Learn About the Honda Sensing Safety Features

When shopping for a new vehicle, safety technology should be one of your top priorities. Honda has developed a remarkable suite of driver-assistance features known as Honda Sensing®, designed to help protect you and your passengers on every journey. At Ecodrive Honda of Gorham, we are proud to offer vehicles equipped with this advanced safety technology to drivers throughout the region.

What Is Honda Sensing®?

Honda Sensing® is a comprehensive package of safety and driver-assistive technologies that come standard on most Honda vehicles. This integrated system uses cameras and sensors to monitor the road and help you avoid potential hazards. Drivers in Gorham, NH have discovered how these features provide an extra layer of confidence behind the wheel.

Key Honda Sensing® Features Explained

Collision Mitigation Braking System™

The Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™) uses a forward-facing camera and radar to detect vehicles and pedestrians ahead. If a potential collision is detected, the system alerts you with visual and audio warnings. When necessary, CMBS™ can apply the brakes automatically to help reduce the severity of an unavoidable collision or potentially avoid it altogether.

Road Departure Mitigation System

The Road Departure Mitigation System helps keep you safely on the road. Using a camera to monitor lane markings, this feature alerts you if your vehicle begins to drift from its lane unintentionally. Customers from Berlin, NH traveling on rural highways find this feature particularly valuable during long drives.

Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assist

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) automatically adjusts your vehicle speed to maintain a set following distance behind a detected vehicle. This technology makes highway driving less stressful and more comfortable. Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) works alongside ACC by making subtle steering adjustments to help keep your vehicle centered in its lane. Families from Conway, NH heading out on road trips can enjoy a more relaxed driving experience with these features.

Honda Sensing® comes standard on a wide range of Honda vehicles, including popular sedans like the 2026 Honda Civic and 2026 Honda Accord, as well as SUVs such as the 2026 Honda CR-V, 2026 Honda HR-V, and 2026 Honda Pilot.
