Thanks Patrick! A 2025 HEV purchased locally claims ( written on the msrp sticker ) both lane keeping & lane following assist; now I have to adjust the digital settings and activate it.

Thank you both so very much for this review. I’ve had my Sportage for 5 months now and I keep learning new things all the time. I didn’t know I could roll down the windows from the remote. I didn’t know voice command can control the temperature until last week. And yesterday I learned that voice command can also open the lift gate. I’m highly amazed with my car. Your video today taught me about the self drive feature. I thought it was something dealing with cruise control. One of my favorite features is that the car will kinda force you back in your lane if you drift, or lane change without signal. Kia, has done an amazing job styling this car.

I’ve used both features on my X-Pro as long as it can read the lanes, it works and on curves too. Definitely a plus. Still stay aware and focus.

You can also start/stop lane keeping assist from pushing and holding the wheel key. Even if by short push starts/stops the lane follow assist. So the button has 4 functions depending on how long you push it. I have an XCeed and I read the manual :)

Having rented lots of cars, kia & Hyundai's cars seem to have the best lane centering assist (lane follow assist), vs Honda / Toyota and other brands.

Thanks for the demo. My wife just got the 2024 Sportage XPro Prestige and I was wondering what the difference in these modes was. We just picked it up today so now I can go test this out, thanks 👍

[prepperdan]

how long will it stay in the lane before you have to interact with steering wheel?

[darrenoliver]

I have a 2023 kia sportage gt line in the UK... Drives me mad that I cant permanently turn off the lane safety features... Everytime I turn the engine on I have to go through the whole process of disabling them again... Is it possible to disable the safety features permanently?

[glennkneebone]

Please, please note that the system is NEVER hands free. Kia is very explicit about this. Can you remove your hands, sure. Should you? No. When it looses the lanes or you encounter a turn that is too banked, etc. it will just disengage. No warning. Not even a beep. It is an assist. Nothing more. It does work very well. Same with the traffic jam assist. I am impressed with mine. Didn’t want this but it was standard on the sx-prestige HEV. Now I’m glad I have it.

We have a 2021 Kia seltos SX And we love it

Thanks for showcasing the difference between LKA and LFA!

Question: When using smart cruise control, do you notice that when the car comes to a complete stop behind the lead car, that the KIA stops too closely to the car in front?

We have tried many different adaptive cruise systems and KIA has one of the best, but when the car comes to a stop behind the lead vehicle, it stops too close to the car in front. I wish KIA has an option to set a further stopped distance with the lead car... not just when in motion. Thanks!

Real smart doing this while you drive! Appreciate you video but stay safe.

[grega]

Does it let you keep your hands off the wheel, or does it ask you to put your hands back on the wheel no matter which feature your using. ( also what does it do if you don't put your hands back on the wheel after being prompted?) Thanks

[chuckwalla]

I think Lane Keep Assist works even when the cruise control is off.

If the car comes to a stop while using cruise control and the the engine shuts off, how do you get going again?

[Oomphfreak]

My car is peeping instead of keeping me in the middle of the road. What can I do?

[cherylewood]

Why are the icons sometimes green and other times not

[sanjeevp]

I’m not sure how useful this system is because it does not work well when the lanes split, when the lanes merge, and when the construction zone starts. Because it makes you complacent, I think it can be very dangerous.

[hashtagtnt]

hmm wait wipers coming on without rain ?

[mikefanchin]

I notice most manufacures force YOU to decide which of lhe individual assist features you want to use and when. In many cases you only use features on premapped roads. Lane Assist, park assist, traffic jam assist... Tesla is so much easier. It just works virtually everywhere under virtually all conditions.

LKA can be activated or disabled by pressing the LFA button for more than 3 seconds.
