Honda CR-V Safety Features
The Honda CR-V was designed to have plenty of space for your whole crew. Whether that’s your crew of tiny kiddos or your friends (maybe they’re the same people?), the CR-V wants to keep all of you safe. And this vehicle is loaded with advanced safety features designed to do just that.
Let’s take a closer look at all the safety features for the 2017 Honda CR-V in this guide from Braman Honda of Palm Beach.
Standard Features
Safety shouldn’t be a mere privilege. That’s why so many excellent safety features come standard in the 2017 Honda CR-V. To start, the SUV is equipped with several advanced airbags and an Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body. This rigid structure includes crumple zones that can absorb and deflect collision impacts.
The SUV is also equipped with Vehicle Stability Assist™ and Traction Control, an Anti-lock Braking System, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, and Brake Assist. In addition, the vehicle comes with a standard Tire Pressure Monitoring System and Daytime Running Lights.
While other manufacturers make you pay extra, Honda provides the Multi-Angle Rearview Camera with Guidelines as a standard feature in the CR-V. Truly, you’re getting the most bang for your buck in terms of protection.
Optional Features
The 2017 CR-V also has a plethora of optional add-ons for you to choose from that take your safety technology to the next level. These safety features include (but aren’t limited to) the following…
- Collision Mitigation Braking System™
Say you’re hitting the brakes just a second too late. To come to a fully effective stop, you’re going to need a little extra stopping power. Well, the Collision Mitigation Braking System™ knows just when it’s an emergency. In that case, it’ll apply the extra brake force that you need to prevent a collision.
- Forward Collision Warning
This system is designed to let you know of a potential front-end collision before it happens. Using radar technology, Forward Collision Warning monitors the traffic around you and can sense when there’s the potential for a collision. By giving you advanced audible warnings, the system can help prevent a collision.
- Lane Departure Warning
This system lets you know if you’re veering out of your lane without signaling. This is to prevent you from accidentally drifting. It’s also a good reminder for when you’re distracted to use your signals to let other drivers on the road know your intentions and to keep all of you safe.
- Blind Spot Information System
Just as the name suggests, the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®) is related to your blind spots. If you’re trying to switch lanes but another car is following where you can’t see, BLIS® will promptly inform you.
