Safety
Honda Sensing Technologies
Honda vehicles are engineered to provide you a safer driver than ever before, and the Honda Sensing Technologies are the active highlight of this mission. Feel confident in the Pilot, whether you’re a driver or passenger with these systems at the vehicle’s disposal.

- Road Departure Mitigation
- Adaptive Cruise Control
Hill Start Assist
Taking your foot off the brake on an incline is nothing to worry about with the 2022 Pilot at the helm, all thanks to its Hill Start Assist system. It acts by temporarily maintaining that brake pressure even though your foot has left the pedal, and prevents the SUV from rolling backwards.
Body & Frame Structure
Like the Ridgeline as the Honda truck representative, this Pilot is built with a durable unit-body frame, which works to increase strength, stability and handling out on the road. Its Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure was designed as such to effectively act in the event of a collision by dispersing frontal impact with its main goal to protect the passengers inside from cabin intrusion.
