Embracing
advanced technology, superior materials, and an
array of measures for active and passive protection,
the Accord satisfies the world's toughest governmental
safety regulations. As you take the wheel of the
Accord, you'll sense its improved safety. Its
precision brakes respond to the most delicate
touch and all models are equipped with ABS
(Anti-lock
Braking System), which helps to retain steering
control in emergency situations. Active
protection continues with more effective
acceleration, and electronic throttle control-integrated
TCS* (Traction Control System).
Which
controls engine output for better traction
in diverse conditions. In the event of an
unavoidable accident, the Accord offers
a plethora of passive protection measures
based on G-Force Control technology —
an advance designed to direct the forces
generated during a collision. These include
omni directional shielding, effective impact
absorption.
And
a dual SRS airbag system for all models,
as well as seatbelt pretensioners that keep
the body firmly in place, and load limiters
that reduce pressure on the chest. The 3.0-liter
V6 model features the additional advantage
of side airbags.What's more, all safety
measures featured in the Accord have been
tested at the Honda Peal World Crash Test
Facility — the world's first site
for
indoor omni directional impact testing. Take the
Accord for a drive, and enjoy the confidence that
only true safety can provide.
