Honda Specs. 15 Honda calculations 16 Honda calculations according to VDA formula Chassis and Body The wide stance contributes to improved drivability and a smoother ride. |
| Honda Comparisons To help provide more direct linear handling feel the positioning of the steering gearbox the structure of the body and subframe and the symmetry of the suspension have been comprehensively redesigned. The strut front suspension provides outstanding space efficiency. Honda Specs. A sideforce canceling spring reduces shock absorber friction for improved ride comfort while making for a more compact suspension. |
| Honda Generations The rear suspension employs a compact reactivelink doublewishbone design. Honda Specs.

| Used Cars Other innovations include the use of light strong hightensile steel in approximately 50% of the bodys major frame components the use of tailored blank welds in key areas and combining steel plates of varying thicknesses and materials for efficient strengthening. Reduction of crankshaft knocking and highprecision control of ignition timing to limit highfrequency ignition noise during combustion are just two of the measures employed to reduce engine noise at its source The engine mounts are supplemented by torque rods to absorb longitudinal engine vibration. This considerably reduces the transmission of engine vibration and contributes to more linear handling. Honda Specs. The cabin area employs flat joints between the plates for the center pillars rear wheel housings and trunk area to reduce the number of holes and gaps while the bottom portion of each pillar is insulated with urethane foam to reduce noise in the cabin interior. |
| Car Insurance, Compare Cars Light highperformance sound insulation materials are also optimally positioned in the floor and central roof area to achieve high levels of noise reduction and weight reduction. Honda Specs. Advanced Features The IHCC (Intelligent Highway Cruise Control)17 vehicle speed and distance control system helps reduce the burden on the driver during freeway driving. Honda Pictures. It assesses driving conditions using data from a millimeterwave radar unit built into the front grille of the vehicle that measures the distance to the vehicle ahead along with data from vehicle speed and yaw rate sensors. Honda Colors. In addition to maintaining the vehicle at a set speed this cruise control system automatically regulates vehicle speed and distance depending on whether or not there is a vehicle in the same lane ahead. Honda Specs. The Honda HDD InterNavi System18 with rear camera utilizes the enormous information storage of a highcapacity hard drive to deliver a wide range of information. |
