2025 Honda Pilot Earns Top Safety Pick + Rating

The 2025 Honda Pilot has earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS) highest honor, the 2024 TOP SAFETY PICK + rating, cementing itself as one of the safest SUVs on the road today.

Rigorous Testing and Outstanding Results

IIHS conducts comprehensive tests to evaluate the safety of vehicles, and the 2025 Pilot excelled in all categories. To earn the TSP + designation, a vehicle must achieve high ratings in several critical areas, including:

• Crashworthiness: The Pilot SUV received top marks in crash tests, including small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength, and head restraints & seats.
• Crash Avoidance and Mitigation: The Honda SUV’s advanced safety features, such as collision avoidance systems and automatic emergency braking, performed exceptionally well.
• Headlight Performance: The Pilot’s headlights provided excellent visibility, further enhancing safety during nighttime driving.
• Child Seat Anchors: The ease of use and accessibility of the LATCH system were also highly rated, ensuring that child safety seats can be securely installed.

Advanced Safety Features

The 2025 Pilot comes equipped with Honda Sensing ®, a suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies designed to keep you aware and help avoid collisions. Key features include:

• Collision Mitigation Braking System ™ (CMBTS™): This system can detect a potential frontal collision and apply the brakes to help reduce the severity of the impact.
• Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM): RDM can determine if you cross over detected lanes without signaling and provide steering assistance to help you return to your lane or provide braking to prevent you from leaving the road entirely.
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): ACC helps you maintain a set following interval behind detected vehicles for highway driving.
• Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS): LKAS can subtly adjust steering to help keep the SUV centered in a detected lane.
• Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR): TSR can inform you of detected traffic sign information, including speed limit signs, keeping you informed while driving.

Built for Safety

The 2025 Honda Pilot’s structural integrity is bolstered by the Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, designed to enhance occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions. The Pilot’s robust framework, combined with strategically placed airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners, ensures that passengers are well-protected in the event of an accident.

Comfort and Convenience

While safety is paramount, the new Honda Pilot also excels in supplying comfort and convenience for drivers and passengers alike. The spacious interior, premium materials, and state-of-the-art infotainment system make every ride a pleasant one.
