BOSTON - Feb. 8, 2016 - PRLog -- New England Honda Dealers is proud to announce that the 2016 Honda Civic Sedan equipped with the new Honda Sensing safety features has earned one of the highest safety awards in the industry: the 2016 Top Safety Pick+ from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
The 2016 Honda Civic has already been making waves and the sedan is still the only model that's been released (a hatchback and a coupe are forthcoming). New England drivers seeking a powerful and safe new small car will have a hard time doing better than the new Civic, particularly the models with the available Honda Sensing safety features.
Honda Sensing is a suite of amenities that helps keep the driver's focus on the road and prevents accidents before they happen, including:
● Forward Collision Warning
● Collision Mitigation Braking
● Adaptive Cruise Control
● Lane Keeping Assist
● Road Departure Mitigation
"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," said Jeff Conrad, Senior VP and General Manager of the Honda Division.
Combine these advanced features with the standards of the Civic—an advanced body structure built for safety, airbags, and seat belts—and it's clear how the Civic did so well in IIHS tests. But a car has to do more than “well” in order to earn Top Safety Pick+. The Civic had to earn ratings of “good,” the highest score available, in five tests: moderate overlap front, small overlap front, side impact, roof strength, and head restraint. The vehicle also has to have an advanced or superior level of forward collision prevention technology.
"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," Conrad added.
Readers looking to learn more about the Civic can contact a New England Honda Dealer; they have convenient locations all over the New England area, all with the brand-new 2016 Honda Civic.
