Going off the beaten path in your Honda SUV has never been easier, thanks to the innovative TrailWatch camera system. It's an advanced feature on select Honda models that gives drivers increased visibility and peace of mind on rugged terrain. Let's take a closer look at how TrailWatch helps you confidently explore the great outdoors.
Multiple Camera Views
The TrailWatch system utilizes four cameras mounted to the exterior at the front, sides, and rear of the vehicle. When activated, the cameras display a real-time 360-degree view of your surroundings on the dashboard screen. This bird's-eye perspective makes it easy to spot obstacles, uneven terrain, and tight clearances as you navigate off-road.
You can switch between different camera views depending on the situation. The front camera is beneficial when climbing steep inclines. Side cameras help when maneuvering through narrow gaps or inspecting conditions alongside the vehicle. The rear camera provides a clear view behind you, aiding in backup and parking situations.
Guidelines and Grid Lines
The TrailWatch display overlays helpful guidelines and grid lines on the camera views, showing your projected path based on the current steering angle. This allows you to anticipate your trajectory and make precise adjustments. Grid lines provide a reference for gauging distances to objects around the vehicle.
Automatic Activation
The TrailWatch system activates automatically when you shift into low range on new Honda models with four-wheel drive (4WD), ensuring the cameras are ready to use when crawling over rocks or descending hills. You can also manually activate TrailWatch with the push of a button for on-demand use.
