What Is Kia Drive Wise?

How Can I Find Kia Drive Wise?

Kia Drive Wise is a suite of advanced safety and driver-assist features found in many Kia sedans and SUVs. With this included safety technology, eligible Kia cars offer a variety of assistance whether you’re moving, parked, or sitting idle.

Some of the Kia models that take advantage of Kia Drive Wise include the Kia Niro, Kia Sedona, Kia Rio, Kia Sportage, and Kia Soul. Although most of these models offer variety in their body styles and size options, it makes no difference to the standard and available safety features.

For instance, one of the available Kia Drive Wise features you’ll find in most Kia models is Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go. This feature adapts to your driving environment by applying the brakes automatically or even maintaining the accelerator to keep a safe following distance from the motorist in front of you.

Keeping an Eye on the Road Ahead and Behind

There are numerous safety features in Kia Drive Wise that are designed with 360-degree protection. Take, for instance, the available Blind-Spot View Monitor. This goes above and beyond most blind spot features: Kia allows a live look at your blind spots with a display on your dashboard gauge.

Another inclusion that adds thoughtful driving intelligence is the available Driver Attention Warning. Here, the Kia feature will monitor the conditions around your Kia sedan or SUV—and it will even detect any potential inattentive issues. In other words, Kia Drive Wise will study your driving patterns to help prevent any incidents and keep you out of harm’s way.

The safety technology doesn’t just apply to sensors. The available High Beam Assist can automatically switch the intensity of your Kia’s headlights if it detects an oncoming motorist. Don’t forget the available haptic steering wheel, either. This futuristic rumble-like feature alerts drivers to Kia Drive Wise warnings as well as detects any potential threats.
