The 2011 Accord Sedan earned a 5-star safety rating in each combined NCAP category[1]quite an honor, especially given the new, more stringent standards enacted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Every Accord Sedan helps protect you with a host of standard safety features, including Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA
®) with traction control and active front head restraints. Plus, every Accord features standard front, front side and side curtain airbags to help reduce the likelihood of injuries in a collision.
[1] Based on frontal crash, side crash and rollover categories. Government 5-Star Safety Ratings are part of NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program (
www.SaferCar.gov). Model tested with standard side airbags (SABs). Vehicles tested under the new program cannot be compared to MY10 and earlier vehicles.
