2018 Kia Optima - Safety
SAFETY OVERVIEW
Protection for all, all around. The Optima uses more than 50% Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS). A ring-shaped section, defining the boot opening behind the rear seats below the shelf, substantially increases body rigidity. And hot-stamping of components in 16 core stress areas boosts the body structure for better driving dynamics and a quieter ride.
BLIND-SPOT DETECTION (BSD)
Like eyes in the back of your Optima, the standard Blind-Spot Detection (BSD) helps detect vehicles in your blind spot, and offers both visual and audible warnings.
5-STAR SAFETY.
The 2018 Optima embodies Kia's continued commitment to safety, earning a 5-Star Crash Safety Rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It comes standard with advanced passive safety features, like the comprehensive airbags and seat belt systems, built to be your first line of defense in any crash.
SURROUND VIEW MONITOR (SVM)
We've got your back. Front and sides, too. Conveniently maneuver in and out of tight spaces like a pro. As a part of Kia Drive Wise technology, available Surround View Monitor (SVM) gives you a bird's-eye view around your vehicle. Plus, every 2018 Optima comes equipped with Rear Camera Display so you can reverse with confidence.
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) scans for objects moving into your intended path. If the system senses a potential hazard, it will give you audio and visual warnings.
TCS, ESC, VSM, HAC
A suite of active technologies designed to keep you in control. The Traction Control System (TCS) helps avoid wheel spin when you accelerate, while Electronic Stability Control (ESC) helps you stay on course with improved stability. Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) offers increased steering control when driving in harsh road conditions, and Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC) helps keep your vehicle in place as you move off an incline.
EBD, ABS, BAS
Experience advanced braking for more precise control. Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) helps deliver more consistent braking as weight load and distribution change. The Antilock Braking System (ABS) helps reduce skidding, and the Brake Assist System (BAS) senses emergency braking situations and increases braking when needed.
TIRE-PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
The Tire-Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) continuously monitors the inflation pressure in all four tires and warns you when the pressure drops below a specified range.
