How Honda SENSING and AXA make your everyday ride safer

Today's vehicles are safer and more enjoyable to drive, thanks to innovations like the invention of the safety glass, three-point seatbelt, airbag, automatic emergency braking, and parking sensors. Yet, driving can still be dangerous, especially in crowded cities. In Metro Manila, for example, the Metro Manila Accident Reporting and Analysis System recorded 65,032 accidents with 337 deaths in one year. That’s a staggering 178 accidents happening daily.

That's why companies like Honda and AXA constantly develop products and features that keep people and roads much safer. If you're in the market for a new car that puts safety first, you'll be in for a treat with what Honda and AXA have in store for you.

Honda SENSING: an evolution in car safety

Honda has long been committed to its vision of "Safety for Everyone" where roads are safe for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians alike.

As early as 2015, Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. signaled a new era of car safety when it debuted the Honda Legend with Honda SENSING technology, followed by the 3rd generation Honda Pilot the year after.

Honda SENSING is the car manufacturer's driver-assistive system currently available in the 11th generation All-New Civic, CR-V, Accord, and the new Civic Type R. It makes driving safer and more comfortable with its cameras and sensors that detect vehicles, pedestrians, and obstacles on the road.

What to expect from your Honda SENSING-equipped vehicle

Get into one of Honda's SENSING-equipped vehicles and you might not notice anything out of the ordinary. After all, the comfort, style, and spaciousness you expect from a Honda remain.

The magic happens when you actually drive it.

Imagine driving on a busy road filled with vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians. Your Honda SENSING-equipped vehicle will keep you and everyone around you safe with its Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS). It provides visual and audio warnings when it detects a potential collision with a car or pedestrian. If there's an increased risk of collision, CMBS will apply a mild brake or a stronger one to avoid impact or limit damage. CMBS also constantly detects the size, location, and speed of an oncoming object such as a pedestrian or cyclist, so it can stop or slow down the car as needed. 

Going on a road trip? Honda SENSING makes traveling extra safe. Its Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow (LSF) handles your car's braking and acceleration while you're driving. It checks your distance from the car ahead of you and its speed, and then slows down or speeds up as necessary.

That's not all. Honda SENSING's Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Road Departure Mitigation System with Lane Departure Warning (RDM with LDW), and Auto High-Beam (AHB) all put you on the right track throughout your journey, day or night.

Of course, you can't forget your car's most important safety feature: you. That's why it's important to always keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel. Long drives can be exhausting too, so make sure you take regular breaks or have someone else take the wheel.
