Honda hit the reset button for the all-new 2016 Civic, and with its new platform, body, engine lineup, and available technology packages, the 10th-gen model is the most compelling version in years.
The vehicle received an official Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Institute for Highway Safety this month, and to further prove its protective prowess, Honda has released a series of clips detailing the car’s various driver assist features. Dubbed Honda Sensing, the safety suite includes Collision Mitigation Braking System with Forward Collision Warning, Lane Keeping Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Road Departure Mitigation, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, many of which function without any driver input at all.
Honda Sensing is available as a standalone option on all of the Civic’s trims (LX, EX, EX-T, and EX-L), and is offered as standard on the range-topping Touring version. For more info on the 2016 model, check out our First Drive report here.
