At Acura, safety isn’t just a priority – it’s a vision. Our commitment to a Zero-Collision Society drives the innovation behind Acura’s advanced safety features, designed to protect you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road. Discover how Acura’s cutting-edge technology in models like the Acura MDX, RDX, and TLX redefines vehicle safety, offering you peace of mind with every drive.
Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)
The Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™), available in models like the Acura MDX and Acura RDX, works proactively to prevent or minimize the severity of collisions. Using a forward-facing radar and camera, CMBS™ detects potential frontal impacts and applies braking automatically if necessary. Whether you’re navigating heavy traffic in the city or cruising down the highway, this system ensures you’re protected from unexpected hazards.
Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
Acura’s Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow, a feature in the Acura TLX and Acura Integra, adds convenience and safety to your drive. This system maintains a set following distance from the vehicle ahead, adjusting your speed automatically – even in stop-and-go traffic. By reducing driver fatigue, ACC ensures a smoother and safer journey, no matter the road conditions.
Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) with Traction Control
Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®), a standard feature in the Acura MDX, RDX, and TLX, enhances your control on the road, especially in slippery or uneven driving conditions. By monitoring traction and adjusting engine power or braking to individual wheels, VSA® ensures you stay on course. Whether you’re navigating tight corners or driving through inclement weather, this system helps maintain stability and confidence across the Acura lineup.
Blind Spot Information System (BSI)
The Blind Spot Information System (BSI), featured in models like the Acura RDX and MDX, helps you make safer lane changes by detecting vehicles in your blind spots. With visual alerts on your side mirrors and audio warnings when needed, this technology gives you an extra set of eyes to avoid potential collisions and enhance situational awareness, whether on city streets or open highways.
Cross Traffic Monitor
The Cross Traffic Monitor, available in models like the Acura MDX and RDX, enhances your safety while reversing by detecting approaching vehicles from the side. Using advanced radar sensors, this system alerts you with visual and audio warnings, making it easier to navigate busy parking lots or driveways. Whether you’re backing out of a tight spot or avoiding unexpected traffic, the Cross Traffic Monitor adds an extra layer of awareness for confident and safe maneuvering.
Acura Virtual Safety Tests
Acura goes beyond traditional safety protocols with Acura Virtual Safety Tests. Using advanced simulations and real-world data, Acura engineers test vehicle safety in dynamic conditions for every model, including the Acura MDX, TLX, and Integra. This innovative approach ensures that every Acura model is designed to perform exceptionally in a variety of scenarios, keeping you and your loved ones protected.
