While some companies comply with government airbag requirements simply by reaching onto the shelf of existing technology, Honda led the industry through advances such as driver and front passenger airbags with "dual output inflators" that adjust the deployment force of the airbags to the severity of the crash, position of the driver and seat belt use.
Honda also introduced the first system to sense when a child or small-statured adult in the front passenger seat is in the path of deployment of the side airbag, and to stop the airbag's deployment until the occupant returns to a desirable position.
Thanks to some innovative engineers at Honda, driver and front passenger airbags, front side airbags and side curtain airbags are now prominent in every Honda vehicle as of 2008. To learn more about Honda and their commitment to safety, contact your sales consultant today. Excerpts from Honda.com
