DUAL-STAGE, DUAL-THRESHOLD FRONT AIRBAGS In addition to the three-point seat belts, the front airbags and on EX and EX-P models, front side airbags provide added protection in the event of a sufficient impact. And dual-stage, dual-threshold technology enables the front airbags (SRS) * to deploy at one of two rates and thresholds, depending on the force of the impact and seat-belt use. *Honda reminds you and your passengers to always buckle up. Children 12 and under are safest when properly restrained in the rear seat. IT S A NO-BRAINER Two wheels, or four wheels? It doesnt take a whole lot of deliberation when snowy paths or rocky roads are part of your journey. The available Real Time T 4-wheel drive automatically engages when the going gets rough and you need more traction. When the sophisticated 4WD system senses wheel slippage, it automatically sends power to the rear wheels, helping you right through that tough, tricky terrain. No buttons. No stopping. STOP IT The 4-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS) help prevent wheel lockup to help you maintain steering control during hard braking. All models also feature Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), which adjusts front-to-rear braking effort to enhance vehicle control and stability. Front airbags inflate and deflate in a fraction of a second. Element 4WD EX shown in Atomic Blue Metallic with accessory roof rack and aftermarket fork-mount attachment.
