MILWAUKEE - Feb. 15, 2016 - PRLog -- The 2016 Honda Civic Sedan has garnered many accolades in the short time it's been out on dealership lots. It's been picked as the North American Car of the Year for its reliability, fuel efficiency, and fantastic features. Now it has received the highest possible rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety: a 2016 Top Safety Pick+. It’s available now at Wisconsin Acura Dealers.
How Did the Civic Earn a Top Safety Pick?
The IIHS awarded the 2016 Honda Civic an overall top rating of "good" in the crash-worthiness test. It also scored a perfect rating of "good" in each subcategory of this test, including the small and moderate overlap front crash tests, the side crash tests, the roof strength test, and the head restraints and seats. It also got a rating of "superior" in the front crash prevention test, which measures the safety and effectiveness of optional safety equipment such as crash prevention and driver awareness aids. In addition, the child seat anchors got a perfect "A" rating for ease of use.
What Safety Features Does the Civic Have?
The 2016 Honda Civic includes plenty of basic safety features. You'll get a full suite of side, front, and rear airbags inside. The rollover sensor deploys the side curtain airbags if it senses an impending rollover, while the electronic stability control helps prevent rollovers in the first place.
Civic models are also available with the Honda Sensing suite of safety features. The adaptive cruise control helps you keep a safe following distance, while the forward collision warning and collision mitigation braking system stop you in case you're not using cruise control. The lane departure warning, road departure mitigation, and lane keeping assist keep track of the lane lines and send an alert and steering torque to you if you're driving.
