2025 Honda Pilot

2025 Honda Pilot Safety Features Overview

The 2025 Honda Pilot is a full-size SUV designed for families in Central Michigan, including cities like Bay City, Saginaw, and Midland. With rugged off-road capability and sophisticated driver-assistive technology, it offers peace of mind for everyday travel and challenging weather conditions like Michigan’s icy winters and heavy summer rain.

Driver Assistance / Safety Overview

All 2025 Pilot trims come equipped with Honda Sensing®, a comprehensive safety suite. Available all‑wheel drive (AWD) enhances control on slippery roads, perfect for Michigan’s snow and lake-effect conditions. Here’s how key safety and driver assistive systems add protection and confidence:

  • Honda Sensing® Suite includes:
    • Forward Collision Warning & Collision Mitigation Braking System for automated braking when risks are detected.
    • Lane Departure Warning & Lane Keeping Assist System help you stay centered.
    • Road Departure Mitigation to prevent veering off road.
    • Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow simplifies highway and stop-and-go traffic.
    • Traffic Jam Assist assists in congested driving.
    • Traffic Sign Recognition keeps you informed of posted limits.
    • Auto High-Beam Headlights for nighttime safety.
    • Driver Attention Monitor to detect drowsiness or distractions.
  • Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Monitor alerts you to vehicles in adjacent lanes and when reversing, especially handy in crowded parking lots.
  • Low-Speed Braking Control (EX‑L and above) automatically stops the vehicle in low-speed collision scenarios, reducing urban fender‑bender risk.
  • Parking Sensors (front & rear; EX‑L and above) alert you to obstacles in tight spots.

Key Safety & Driver-Assist Highlights

  • Full Suite of Honda Sensing®: Standard across all trims, delivering proactive collision prevention, lane-keeping, cruise control functionality, and driver awareness—ideal for highway drives up and down US‑127 or I‑75.
  • Blind Spot & Cross Traffic Monitoring: Radar-enabled alerts while changing lanes or reversing—essential in crowded school zones or congested shopping malls near Midland and Saginaw.
  • Low-Speed Braking Control: Automatically engages in potential low-speed collisions, helping prevent minor accidents during parking or city traffic (on specific equipped models).
  • Parking Sensors: Aid in avoiding bumps and scrapes when parking in icy conditions where visibility may be limited (on specific equipped models).
  • Adaptive AWD: While AWD isn’t safety tech, it boosts traction in snow and rain, increasing the effectiveness of these systems. (Equipped standard on some trims; optional on others.)
