Safety

The EX35 comes standard with a slew of good safety features, including active front head restraints; four-wheel-disc antilock brakes; side-impact airbags for the front seats; side curtain airbags for both the front and back rows; an occupant classification system that adjusts airbags based on crash severity and seat belt usage; and traction control with an electronic stability system.

The Around View Monitor system that’s available with the Technology Package ($1,950) literally takes your full environment into account. It uses cameras on every side of the EX35 to see objects or cars and presents it all to you on the central screen.  With a camera system this sophisticated, you can rest assured that this is a car that’ll promptly alert you if you’re about to hit anything, no matter the direction.

The Technology Package also includes a Lane Departure Prevention system that alerts you if you drift into another lane when you’re going over 45 mph. The system first sounds an alarm and then lightly applies the brakes while you get back on track. Since I’m such a precise driver (ha), I had to “pretend” to go adrift in my lane. Sure enough, the trusty EX35 beeped me back into submission and kept me on the straight and narrow.

FAMILY LIFESTAGE

In Diapers: There’s not enough room, especially if you’re using a rear-facing infant seat.
In School: It’d work fine for kids who are in booster seats and older.
Teens: They’d be the envy of their friends after being dropped off at school in this car.
