ENHANCED SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES
The new 2018 Sorento is available with Kia’s latest DRiVE WISE Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) (1). These technologies are at the heart of Kia’s philosophy to create intelligently safe vehicles designed to avoid or mitigate the effects of collisions. One superb example is the new Driver Attention Warning (DAW) system, developed to combat distracted or drowsy driving by alerting the driver if it senses a lapse in concentration. Other new safety features including a Lane Keeping Assist, and full LED headlamps with Dynamic Bending Light make the Sorento one of the safest cars in its class.
