Did you know rear-end collisions account for a third of all serious speeding-related crashes? When you have Kia collision-avoidance assist installed in your car, you’re much safer from all forward-collision hazards. Read on to learn more.
Detect Threats From Cars, Trucks, Cyclists, and Pedestrians
Your Kia has a forward-facing camera at the top of the windshield and also a front radar on the grill. This feature uses both to monitor the road ahead for collision threats. If any vehicle, including a bicycle, or pedestrian suddenly creates a collision hazard ahead, your car will detect it, warn you about it, and help to avoid the collision.
If you also opt to install corner radars at the front of your Kia, you’ll expand the feature’s functionality. Note that the following aspects of this safety tech may come as standard or optional on your Kia. You can ask us about your particular model.

Whether you’re looking for unrivaled efficiency, advanced technology, or modern style, the 2025 Kia Niro Hybrid has got you covered. This is a vehicle that dares to be something new, offering all of these features and more in a single, elegant package. Keep reading to find out more about this classy hybrid’s best features.
1. Amazing Efficiency
The 2025 Kia Niro makes good use of its hybrid status, providing excellent mileage to the driver. This super-efficient vehicle offers an EPA-estimated 53 MPG in the city. You’ll get a slightly improved 54 MPG on the highway for a fantastic combined rate of 53 MPG.

In continually transmitting power from the engine to the wheels, your gearbox is under huge pressure. While Kia transmissions are enormously durable and long-lasting, it pays to help with a few solid maintenance fundamentals. The following Kia transmission maintenance guidelines will keep your gears shifting smoothly, quietly, and promptly for many years to come.
Check Your Transmission Fluid Monthly
The remarkably complex interior of any modern transmission entails hundreds of parts that all need to be properly lubricated. Along with lubrication, transmission fluid helps reduce heat and maintains necessary hydraulic pressure. You should check the quality and level of our transmission fluid once a month to make sure it’s still up to the task.

Comparing two standout options in the Kia SUV lineup.
When it comes to choosing a compact SUV, Kia gives drivers two standout choices in the 2025 Kia Seltos and the 2025 Kia Sportage. Both models offer modern styling, advanced technology, and confidence-inspiring safety features—but each caters to slightly different needs. Whether you’re looking for compact versatility or a bit more room for the road ahead, this comparison will help you decide which SUV fits your lifestyle best.
Size & Style: Compact vs. Spacious
The 2025 Kia Seltos is ideal for drivers who want a sleek, compact design with plenty of attitude.

Performance & Fuel Efficiency
Both SUVs come with available all-wheel drive and responsive engine options. The Seltos offers a choice between a 2.0L engine and a turbocharged 1.6L engine, producing up to 195 horsepower, while the Sportage brings a similarly smooth and capable driving experience with its 2.5L engine.

Is Leasing a Kia Right for You? Pros and Cons
The latest Kia leasing options mean that it’s never been simpler to get your next car. Whether you prefer an outright purchase or a lease, you’ll have flexible options to choose from. Leasing has become a popular option for many, but it’s not right for everyone. Head down to your local Kia dealership to find out which would suit you the best.
Pros
Affordable Payments
When you lease a Kia, you’re not paying for the full price of the car, just the cost for the period you use it. This means that monthly repayments are typically lower than financing the same car. There are many leasing arrangements that don’t require an upfront payment, which makes it an even more budget-friendly pick.
Complete Flexibility
A lease isn’t a long-term commitment, so it’s easy to change your car more frequently without a big financial outlay. You can pick the length of the lease to suit your circumstances, with different terms available. You can also choose from different ways to structure your payments, including plans with no upfront costs. This gives you maximum flexibility to find the lease that works for you.
