The HR-Vs braking ability is just the tip of the iceberg when talking about safety features. This SUV is also equipped with an intelligent suite of driver-assistive technologies known as Honda Sensing®, which is something everyone should have on the road. With Honda Sensing®, you’ll have a Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS), Road Departure Mitigation Braking System (RDM), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) to name a few. With CMB, your HR-V will be able to apply brake pressure if it detects an unavoidable collision automatically. The RDM system works by providing steering assistance if the vehicle changes lanes without signaling, and the ACC helps maintain a safe following distance from the vehicles in front without the driver having to adjust the cruise control speed manually.
To make life even easier in the HR-V, it comes standard with Maintenance Minder, which calculates when you need oil changes, air filter replacements, tire rotations, and more based on your actual driving conditions. This will help keep your vehicle in top shape without you having to keep a journal of maintenance records. Unfortunately, the C-HR doesn’t have this feature, so you would still have to track the Toyota’s maintenance needs.
