The 2022 Honda CR-V is equipped with a host of features that are designed to keep you and your passengers safe, which is why it received the IIHS’ Top Safety Pick award.
Active Safety
The 2022 Honda CR-V benefits from many standard and available driver assistance and active safety systems. For example, the forward collision alert and the collision mitigation braking system warn you of an imminent collision and then apply the brakes automatically if you don’t react in time, which reduces the force of the impact, or prevents it altogether. The lane departure warning system and the road departure mitigation system work together to make sure your CR-V stays in its lane. If the vehicle starts drifting out of the lane, the sensors pick it up and an alert is displayed on the instrument cluster. If the situation is not rectified, the system will apply a small amount of force on the steering wheel to move the vehicle back to the center of the lane it was travelling in. The blind sport information system, the rear cross traffic alert and the adaptive cruise control are all systems that make it safer and easier to drive your CR-V.
Passive Safety
The 2022 Honda CR-V is designed to help you avoid accidents, but sometimes they are inevitable. This is why the CR-V is equipped with features such as a strong safety cage around the occupants and a multitude of airbags that offer protection in a frontal or a lateral collision as well as in the event of a rollover. To insure that you get medical help as soon as possible after a collison, the HondaLink Assist automatic emergency response system dials the first responders as soon as the airbags are deployed and shares your location with the authorities, meaning that help will be on the way even if you are unable to call for it yourself.
