What makes Honda cars some of the best family cars on Iowa roadways today? It’s intelligent safety technology like Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow, a feature included in the Honda Sensing® suite.
Not only will ACC keep a safe distance between your Honda and the detected vehicles ahead of you during highway cruising, but ACC can also slow and/or stop your Honda using multi-sensor systems if the detected vehicle ahead of you slows to a stop.
Adaptive Cruise Control is an improvement over conventional cruise control because of its multi sensor systems, and focus on passenger safety based on the car ahead of yours.
Ride along with Vern Eide Honda Sioux City as we explore how to use Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow.
Whether you’re taking a road trip across the Hawkeye State or across the United States, ACC is designed to make freeway, interstate, and highway driving easier. ACC systems are an integral part of advanced safety features available on new Honda vehicles, using innovative technology and a multi-sensor system.
ACC helps you and other drivers to maintain a safe following distance from other cars, and responsive cruise control that keeps passengers safe with Honda Sensing innovations and technology, one of many systems from Honda designed to give you peace of mind, every time your car leaves your home.
The system allows you to maintain a constant cruising speed in your vehicle, set the following interval between you and detected vehicles ahead of you, and even help stop your Honda with electronic braking if the vehicles in front of you come to a stop.
Follow the steps below to turn on your Adaptive Cruise Control:
The instrument panel will display your set cruising speed along with a vehicle icon that has up to four bars behind it to indicate the interval or following distance setting between you and the detected vehicles ahead.
Honda ACC has four different distance settings to choose from with your vehicle in relation to other vehicles, including Short, Middle, Long, and Extra Long distance.
To set distance setting simply press the interval button (vehicle with four bars) on your steering wheel until the desired interval has been set.
You may want to adjust this setting, depending on slow traffic, stop and go traffic, low speeds, other cars, passenger safety, and comfort preferences.
The ACC icon in the instrument panel will display your interval setting with the number of bars representing the distance.

* ACC technology cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object or car ahead; accuracy will vary based on weather, following distance, speed and other factors. ACC should not be used in heavy traffic, adverse weather conditions, or on winding roads. ACC only includes a limited automatic braking function and may not bring the car to a complete stop. Driver remains responsible for slowing or stopping the vehicle to avoid a collision. ACC is part of the Honda Sensing suite of safety innovations from Honda, designed to improve passenger safety whether you are highway driving, in slow traffic, or at a stop and go pace.
