While Reno drivers have more than a few options in the midsize sedan segment, no competitor can match the 2020 Kia Optima's blend of accommodations, features, and value. It's sporty and spacious, with an upscale cabin, excellent driving feel, and lots of amenities. Among those amenities, Optima offers a full array of advanced driver-assistance technologies, with most being standard on every model.
Whether you're shopping to upgrade your commuter or seeking a spacious and practical family sedan, Kia knows that safety is a top priority. That's why every 2020 Optima comes standard with Kia DriveWise driver aids. These systems leverage the latest automotive camera and sensor technologies to enhance your awareness by:
- Helping to better recognize hazards
- Providing intuitive warnings
- Providing steering and braking intervention when necessary
Standard Kia Optima Advanced Safety Features
Here's a quick look at the DriveWise technologies that come standard on all 2020 Optimas:
- Forward Collision Avoidance-Assist with Pedestrian Detection: This system monitors the road ahead for other vehicles and pedestrians that may appear to be walking into your line of travel. If a collision seems likely or you're following too closely, it will sound an alert. And if you can't respond in time, the system will automatically apply the brakes to help avoid or mitigate the severity of impact.
- Blind Spot Collision Warning: When a car is in or approaching your blind-spot, this system will provide an indication, so you know when you're in the clear. And if you start to move over before the lane is clear, it will sound an alert.
- Rear Cross Traffic Collision Warning: Backing out of your space in a crowded grocery store parking lot is much easier with this warning system. When in reverse, it monitors for objects approaching from either side, so you'll know when it's safe to back up.
- Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keeping Assist: This system will alert you if it senses the vehicle unintentionally drifting from your lane. And if you don't respond in time, it can apply corrective steering to get you back on track.
- Parking Distance Warning-Reverse: When backing into a space, this sonar sensor monitors for obstacles in your path and warns you if you get too close.
- Driver Attention Warning: This system monitors for signs of drowsy or inattentive driving and can alert you that it's time for a rest.
- High Beam Assist: When it detects oncoming or leading vehicles, this system automatically lowers the high beams so they don't interfere with other drivers.
Available Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go
Optima EX models and above come standard with Smart Cruise Control. This system is particularly helpful for mitigating driving fatigue during a tedious commute or long road trip. It automatically maintains a preset distance between you and the car in front, limiting the need to continually switch between the brake and accelerator pedals. It even works down to a complete stop and can start again when traffic begins to move.
