Electric Kia
Kia takes their technology to the next level with hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and all-electric SUVs. This SUV is powered by an electric motor that has a rechargeable battery and up to 217 miles of range on an 18-minute charge. These electric vehicles help reduce harmful emissions while giving you the power to go without fuel while on the road to Carlsbad.
Kia Connect
Enhance your Kia experience with Kia Connect technology that allows you remote access to features and services like climate control, charging, locking/unlock, Find My Car, stolen vehicle recovery, and more, all from the touch of your smartphone. Kia Connect even connects to your smartwatch, where you start your engine, view detailed car information, and adjust the climate before you even step inside. Sensors in the seats can detect movement after the doors have been locked, sending an alert on your smartphone if you forget Buddy in the back seat. Always arrive on time with Connected Routing, which gives you real-time traffic alerts and better arrival time accuracy.
Safety Technology
Throughout all Kia models, drivers can find dual front airbags, side curtain airbags for both front and second-row seats, and front-seat-mounted side airbags. An Iso-Structure composed of cutting-edge high-strength steel for outstanding rigidity and a further reinforced body is featured across many Kia vehicles. Kia vehicles are equipped with active safety features like Traction Control, Electronic Stability Control, and Electric Brake-Force Distribution. Other safety features for Kia vehicles include seat belt pretensioners that hold passengers firmly in place at the start of a collision. If there is an impact between a pedestrian and the vehicle, the lower leg form can minimize the bending of the pedestrian's knees, allowing them to fall onto the car, reducing injury.
Kia Drive Wise
You’ll always drive with peace of mind, with Kia Drive Wise which features a suite of progressive driving features. These features that are available on certain Kia vehicles can help drivers by warning of cross-traffic behind the vehicle, or automatically braking if a potential collision is detected. Displayed in the dashboard gauge cluster, is the available Blind-Spot View Monitor, which can show a live feed of your blind spots. If an object is detected in your blind spot while trying to change lanes, the available Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist-Rear will help maintain your previous course.
Connectivity
Stay connected on the road, in all the right ways with features like Apple CarPlay which allow you to access your iPhone through voice command, talk to Siri, play music, or send a text. Android Auto is also available in most Kia models, and it allows you to use Google Maps, receive texts and access all your favorite apps through the touchscreen. Leave the cords behind with Kia’s wireless smartphone charging options that are available in many Kia models.
