Top Safety Pick 2011 has been announced! And the Winner is 2012 Honda Civic Sedan!!!



The all new 2012 Civic Sedan has been accorded "2011 Top Safety Pick" by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) based on more stringent standards implemented in 2010. The IIHS is an independent, nonprofit, scientific and educational organization dedicated to reducing the losses — deaths, injuries, and property damage — from crashes on the nation's highways.
To determine crashworthiness — how well a vehicle protects its occupants in a crash — the Institute rates vehicles good, acceptable, marginal or poor, based on performance in high-speed front and side crash tests, a rollover test, plus evaluations of seat/head restraints for protection against neck injuries in rear impacts. To earn “TOP SAFETY PICK for 2011”, a vehicle must have good ratings in all the four tests. In addition, the winning vehicles must offer electronic stability control. The 2012 Civic Sedan received top ratings in each category including frontal offset, side impact and rear impact crash safety tests and the new roof-strength test.


The Honda Civic Sedan boasts of immaculate safety features which make it the first choice of discerning car owners. Every Civic features the same full array of safety systems to help keep you on course and away from danger, Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) helps sense oversteer or understeer, and then adjusts brake pressure at each wheel and/or reduces engine power to help restore driver control. Standard 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), help you maintain control during hard braking. Properly inflated tires are crucial for safe operation, so the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alerts the driver when a tire's pressure reaches a significantly low level.


The Civic has been engineered to help protect you and your passengers when a frontal
 collision just cannot be avoided. The Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure utilizes a network of connected structural elements to distribute frontal crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle. Standard front, front side and side curtain airbags help reduce the likelihood of injuries in a collision.


Honda also has a long history of environmental leadership, including the first vehicle to meet California's Low-Emission Vehicle standards, 1996 Civic well in advance of regulatory requirements. Acknowledgment of commitment to innovation can be seen by Honda's topping the rankings as the country's greenest automaker by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS)—for the fifth consecutive year.
