Jan 14, 2016 - TORRANCE, Calif. -- The dynamic, new-from-the-ground-up 2016 #honda #civic Sedan, 2016's North American Car of the Year, (www.automobiles.honda.com/civic-sedan/) has received the highest available rating of TOP SAFETY PICK+ from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), including a SUPERIORrating for frontal crash prevention when equipped with the #honda Sensing™ suite of safety and driver-assist technologies, available on all 2016 #civic Sedan models.

The 2016 #civic Sedan has earned a top rating of GOOD in five #iihs crash test modes, including the rigorous small overlap frontal crash test. The 2015 TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation is reserved for vehicles that also have an available front crash prevention system that earns an ADVANCED or SUPERIOR rating from the Institute.

"As these new safety ratings demonstrate, the 2016 #civic Sedan not only brings new value to the compact segment with its hefty upgrades to fun-to-drive performance, fuel efficiency, refinement and technology, it also delivers advanced collision safety performance," said Jeff Conrad, senior vice president and general manager of the #honda Division. "With its available #honda Sensing technologies, including our first application of Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, the new #civic Sedan offers customers a suite of technologies unlike anything else in the class."

The 10th-generation #civic Sedan offers a wide range of advanced active and passive safety and driver-assist features and technologies, including #honda Sensing™, which is available on all trims. #honda Sensing™ technologies include:

  • Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)1
  • Forward Collision Warning (FCW) – integrated with CMBS2
  • Lane Keeping Assist (LKAS)3
  • Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)4
  • Lane Departure Warning – integrated with RDM5
  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow6

Honda Sensing™ is available as a standalone option on LX, EX, EX-T and EX-L trims and is offered as standard equipment on the Touring trim.

The greater use of high-strength steel and advanced crash engineering features, including its next-generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, new crash stroke front frame structure and tailor-tempered B-pillars and rear frame structures, help better protect occupants in a collision while minimizing vehicle weight for superior fuel efficiency. In addition, standard passive safety features on the 2016 #civic Sedan include a new front passenger's safety vent airbag, SmartVent® front side curtain airbags and side curtain airbags with rollover sensor.

All #civic Sedan models also come standard with Vehicle Stability Assist® with Traction Control, 4-channel Anti-Lock Braking System with Brake Assist; a highly responsive, fully independent suspension; Motion-Adaptive Electric Power Steering; a Multi-Angle Rearview Camera; Expanded View Driver's Mirror; indirect tire pressure monitoring system; and Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) child seat mounting system.

The 2016 #civic Sedan is the first in a series of new 10th-generation #civic variants that will include a sedan, coupe, sports-minded Si models, a five-door hatchback and the first-ever #civic Type-R model for the U.S. market, comprising the most diverse and innovative lineup in Civic's 43-year history. The new #civic Sedan's design and development was led by #honda R&D Americas, and is manufactured by #honda of Canada Manufacturing in Alliston, Ontario and by #honda Manufacturing of Indiana in Greensburg, Indiana, using domestic and globally sourced parts.
