Peace of Mind
Multi-View Camera System
The multiview camera system uses cameras mounted at the front, sides, and rear of the Pilot to provide you with views around the entire vehicle.
Peace of Mind
Cross Traffic Monitor
A cross traffic monitor,* which uses sensors on the rear of the vehicle to help alert you to approaching vehicles detected when you’re in reverse. *The systems are not a substitute for your own visual assessment before changing lanes or backing up, and may not detect all objects, or provide complete information about conditions, behind or to the side of the vehicle. System accuracy will vary based on weather, size of object, and speed. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
Peace of Mind
Low-Speed Braking Control
Low-Speed Braking Control* can help bring your vehicle to a stop when traveling at low speeds by automatically applying brake pressure when the system determines that either a frontal or rear collision is unavoidable. *Low-Speed Braking Control may not detect all objects in front of or behind the vehicle. Accuracy will vary based on weather, speed, and other factors. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
Peace of Mind
Parking Sensors
Front and rear parking sensors can alert you when you’re getting too close to a detected object, making it easier to squeeze into tight parking spaces.
Peace of Mind
ACE Body Structure
The Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure is a Honda-exclusive body design that enhances occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions. The ACE design utilizes a network of connected structural elements to distribute crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle.
Honda Sensing is a suite of safety and assistance features designed to make driving easier and help protect you and your passengers. When activated, these features use sensor inputs to automatically provide alerts, and can also provide steering and braking assistance as needed.
The Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)* can alert and assist you when there’s a risk of collision with a detected vehicle or pedestrian in front of you. The system can automatically apply brake pressure when it determines that a collision is unavoidable.
*Depending on the circumstances, CMBS may not go through all the alert stages before initiating the last stage (of collision mitigation). CMBS cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed, and other factors. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collision.
The Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM)* is designed to help you stay on the road. If you cross over detected lane lines without signaling, RDM can provide necessary steering and/or braking assistance to help you return to your lane or keep you from leaving the roadway entirely.
*Road Departure Mitigation only alerts the driver when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use and can appply mild steering torque to assist driver in maintaining proper lane position or to slow the vehicle’s departure from a detected lane. RDM may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and road condition. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)* with Low-Speed Follow is an intelligent cruising system that adapts to the speed of vehicles detected ahead so you don’t have to. When a detected vehicle slows to a stop, it can stop your Honda as well. After stopping, a tap on the throttle re-engages ACC.
*ACC with Low-Speed Follow cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed, and other factors. ACC should not be used in heavy traffic, poor weather, or on winding roads. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
The Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)* helps make highway driving easier, whether you’re in traffic or cruising on the open road. While your hands are on the wheel, the system can help keep your vehicle centered in a detected lane by making subtle steering adjustments.
*LKAS only assists driver in maintaining proper lane position when lane markings are identified without a turn signal in use and can only apply mild steering torque to assist. The system may not detect all lane markings; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed, and road condition. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
