5 Superb Safety Features of the 2024 Kia Seltos

Forward Collision Avoidance

Utilizing camera and sensor technology, Forward Collision Avoidance, which is standard on all models, helps reduce the risk of any kind of frontal collision. The system can detect imminent collision risks, including threats from pedestrians and cyclists. It then warns you and can also apply the brakes to help avoid an accident. 

If you choose to equip your car with front corner radars, this feature can even monitor neighboring lanes for incoming hazards. The Junction Turning Detection feature on the SX trim can even detect and help avoid collisions when making turns at junctions.

Lane Keeping Assist

A combination of lane-related safety features on all 2024 Seltos models helps to ensure you don’t accidentally change lanes at the wrong moment or wander unintentionally into a neighboring lane. While active, Lane Keeping Assist provides continual feedback to help you stay centered at all times. While passive, the feature will only kick in if you start to drift too close to another lane. 

Lane Following Assist can even make adjustments to your steering. And Lane Departure Warning provides a visual, audio, and haptic (touch-based) alert if you’ve wandered toward a neighboring lane. 

Blind-Spot Collision Warning

Standard on all except the LX trim, Blind-Spot Collision Warning keeps a close digital eye on your blind spots at all times. This makes changing lanes safer as you’re always kept aware of any vehicles approaching in the lane you’re about to turn into.

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist

Similarly, it can be hazardous to back out of closed spaces with limited visibility of the road behind and to either side. With Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist, your SUV extends your visibility to mitigate this risk. 

This feature monitors the road to either side with radar or ultrasonic waves and alerts you with an audio cue plus a light on the corresponding mirror if any kind of vehicle is approaching. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist also comes as standard on all but the LX trim. 

Driver Attention Warning

When fatigued from too much driving, it can sometimes be difficult for drivers to be aware of the danger. All 2024 Seltos models come with a clever feature that protects you against tiredness. This feature monitors how frequently you take breaks and lets you know how alert and attentive to the road you’re likely to be on a scale from 1 to 5.
