Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure

Safety in the Insight begins with Honda’s innovative Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure. The design utilizes a complex network of frame structures that absorb crash energy and distribute it away from the occupants. The structure also minimizes the amount of force that is transferred to the other vehicle involved, keeping everyone on the road safer.

Passive Safety Features

The Insight’s passive safety features includeseat belts, airbags, and locks. These features might not be apparent, but they’re there for you when you need them most.

Advanced Front Airbags
SmartVent Front Side Airbags
Side Curtain Airbags with Rollover Sensor
3-Point Seat Belts at all Seating Positions
Front 3-Point Seat Belts with Automatic Tensioning System
Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children
Driver’s and Front Passenger’s Seat Belt Reminder
Child-Proof Rear Door Locks

Active Safety Features

With an extensive list of active safety features the Insight performs at its best, even in inclement weather or less-than-ideal road conditions. These features help the Insight maintain good tractive control with the road, come to a complete stop more quickly and safely in an emergency braking situation, and stay clearly visible to other drivers while also illuminating the road ahead.

Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control
Anti-Lock Braking System
Electronic Brake Distribution
Brake Assist
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
LED Daytime Running Lights

Multi-Angle Rearview Camera

Every model of the Insight comes equipped with a multi-angle rearview camera that allows drivers to check their surroundings before reversing. And with guidelines as an accompanying feature, and dynamic guidelines as an upgrade on the EX and Touring models, drivers can maneuver in and out of tight spaces with ease.

Normal – Check for a clear path behind the Insight before backing out.
Wide – A wider angle allows drivers to see vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists that may be approaching the rear.
Top-Down – A top-down angle is especially helpful when parallel parking.

Driver-Assistive Technology

The Honda Sensing suite of driver-assistive technology features comes standard on every model of the Insight. It helps drivers stay safe with systems that warn, prevent, and mitigate incidents on the road. The package includes:

Forward Collision Warning
Lane Departure Warning
Collision Mitigation Braking System
Road Departure Mitigation System
Lane Keeping Assist System
Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
Traffic Sign Recognition System

Honda LaneWatch

EX and Touring models come equipped with Honda LaneWatch technology that allows drivers to see more in their blindspot. A small camera mounted on the passenger’s side mirror displays a live video feed of activity in the driver’s blind spot when a right lane change is signaled. The video is displayed on the 8-inch audio touchscreen inside the cabin and allows drivers to see up to four times more than using mirrors alone.

More Safety Throughout the Trim Levels

As drivers explore the mid-level EX model and the top-of-the-line Touring model, they’ll find more technology features geared toward safety. An SMS text message function lets drivers send and receive messages safely when behind the wheel. And with a navigation system and voice recognition, drivers can input instructions without taking their hands off the wheel or their eyes off the road.

Smart Entry with Walk-Away Auto Lock
Speed-Sensitive Compensation
SMS Text Message Function
Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System with Voice Recognition
