What is Kia DriveWise?
Kia DriveWise is a suite of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) designed to make driving safer and less stressful.

From changing lanes to navigating stop-and-go traffic, DriveWise has your back.
Key DriveWise Features You’ll Love
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)
If the system detects a potential collision with a vehicle, pedestrian, or cyclist, it warns you, and can automatically apply the brakes to help avoid or lessen impact.
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go
Maintains a set following distance from the vehicle ahead. In stop-and-go traffic, it can bring your Kia to a complete stop and then resume speed automatically.
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) & Lane Following Assist (LFA)
Keeps you centered in your lane and provides gentle steering corrections if you drift without signaling. Perfect for long stretches of I-75.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)
Monitors your blind spots and can intervene with braking if you attempt to change lanes while another vehicle is detected.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA)
When reversing, RCCA warns of oncoming traffic from either side and applies brakes if needed.
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
Detects signs of driver fatigue or distraction and suggests taking a break when necessary.
