The Civic Hybrid helps protect you and your precious passengers with leading-edge safety technology.
Civic Hybrid with Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) was named a 2010 TOP SAFETY PICK by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). According to the IIHS, the award "recognizes vehicles that do the best job of protecting people in front, side, rear, and now [for 2010] rollover crashes."
On the safe side.
Essential safety features such as side curtain airbags and dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags (SRS) are standard on the Civic Hybrid. Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) was added in 2009 for increased protection.
