Let’s take a look at the design and features to find out.
Designed with Your Safety in Mind
The design of the 2021 Honda Civic starts with the Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ body structure. This unique design developed by Honda helps mitigate the impact when a collision happens. It accomplishes this by absorbing and deflecting the energy created when the vehicle is involved in a frontal collision.
Along with this, the Honda Civic also comes with advanced front airbags, SmartVent® front side airbags, and side curtain airbags with rollover sensor to help protect you and your passengers if an accident is to happen. All of this is what helps the Civic test so well in terms of crashworthiness.
More Confident Driving
There are also plenty of technology systems that work to help you limit the chances of being involved in a collision in the first place. This includes all the driver-assistive systems a part of Honda Sensing®, which comes standard with the 2021 Civic.
This includes the Collision Mitigation Braking System™ that is able to automatically apply the brakes when it detects a vehicle in your path close ahead. To keep you safely driving straight along the road, the Lane Keeping Assist System is able to provide subtly steering adjustments to keep you centered in the lane.
Along with the features a part of Honda Sensing®, there are even more safety technologies you can get with the 2021 Civic. This includes Honda LaneWatch™, which makes changing lanes easier for you since it will let you check for any oncoming cars thanks to its side-mirror camera that displays a live feed on the display screen inside the Honda Civic.
