Child Safety Feature

What’s the Benefit?

Helping to enhance protection of youngsters makes drivers feel much more confident on the road.


The Feature:

All Civic models are equipped with a child seat-mounting system called LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) in the outboard rear seating positions.

  • The LATCH system provides two lower anchors and an upper tether anchor.
  • When used with a compatible child seat, the LATCH system provides attachment points between the child seat and the vehicle seat.
  • A tether anchor is available for the remaining middle seating position in the second row.
  • All seat belts except the driver’s are equipped with a locking retractor that can be used to help secure a child seat.
  • Both rear doors on sedan and hatch models are also equipped with child-proof door locks for added protection.
