The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) sets and upholds safety standards for today's vehicles. Their highest honor is the Top Safety Pick+ award, which only the safest vehicles can earn. The Pilot had to pass the IIHS's rigorous tests to achieve this distinction.
The 2025 Honda Pilot Earns Top Safety Pick+
The Honda Pilot consistently earns this recognition. Honda's "Safety for Everyone" philosophy ensures their team meets the IIHS's strict criteria. The Honda Sensing suite is a significant factor in the 2025 Pilot's safety performance, which bundles the most advanced features into one system. This system includes collision mitigation, pedestrian detection, and adaptive cruise control. These smart features improve driver awareness and reaction times, complementing the Pilot's robust structure.
Honda's commitment to safety extends beyond technology with the Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure. The ACE design protects in two ways: It reinforces areas of the vehicle likely to experience impact and provides additional restraints for occupants, helping to hold them securely even in severe collisions. These smart and physical safety measures make the 2025 Pilot worthy of the Top Safety Pick+ title.
Top Safety Pick+ honors are awarded based on performance in six key categories, measuring how well a vehicle handles front, side, and overlap crash scenarios. The IIHS also evaluates the vehicle's headlights and pedestrian crash prevention day and night. To earn the Top Safety Pick+ award, the 2025 Pilot had to excel in these categories and did so easily. Honda's dedication to improving safety in their SUVs is evident in the Pilot's outstanding safety scores.
