- In this video, you’ll learn how the Lane Follow Assist and Lane Keep Assist features are different from each other in Kia vehicles. One of these features makes the car being able to basically drive on its own!
If you haven’t seen our Self-Driving Kia video, please check it out!
We also have a video on the best 5 features in Kia Sportage 2023 and the interior and exterior of this cool car.

Real smart doing this while you drive! Appreciate you video but stay safe.
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.
It’s our pleasure!:) Wow, we didn’t even know about those voice activated features! We’ll have to check that out soon! Out of curiosity, which model Sportage do you have?
I agree with you. I love watching this RUclips channel. From these lovely people I have learned so much about my car. Things the dealer couldn’t even answer. My lane follow assist was a bit questionable at first. It was like I was driving on a balancing beam. I now know that it’s because the lane keep assist was on also. So I set the keep to warning only. Now the car seems like it’s following the cars in front of me without the wobbly stuff. Lol😂 oh and a feature that my 10 year old daughter loves is the voice recognition to open the tailgate. I swear she’s going to break the darn thing. When I come home I have to let her tell the car to open the trunk or I will not be able to go in the house with her crying. LOL!! I love that feature because I always have a million other things to grab before I get out and a lot of the times my husband is looking at me to hurry up. One thing I wish Kia would change is the side cameras. In my sister telluride her cameras are perfect. You can see in night and day. Mine will show good in the day but at night the view is choppy. It’s not clear and bright. I’ve tried to see if I could change how the camera is viewed, like the backup but I didn’t have any luck there. Aside from that I absolutely love the 2023-2024 Sportage.
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.
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.
That’s a good strategy, that way you are doubly covered! How do you like your X-Pro by the way?:)
@@Polina-K I love it, the lane centering is best used when you’re just letting the car move down the road, some moderate curves only. Because when you’re actually steering it’ll keep trying to correct the vehicle in center of the lane, and when you’re actually steering the vehicle you’ll drift as normal driving occurs and that can be annoying.
@@Polina-K I love it
It works on curves?! Well that's comforting. Lol
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.
Kia is own by Hyundai. Both are South Korean but are independently run.
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!
Thanks for the support! I also feel that it comes to a more abrupt stop behind stationary cars. It can definitely be jarring, especially if you leave your foot off the brake! I have learned to trust it, but it could definitely use an upgrade and smoother stopping control. To answer your questions, I don’t know a setting to make it stop further back. I assumed it would stop further back if you set your smart cruise control to the maximum distance, but as you said that usually correlates to when in motion.
@@Polina-K totally- it's a very nice system! Would like to see how the most recent HDA2 from KIA performs in comparison! (I think the refreshed 2024 Sorento will have HDA2 as an option!)
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 👍
Excellent and congratulations! How do you like it? Yours will have some more features then ours. Possibly lane changing assist, and/or parking assist?
@@Polina-K we love it so far I believe she is 100% happy with her purchase of the Kia Sportage. We liked it so much. I also got the EV9 for me … 👏🏾
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?
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?
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.
Teslas are great if you own a home with a charger. Otherwise hybrids are the way to go.
Why are the icons sometimes green and other times not
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
It will ask you to put your hands back on the wheel in both modes. In LFA though, you can drive for several minutes without it asking as long as you’re going straight. We’ll make a new video demonstrating that soon😄
On the Kia sportage it takes very little pressure on the wheel to keep it from alerting. I really like this system and use it all the time. On a long trip, the vehicle will take most cures by itself. Makes driving long distance less stressful.
My car is peeping instead of keeping me in the middle of the road. What can I do?
I had to drive 350 miles this week. There was a lot of highway construction that forced me into shoulder area. What happens if you use follow assist? Does it recognize lanes discrepancies?
Most of the time lane follow assist will turn off when there are lane discrepancies. Sometimes LFA will stay on when smart cruise control tracks the car in front of you and follows them. This is kind of similar to how LFA will stay on course when you pass through an intersection (no lanes, but it follows the car in front of you with smart cruise control). As a rule of thumb, whenever there’s construction we always keep our hands on the wheel:)
LKA can be activated or disabled by pressing the LFA button for more than 3 seconds.
Wow that’s crazy, we didn’t even know that!
It's complicated. I changed my mind about buying Kia
I watched the entire video and still have no idea what the difference is. 😂
Can you keep both on simultaneously?
Yes you can!
Yup @@Polina-K
What trim is it
2023 Sportage SX - prestige!
LKA will not work at slower speeds FYI
That’s true! In our experience LFA works starting at 15-20 mph, but LKA won’t start working until you hit around 40 mph. Definitely worth considering!
hmm wait wipers coming on without rain ?
It was actually drizzling, but it’s not visible from the video. The wipers are set to turn on automatically when they detect drops of rain on the windshield!

My Honda civic 2020 have these features..
Your 2020 Honda civic is garbage
I wonder how this compares to Tesla basic auto pilot.
Pretty similar, from the videos I’ve seen on it! I’m biased, but I’ll give the advantage to the Kia because you can keep your hands off the wheel for a long time.
Geniuses who came up with this and the naming (sarcasm). Most people will be confused and not use the Keep.
Maybe you are confused, but I am not. I use the system all the time. It is incredibly simple to learn and use.
@@rcairflr When videos are made explaining ... QED
Why is this an 8m video?
Most stupid thing you can do is put your hand through the steering wheel while driving
Epic blunder! I won’t repeat🫡
this is so confusing
