5 Smart Safety Features You’ll Find on Today’s Kia Vehicles

If safety is a priority to you as a driver, a modern Kia car is an excellent option. Kia has won awards for its innovative car safety features and offers a wide range of very effective safety and driver-assist features keeping you and your passengers safe from harm. If you visit your nearest Kia dealership, here are a few of the best features you’ll find in the modern Kia cars on display. 

5 Smart Car Safety Features You’ll Find on Today’s Kia Vehicles

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist

As you drive a Kia, both a forward-facing camera on the windshield and a radar on the front bumper monitor the road ahead for wandering pedestrians, abruptly slowing cars and other collision threats. If any near or distant threat is detected, your car warns you and applies the ideal amount of brake force to avoid the collision. 

Pedestrian Bumper Systems

Pedestrian accidents are unfortunately common. If a pedestrian ever dashes into the road directly in front of your car, causing an unavoidable collision, your Kia’s bumper is designed to minimize the harm caused. 

Tire Pressure Monitoring System

The condition of your tires is essential for safe driving. If tires become over or under-inflated, they might lose traction at a critical moment, causing a skid. Incorrectly inflated tires also have a tendency to overheat, which puts them at risk of blowing out. 

Your Kia reduces the risk of both skids and blowouts by automatically monitoring the air pressure inside your tires. At all times, you’re kept fully aware of the pressure in your tires and you know whenever a little more or less air is required. 

Vehicle Stability Management

Modern Kia vehicles can even monitor the road directly beneath your wheels and ahead of your car as you drive. By collecting data several times a second, your car detects any suddenly bumpy or uneven patches of road and can make adjustments to your steering and brakes until the risk has passed. 

Smart Cruise Control With Stop-and-Go

Driver fatigue is a real threat on long drives. Your Kia can help you rest by taking over the wheel, brakes, and acceleration for long stretches of highway. By maintaining a preset distance from the vehicle in front, the Smart Cruise Control feature keeps your Kia driving steadily while you take your hands off the wheel. With Stop-and-Go, it can even come to a halt in traffic and automatically start up again when the traffic clears.
