In 2008 Honda Accord used cars were one of several different vehicles from Honda that won an award, other Honda brands were the Pilot, Odyssey, Element and the CV-R. These brands won most of the top safety awards for 2008. The reason for such demand from the public to own one of these vehicles is because of Hondas business model and that is to produce the safest vehicles made anywhere in the world today. There overall strategy is to win the top safety pick for as many different brands year after year.

Since 2003 Honda used cars have been in a program to make safety first, the program was called Safety for Everyone, this has benefitted all Honda vehicles since the start of this program. So it was no surprise to find that the 2008 Honda Accord was the best overall pick for the top safety award.

All 2008 Honda Accords came with active front seat head restraints; this was developed to reduce neck injury in a rear collision. The Accord also came with new side airbags, front side airbags and an Occupant Position Detection System for passenger side. The 2008 Honda Accord when tested was found to be very efficient in absorbing a frontal crash. This was due to its Advanced Compatibility Engineering for the front of the vehicle. The Advance Compatibility Engineering technology can also help with over-ride or under-ride situations that happen with frontal crashes.

Other neat safety options that come with the 2008 Accord was a new design in the front end of the body structure in which pedestrian injuries are lessen from frontal impacts. Overall Honda spends a huge amount of money each year to make its cars safer than the year before.
