What safety features are available on the 2019 Kia Forte?
Rear-camera display
This is as much of a safety feature as it is for convenience. Every 2019 Forte comes standard with a backup camera, which allows you to see everything behind you. It’s important to remember to still check your surroundings, but this feature acts as an extra safety net.
Blind spot collision warning
Drivers of the EX trim will get the Forte’s blind spot collision warning. This feature keeps your awareness in check by subtly alerting you when another vehicle is detected in your blind spots. This is very helpful when changing lanes, but, again, always check over your shoulder whenever you make a turn or change lanes.
Forward collision-avoidance assist
In critical situations, this system works independently of the driver to apply the brakes when necessary. This is both an active safety feature and a passive safety feature as it helps to prevent accidents from happening, but it can also reduce the effects of a collision.
Other safety features on the 2019 Kia Forte include lane keep assist, front and rear crumple zones, an impact-absorbing steering column, parking distance warning, and smart cruise control. To learn more about automotive safety, contact us!
