New Honda CR-V scores five-star Euro NCAP rating

The new Honda CR-V has been awarded the maximum five-star rating in the latest Euro NCAP safety tests. The CR-V boasts a unique body structure giving class-leading rigidity and stiffness, and a comprehensive suite of active safety technologies. 

Utilising an 'All Directions Collision Safety' concept, the platform design incorporates Honda's exclusive next generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure. This employs a network of connected structural elements to distribute collision energy more evenly, helping to reduce the forces transferred to the passenger cell in the event of an impact, giving superior front, side and rear crash-worthiness.

The passive safety features on the all new CR-V are complemented by the Honda Sensing suite of active safety and driver assist technologies. Honda Sensing is among the most comprehensive suites of safety technologies in its class. It uses a combination of radar and camera information, plus a host of high-tech sensors to warn and assist the driver in potentially dangerous scenarios.
