Honda Stream Body

A high-precision body combines passenger comfort, driving performance, and stability.
- Use of strong, lightweight, high-tensile steel has been expanded, along with tailored blanks that incorporate fused steel plates of varying thickness and materials for more efficient strengthening. This results in increased rigidity and a 10kg reduction in body weight over the previous model. 
- Pillar joints have been strengthened to improve the rigidity of the body door frames, and the sub-pillar located behind the front pillar in the previous model eliminated to secure increased visibility and contribute to a cleaner outer appearance.


Honda Stream Advanced Features

A full range of advanced features imparts a level of comfort and security normally only found in higher grade vehicles.
- The IHCC (Intelligent Highway Cruise Control) [5] vehicle speed and distance control system helps reduce the burden on the driver during freeway driving. It assesses driving conditions using data from vehicle speed and yaw rate sensors, along with data from a millimeter-wave radar unit built into the front grille of the vehicle that measures the distance to the vehicle ahead. In addition to maintaining the vehicle at a set speed, this cruise control system automatically regulates vehicle speed and distance depending on whether or not there is a vehicle in the same lane ahead. 
- The Honda HDD InterNavi System [6] with rear camera utilizes the enormous information storage of a high-capacity (30GB) hard drive to deliver a wide range of information. The 7-inch touch-panel display provides an easy-to-see, easy-to-operate interface, while Bluetooth [7] compatibility enables wireless connection with cellular phones for even more powerful communications capabilities. 
- The Honda Smart Card Key System [8] allows the card key holder to lock and unlock the doors and tailgate and operate the ignition with a single touch.

Honda Stream Safety Performance

Advanced safety performance of Honda Stream prevents accidents before they can occur, predicts and prepares for impending accidents, and mitigates injury and vehicle damage should a accident occur.
- The Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) system - which includes the Antilock Brake System (ABS), Traction Control System (TCS), and sideslip control [9] - works in combination with the DBW electronic throttle control that optimizes engine torque to achieve more precise vehicle control. 
- The Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMBS) [9] uses millimeter-wave radar, assessing collision risk based on inter-vehicle distance and relative vehicle speeds. As a risk of collision is assessed, the system uses audio and visual warnings and light braking to alert the driver and prompt preventative action. As collision risk increases to the point where a collision unavoidable, the system activates the brakes more firmly to help reduce vehicle speed and mitigate damage and injuries. 
- A side curtain airbag system [10] for the first-to-third-row seats is available as a set option combined with the front-seat i-side airbag system. 
- Honda's Crash Compatibility Body enhances passenger protection while mitigating impact on the other vehicle. 
- The vehicle is also designed to mitigate pedestrian injury in the event of a collision. 
- The head shock protection interior designed to protect vehicle occupants form shocks to the head in the event of a collision. 
- All Honda Stream models are equipped with front seats designed to reduce the impact of a rear collision on an occupant's neck area. 
- All Honda Stream models are equipped with ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) with EBD (Electronic Brake Distribution) and brake assist.
