Available performance enhancing 19-inch Pirelli P-Zero tires mean you can keep it under control.

Sophisticated Sound
Your music follows you everywhere with twelve Bose speakers surrounding the cabin to give you a perfect driving soundtrack.
Smart Cruise Control with Highway Driving Assist
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) automatically adjusts to maintain the driver’s pre-set speed and to keep a safe distance from the vehicle traveling directly ahead. On highways where information is available, Highway Driving Assist (HDA) can control the vehicle’s steering, acceleration and deceleration functions.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)
Standard Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) is designed to help detect a potential collision and automatically apply the brakes in a variety of circumstances.
Junction Turning Accident Avoidance
New to K5 and the Kia brand is available Forward Collision Avoidance (FCA)-Junction Turning. The front camera and radar can detect vehicles when turning at intersections, helping you avoid collisions.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist (RCCA)
Standard RCCA scans for oncoming obstacles as you back up. If the system detects a potential hazard crossing into your intended path, it activates audio and visual warnings and possible braking intervention.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist-Rear (BCA-R)
Available BCA-R is designed to help detect vehicles in your blind spot in certain situations, including when you change lanes, and may apply the brakes to help mitigate a collision.
Safe Exit Assist
Safe Exit Assist (SEA) uses rear corner radars to detect any approaching cars from behind, warning your passengers. It overrides attempts to deactivate the Electronic Child Safety Lock until it’s safe for your rear passengers to open and exit the vehicle.
