equipment, earning "SUPERIOR" ratings for vehicle-to-vehicle frontal crash prevention.

AcuraWatch™ and #honda Sensing® are now available or standard on every #acura and #honda automobile model, and there are well over five million #acura and #honda vehicles on U.S. roads today featuring these comprehensive suites of #safety and driver-assistive technologies, which now include Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™) with Pedestrian Detection; Forward Collision Warning; Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) incorporating Lane Departure Warning (LDW); Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS); and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).

All #acura and #honda vehicles benefit from Honda's proprietary Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, designed to protect occupants in a wide variety of frontal collisions, along with advanced supplemental restraint systems, such as pretensioning front seatbelts, and front, side, knee and side-curtain airbags.

To earn the 2022 TSP award, a vehicle must earn "GOOD" crashworthiness ratings in all test modes, including in the challenging passenger-side small overlap test. A top-rated vehicle must also offer front crash prevention that earns an "ADVANCED" or "SUPERIOR" rating in both vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian testing, as well as "GOOD" or "ACCEPTABLE" ratings for available headlights though TSP+ rated vehicles must achieve the same "GOOD" or "ACCEPTABLE" rating for their standard headlights. Separately, every #acura and #honda model that has been fully evaluated in the NHTSA's 2022 model year NCAP testing has received a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score.
