What is Honda Sensing equivalent to?

Honda Sensing is an advanced suite of driver-assistive technologies that is equivalent to the advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) found in many modern vehicles. Honda Sensing provides a range of features designed to enhance safety and driving convenience.


What is Honda Sensing?


Honda Sensing is a collection of safety and driver-assistive technologies that are integrated into Honda vehicles. The system uses a combination of radar and camera sensors to monitor the vehicle's surroundings and provide various safety and convenience features. Some of the key components of Honda Sensing include:



  • Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS): This system can 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.

  • Road Departure Mitigation (RDM): This feature can detect if the vehicle is drifting out of its lane and can provide steering assistance or apply braking to help keep the vehicle within the lane.

  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): This system can maintain a set following distance from the vehicle in front, automatically adjusting the vehicle's speed to maintain a safe following distance.

  • Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS): This feature can detect lane markings and provide steering assistance to help keep the vehicle centered within the lane.

  • Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR): This system can detect and display speed limit and other traffic signs on the vehicle's instrument panel.


These features work together to provide a comprehensive suite of advanced driver assistance technologies that can help enhance safety and driving convenience.


How Does Honda Sensing Compare to Other ADAS Systems?


Honda Sensing is similar to the advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) found in many other modern vehicles. These systems, which are often referred to by different names such as Subaru EyeSight, Toyota Safety Sense, or Nissan ProPILOT Assist, all aim to provide similar safety and convenience features. While the specific names and implementation details may vary, the underlying technology and functionality are generally comparable across different ADAS systems.


The key difference with Honda Sensing is that it is a proprietary system developed and integrated by Honda specifically for its vehicles. This allows Honda to tailor the system to its own vehicle designs and driving dynamics, potentially providing a more seamless and optimized user experience compared to some third-party ADAS systems.

At what speed does Honda Sensing work?


The system functions when the vehicle is moving at speeds between 1 and 6 mph. If an obstacle is detected by the sonar sensors and there's the possibility of a collision, the system will issue visual and audible alerts as well as apply braking.



What is the difference between Honda City V and V sensing?


By paying a little extra money (around RM 3800 more than City Hatchback V), the V-Sensing model offers the Honda Sensing suite of 7 advanced safety features and a 7-inch TFT screen. Rest all remain the same.



What is the Toyota version of Honda Sensing?


Toyota Safety Sense™ includes a Lane Departure Warning, but it doesn't offer any feature that can be directly compared to the Road Departure Mitigation System™. So, drivers who choose a Honda vehicle will enjoy extra protection against the dangerous accidents caused by unintentional lane departures.



What is the difference between Honda Sensing and ProPilot assist?


While Nissan ProPilot Assist is more driver-centric and assists the driver in controlling the vehicle, the Honda Sensing system is comparatively comprehensive and works on defined goals of monitoring, analyzing and mitigating accident scenarios, collisions, and injuries on the road.



What level is Honda Sensing?


Level 3
Honda advanced Honda SENSING 360 functions by leveraging its knowledge and know-how amassed through the research and development of Level 3 automated driving technologies.



Is Subaru EyeSight better than Honda Sensing?


However, it's true that the Subaru suite has been around longer and offers extra safety features-like the Throttle Management System-that you won't find with Honda Sensing®. As a result, we think you'll like what EyeSight® has to offer.
