A LOOK AT THE 2021 HONDA CR-V SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES

  
At Honda, safety is serious business. Each model offered by the company comes with a host of safety features that have only one goal: Protect you, at all times.
  
With the 2021 Honda CR-V, you are in good hands because each version of the model benefits from the Honda Sensing suite of active safety technologies which offers interesting features, not to mention all the other elements that add to the safety of the model. Let us take the time to examine some of these technologies.
  
Forward collision warning and collision avoidance braking system
  
With this system, the 2021 CR-V detects the presence of vehicles ahead and triggers audible, visual and tactile alerts if a collision appears imminent. If you don't react, the collision avoidance system first applies a slight braking force and if left unchecked, it brakes firmly on its own.
  
Lane departure assistance and lane departure mitigation system
  
This device is designed to make a correction to the steering if you deviate from your lane without activating your turn signal. The system assumes that you need to stay centered and will gradually apply force to the steering wheel to help regain the centre of the lane. Likewise, if you continue to deviate, the attenuation system will apply braking force to help you get back on track.
  
Lane Departure Warning System
  
The Lane Departure Warning is there to let you know if you are heading into another lane without activating your turn signal. If nothing is done, the systems described above take over.
  
What is important to understand is that these systems work both independently, but also in symbiosis. If they can back each other up and work as a team to keep you safe, they will.
  
Adaptive cruise control
  
With adaptive cruise control, your CR-V follows the vehicle in front of you and will adjust its speed in order to always maintain a safe distance with it. And thanks to the low-speed adjustment function, it has the ability to make stops and starts in heavy traffic on its own.
  
To these elements of the Honda Sensing group, other innovations are added such as electronic brake force distribution, brake assist which adds additional pressure in the event of an emergency stop, a tire pressure monitoring system, hill start assist, automatic low beams, as well as a hood and front fenders that have the capacity to absorb energy in the event of an impact with a pedestrian.
