The 2024 Honda Accord: Redefining Midsize Sedan Safety

When Honda engineers set out to design the all-new Accord, they had one goal in mind: to create the safest midsize sedan on the road. And by leveraging cutting-edge technologies and innovations, they've delivered a vehicle that raises the bar for occupant protection. Let's explore what makes the 2024 Accord a true safety leader.


Structural Integrity and Passive Safety

At the core of the Accord's safety prowess is its rock-solid construction. The vehicle's enhanced global architecture, advanced high-strength steel body, and Honda's proprietary Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure work together to provide exceptional protection in the event of a collision.


But Honda didn't stop there. The 2024 Accord also features next-generation front airbags designed to minimize traumatic brain and neck injuries, as well as new standard knee airbags and rear side-impact airbags—firsts for the nameplate.


Intelligent Driver Assistance

While passive safety features are crucial, the best way to protect occupants is to avoid collisions altogether. That's where the 2024 Accord's suite of advanced driver-assistive technologies comes into play.


At the heart of this system is the updated Honda Sensing, which includes Collision Mitigation Braking System, Road Departure Mitigation, Lane Keeping Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, and more. These features act as an extra set of eyes and reflexes, helping to prevent accidents before they happen.


Confidence-Inspiring Performance

Exceptional handling and control are also key factors in the Accord's safety equation. With its refined suspension, precise steering, and potent hybrid powertrain option (204 hp, 247 lb-ft of torque), the 2024 Accord delivers the responsiveness and confidence drivers need to navigate any situation safely.


Honda's engineers have also focused on enhancing the Accord's overall refinement, reducing noise and vibration for a more comfortable and focused driving experience.


Safety Accolades and Recognition 

The 2024 Accord's safety prowess has already earned it top accolades from industry experts. It's the latest Honda model to receive the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) highest honour, the TOP SAFETY PICK+ (TSP+) rating.


In IIHS testing, the Accord outperformed competitors in rigorous evaluations like the updated moderate overlap front test and new nighttime pedestrian detection assessments, further solidifying its position as a class leader in occupant protection.


With its meticulously engineered safety cell, advanced driver-assistance features, and confidence-inspiring performance, the 2024 Honda Accord isn't just raising the bar for midsize sedan safety—it's setting a new standard altogether.


And this commitment to safety is part of Honda's broader "Safety for Everyone" vision, which focuses on protecting not just vehicle occupants but all road users through continuous innovation and the implementation of cutting-edge safety technologies across its lineup.


So, if you're looking for a midsize sedan that prioritizes your safety above all else, look no further than the 2024 Honda Accord. Experience it for yourself at our dealership and discover why it's the safest choice on the road.
