*Vehicle shown above is a 2016 Honda Civic Touring sedan.
When it comes to choosing the perfect compact vehicle for your family, you want one with as many safety features as possible. You don’t have to search any farther than the 2017 Honda Civic, with its commitment to protecting you and your passengers through its integrated systems. Here at Pohanka Honda in Capitol Heights, we offer the Civic in all of its iterations, so you can choose your favorite to test drive as soon as today!
Easily the most prestigious of the Civic’s safety amenities are its suite of Honda Sensing™ features. When you’re out on Martin Luther King Junior Highway, the Lane Keeping Assist System1 corrects your path if you start to unintentionally drift beyond the lines. Luckily, you can relax on those long expressway trips while Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow2 leads the way with a set pace, maximizing your efficiency whenever it is in use. The Civic protects you from swerving off the pavement, too, with the Road Departure Mitigation System3. And, if a crash is ever imminent, the Civic does its best to eschew impact through the Collision Mitigation Braking System™4, attempting to slow you to a stop if necessary to assist in avoiding contact.
The Civic is equipped with several cameras on its exterior to provide you the perspective you need to maneuver safely in every circumstance. When you’re looking to change lanes on the highway during rush hour, it can seem like a daunting task. You don’t have to worry any longer when you’re behind the wheel of the Honda Civic. This vehicle implements available Honda LaneWatch™5, which grants you access to an image of your blind spot whenever you flip the turn signal. Likewise, while backing out of a parking space or driveway, you’ll love the convenience of the Multi-Angle Rearview Camera6. Offering three images of your surroundings, normal, top-down, and wide, this system is prepared to be the eyes in the back of your head as you confidently reverse.
Safety is also implemented in the very design of the Civic. Its standard MacPherson struts are reinforced by the light, yet sturdy outline of the Honda ACE™ body structure. This stability is essential when you’re out on the road, making sure that you can handle even the tightest curves of Walker Mill Road with the utmost confidence. Though you might not immediately recognize it as a safety feature, the available Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System7 proves incredibly useful if you ever get lost wandering too far from home. The 2017 Civic even comes equipped with the segment-first8 Electric Parking Brake, which allows you to lock up the wheels just by lifting your finger beneath the control.
Now that you’ve taken a crash course in how the Civic avoids crashes, you probably won’t be surprised to know that it was awarded with a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)9. After a look at these 2017 Honda Civic safety features in Capitol Heights, MD, you and your family are sure to love everything else that it has to offer. Come on down to Pohanka Honda in Capitol Heights when you’re ready to test drive this compact vehicle! We are located at 1772 Ritchie Station Court in Capitol Heights, MD, for your convenience.
