ACETM Body Structure
This Honda-exclusive body design enhances occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions by distributing crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle.
Front Seat Belts with Pretensioner and Load Limiter
When a strong frontal impact is detected, the front seat belts instantly retract, then give slightly if the load on the seat belt exceeds a certain amount, reducing the pressure it applies to the occupant's chest.
Advanced Airbag Technology
Every Honda is equipped with advanced front airbags to help protect you in the event of a collision. Select models are also equipped with SmartVent® front side airbags, side curtain airbags with rollover sensor and front knee airbags to help provide further protection.

Teen Drivers
Inexperience is a leading cause of crashes involving teens. That’s why Honda has teamed up with the National Safety Council to offer parents valuable resources they can use to help teach their teens how to be safe on the road.
Pointers for Parents
Parents are the number-one influence on teen drivers. To help you coach your teen, the National Safety Council has developed a series of lessons and tips designed to give your new driver valuable experience behind the wheel. For example, just 30 minutes of driving practice a week can help your teen become a better, more defensive driver.
New Driver Deal
Before your teen grabs the keys, it's important to discuss the rules and expectations that accompany safe driving. The National Safety Council makes this conversation easier with the New Driver Deal, a printable guide you and your teen can use to help establish ground rules, privileges and responsibilities.
1Always visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing up; the rearview camera display does not provide complete information about all conditions and objects at the rear of your vehicle.
