Looking for the right Kia SUV near Hudson Valley?
The 2023 Kia Seltos has you covered & has quickly become one of the most popular compact SUVs on the market. This 2023 model year promises to be the ideal SUV for you, with these 5 impressive model updates.
1. New Acoustic Glass Windshield
The 2023 Kia Seltos had added a new acoustic glass windshield. This type of windshield is
designed to reduce noise from outside the vehicle. It works by incorporating a layer of sound-absorbing material between two layers of glass, which helps to reduce the amount of noise that enters the cabin.
Acoustic Glass windshields are becoming increasingly popular in new car models as they provide a more refined driving experience.
2. Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist-Rear
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist-Rear (BCA-R) of the 2023 Kia Seltos is a safety feature which uses radar sensors to monitor the blind spots behind the vehicle and alerts the driver with visual and audible warnings if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot.
If the driver ignores the warning and attempts to change lanes, the BCA-R system can actively intervene to prevent a collision by applying the brakes on the opposite side of the vehicle to steer the car back into its lane. This is known as Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) and is also included in the BCA-R system. Overall, the BCA-R system can help drivers avoid accidents and improve safety on the road. However, it is important to note that no system is perfect, and drivers should always remain vigilant and aware of their surroundings while driving.
3. Auto Emergency Braking Technology
The Auto Emergency Braking (AEB) is an advanced driver assistance technology that uses sensors, cameras, and radar to detect potential collisions and automatically apply the brakes to prevent or mitigate the impact for
Kia Seltos owners.
Auto Emergency Braking technology works by monitoring the vehicle's surroundings and detecting potential obstacles, such as other vehicles, pedestrians, or objects in the road. When the system detects a potential collision, it will alert the driver with visual and/or audible warnings, and if the driver doesn't respond in time,
it will automatically apply the brakes to slow down or stop the vehicle.
4. Lane Keeping Assist
The Lane Keep Assist feature of the
2023 Kia Seltos is an advanced driver assistance technology that uses sensors and cameras to monitor the vehicle's position on the road and help keep it within its lane.
Lane Keep Assist technology works by using sensors and cameras to detect the lane markings on the road. When the system detects that the vehicle is starting to drift out of its lane, it will alert the driver with visual and/or audible warnings. If the driver doesn't respond in time, Lane Keep Assist will gently steer the vehicle back into its lane, helping to prevent potential accidents.
Having Lane Keep Assist technology in your vehicle can greatly reduce the risk of accidents caused by lane drifting, especially in situations where the driver may be fatigued or distracted. It can also make long drives more comfortable and less stressful, as the system can help to reduce the amount of constant steering input required by the driver. A great feature for Dutchess County residents traveling on
Route 9 towards our Dutchess Kia location.
5. Safe Exit Warning
The Safe Exit Warning is an advanced safety feature of the
2023 Kia Seltos that alerts drivers and passengers to potential hazards when exiting the vehicle.
Safe Exit technology works by using sensors to detect approaching vehicles, cyclists, or pedestrians from the rear of the vehicle. When the system detects a potential hazard, it will alert the driver and passengers with visual and/or audible warnings to prevent them from exiting the vehicle and potentially causing an accident. This feature of the
Kia Seltos is especially helpful in situations where passengers, particularly children, may be unaware of their surroundings or may be difficult to see from the driver's seat. By providing an additional layer of safety, Safety Exit can help to prevent accidents and reduce the risk of injury or harm for all Crown Heights,New Paltz & Beacon commuters.
