New Honda Models Outperform in Tougher IIHS Testing
At Interstate Honda in Chehalis, WA, we’re proud to report that several new Honda models have earned prestigious IIHS Top Safety Pick+ ratings. With stricter 2025 testing protocols in place, Honda continues to set the benchmark for vehicle safety with innovative features and advanced driver-assistance technologies. Let’s look at the award-winning models and how they achieved this distinction.
Why New Honda Models Lead in Safety
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has raised its standards in recent testing rounds, emphasizing rear passenger safety and nighttime pedestrian detection. Despite the changes, standout models like the 2025 Honda Accord, 2025 Honda CR-V, and 2025 Honda Pilot earned Top Safety Pick+ status—the highest recognition available.
Each of these vehicles performed exceptionally across multiple crashworthiness evaluations, including moderate overlap front and side-impact tests. Honda’s available safety technologies—like the Collision Mitigation Braking System™, Road Departure Mitigation System™, and Lane Keeping Assist System™—helped them achieve top marks.
Top Features Behind IIHS Ratings
Many new Honda vehicles come equipped with the Honda Sensing® suite, a collection of intelligent driver-assist features designed to help you respond more effectively behind the wheel. Highlights include:
- Collision Mitigation Braking System™
- Lane Keeping Assist System™
- Adaptive Cruise Control™
- Road Departure Mitigation System™
Combined with Honda’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering® (ACE®) body structure, these technologies reinforce the brand’s legacy of safe, family-friendly design.
