Kia's Lane Keep and Lane Follow Assist Explained

August 11 2022,

Kia Lane Keeping Assist uses a front window camera to detect whether or not you’re driving within your lane. If you stray from your lane, it will use visual and audio cues to alert you, so you can correct your steering. Moreover, with some features turned on, the vehicle can actively steer itself into the center of the lane.

How Kia Lane Keeping Assist Works

When Lane Keep Assist is on, an indicator in your instrument cluster for Lane Keeping Assist will turn white. It will remain white when it doesn’t detect lane markers on whatever road you’re on or if you’re driving under 40 mph. If you’re going faster or the road has lane markers, it will turn green. You can customize this feature to alert you in a number of different ways. Some alerts are less imposing, and the others will definitely keep you on your toes.

Different Lane Keeping Assist Alert Modes

Active Lane Keeping Assist: In this setting, LKA will provide frequent feedback to help correct steering and prevent lane drift.
Standard Lane Keeping Assist: Standard mode only kicks in when you are about to depart from a lane without using your turning signal.
Lane Departure Warning: When the system detects that you’re about to leave your lane in this mode, it will use haptic, visual, and audio cues to alert you.
Off: You can turn the Kia Lane Keeping Assist system off anytime you like.

Which Kia Models Have LKA and LFA?

Most of the new Kia models have some form of Lane Keeping Assist technology with the higher trims usually featuring the most advanced form with active steering.
