Even though the Kia Forte is a compact car, it still has plenty of room for incredible technologies to make your morning commute easy and convenient.
We all know that safety is the most important part about buying a new car, truck, or SUV. Sure, you’re going to need something that fills your needs, but if it isn’t safe, you’re probably not going to use it as your every-day driver. Thanks to the impressive Drive Wise technologies available on the 2018 Kia Forte, you’ll never have to worry about finding a safe way to get to work, or to get your kids to school.
By making use out of a sensor located behind the rear-view mirror, the available Lane Departure Warning System is capable of reading the markings on the road, and detecting your position within your lane. If the system begins to sense that you’re unintentionally veering out of your lane, it will send you a visual and audible alert to get you back into your lane. If you want to change lanes on purpose, simply put your turn signal on and the system will know that you want to change lanes.
Also available on the 2018 Forte is a Blind Spot Detection system. This time, the sensors are located along the sides and on the back of the Forte. These sensors monitor the area around your Forte, and will let you know when another car, truck, or SUV is in an area that you may not be able to see. When there is another vehicle alongside of you, a warning light will illuminate on the corresponding side-view mirror letting you know it’s not safe to change lanes yet.
