At what speed does Honda Sensing work?
Honda Sensing, the advanced safety and driver-assistive technology suite found in many Honda vehicles, operates at a range of speeds to provide comprehensive protection and support for drivers. The system's various features, including collision mitigation braking, lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control, work seamlessly across a wide speed spectrum to enhance safety and driving convenience.
Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)
The Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) in Honda Sensing is designed to detect the potential for a frontal collision and automatically apply the brakes to help reduce the severity of the impact or avoid the collision altogether. CMBS is operational at speeds between 3 mph (5 km/h) and 110 mph (177 km/h). This wide speed range ensures that the system can provide protection in a variety of driving scenarios, from low-speed city traffic to high-speed highway driving.
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
The Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) in Honda Sensing uses a camera to detect lane markings and helps keep the vehicle centered within the detected lane. LKAS is operational at speeds between 45 mph (72 km/h) and 90 mph (145 km/h). This speed range covers the majority of typical driving conditions, providing valuable lane-keeping assistance during highway driving and on other roads with clear lane markings.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) in Honda Sensing allows the driver to maintain a set speed while also automatically adjusting the vehicle's speed to maintain a safe following distance from the vehicle ahead. ACC is operational at speeds between 0 mph (0 km/h) and 90 mph (145 km/h). This wide speed range enables ACC to provide convenience and safety benefits in a variety of driving situations, from stop-and-go traffic to highway cruising.
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)
The Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) system in Honda Sensing is designed to detect when the vehicle is about to leave the roadway and can provide steering assistance and/or braking to help keep the vehicle within the detected lane. RDM is operational at speeds between 45 mph (72 km/h) and 90 mph (145 km/h). This speed range ensures that RDM can provide valuable road departure prevention capabilities during highway driving and on other roads with clear lane markings.
In summary, the various features of Honda Sensing work across a wide range of speeds to provide comprehensive safety and driver-assistive capabilities, helping to protect drivers and passengers in a variety of driving conditions.
Is Honda Sensing always on?
Still, some Honda owners wonder “Can you turn Honda Sensing™ off when needed?” And luckily, Honda gives you the option to adjust the settings to suit your preferences.
What speed does Honda lane Assist work?
between 45-90 mph
By keeping your hands on the wheel and vehicle speeds between 45-90 mph, LKAS will make subtle adjustments to your steering to keep you in the detected lane if you begin to drift outside your current lane without signaling.
At what speed does Honda CMBS work?
Honda's Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMBS) is a radar-based autonomous emergency braking system. At speeds above 15km/h, moving and stationary vehicles are detected along a path some 100m ahead of the vehicle.
What speed does pre-collision assist activate?
With pre-collision function set at high sensitivity the displays only come on above 18 mph. There are no alerts for bicycles, cars or pedestrians below 18mph. The loud alert sound and red flashing display has come on a couple of times when an ON COMING vehicle has come very close.
