Kia Seltos SP2 (2021-2026) Owner's Manual: Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) in the Kia Seltos is designed to help detect and monitor vehicles approaching or traveling in the driver's blind spot area. When a possible collision risk is detected, the system may warn the driver with a warning message and an audible alert. In addition, when the Kia Seltos is driving forward out of a parking space, BCA may help reduce the risk of a collision with an approaching vehicle by applying emergency braking when necessary.

The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system in the Kia Seltos is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during cornering and other driving maneuvers where traction may be reduced.
