The 2024 Kia Niro is a nicely equipped car with a cutting-edge design and numerous features drivers love. Some of its best features include those that keep you safer, so let’s take a look at the safety features you’ll find on this car when you head to your Kia dealer.


5 Safety Features of the 2024 Kia Niro at Your Kia Dealership

1. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist Technologies

Sometimes hazards unexpectedly end up in your path, giving you very little time to hit the brakes before you crash. Your Kia Niro is equipped with cameras and sensors to detect these hazards, and the car sends you an alert to help make you aware of potential collisions. This is to allow you extra time to hit the brakes. Your car can also activate the brakes for you if necessary.

For extra safety, you can also equip your Niro with a version of this feature called Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Junction Turning. This version of the feature detects oncoming cars when you’re turning left at intersections.


2. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist

Obstacles can also show up suddenly when you’re backing up. So, your car is equipped with a feature that alerts you to these obstacles, allowing you to hit the brakes ASAP. The rear parking sensor can also help make you aware of obstacles that get in the way when you’re backing up.


3. Lane Following Assist

Your Niro monitors lane markings with its front-view camera. This is so your car can apply corrective steering if it detects you getting too close to the edge of your lane. The goal of the lane following assist system is to keep you as centered in your lane as possible for maximum safety.


4. Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control with Stop and Go

With cruise control, you set the following distance you’d like, and your car maintains it. The Niro keeps track of the speed of the car in front of you and adjusts your speed as needed.

The cruise control system also uses navigation information to make sure it accounts for curves in the road. When it encounters a curve, it slows down your car and then speeds up again once the road is straight.


5. Highway Driving Assist

With Highway Driving Assist, your car does the work to maintain your speed and keep the optimal distance from the car in front of you. This particular feature works on certain federal highways and intends to make highway driving safer and a little more relaxing. You’ll need to keep your eyes on the road in case of potential hazards.

With a safety package like that, you’re sure to feel secure when you get behind the wheel of the Kia Niro. Come to Kia of Coatesville to take one out for a test drive today.
