The CR-V earned a top rating of GOOD in five IIHS crash test modes, including the rigorous small overlap frontal crash test. The CR-V SUV also earned an ACCEPTABLE rating for its headlights.
To earn the 2017 TOP SAFETY PICK+ award, a vehicle must earn a rating of good in the small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraint tests. It also must have an available front crash prevention system with an ADVANCED or SUPERIOR rating and headlights that earn an ACCEPTABLE or GOOD rating. For those asking, Honda Sensing technologies include Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) with forward Collision Warning (FCW), Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) with Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). The 2017 Honda CR-V comes with the multi-angle rearview camera as standard equipment.
