Self-Driving Tech Boosts Safety in the 2019 Honda HR-V

When you drive home from Keyes Honda in a new Honda vehicle, the #1 perk you leave with is peace of mind. That peace of mind comes from knowing you just bought a car you can count on, one that’s been poured over by a dedicated team of designers and engineers looking to make something truly great. Honda vehicles make great pre-owned cars because they last for so long. And Honda drivers? They tend to be lifers, trading in old Honda vehicles for new ones, drawn back again and again by quality, performance, and innovative features like the self-driving technology in the 2019 Honda HR-V.

All 2019 Honda vehicles come equipped with Honda Sensing®, the brand’s suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies. That’s a big deal. For years, many of these features were offered as options, and when equipped, helped propel the Honda vehicle suite to top safety scores. Now, these features come standard, features like the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS).

Sometimes, on the highway, your car can drift ever so slightly. Without you noticing, it’s peeking out of the lane a bit, which can put you in harm’s way. That’s where LKAS comes in; while your hands are on the wheel, this feature adjusts the steering ever so slightly to help keep you centered in your lane.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is another great feature when you’re on the highway. Set your speed and your following distance, and the 2019 Honda HR-V slows down and speeds up with traffic to maintain your following distance and get to up your set speed when the road is clear.

According to Kelley Blue Book®, “For those seeking compact-car dimensions, price and fuel economy in a SUV-like form, the 2019 Honda HR-V pushes all the right buttons.” Test drive it today here at our Los Angeles, CA Honda dealership.
