Kia’s Drive Mode Select function available on many of our cars allows you do just that. By adjusting the engine, gearbox response, and steering weight, the system allows drivers to customize and optimize the steering feel of Kia vehicles. With the push of a single button, Kia drivers can gain…

Although hybrid cars are receiving more and more widespread attention, we find that customers are often misinformed about the advantages of these eco-friendly models. So let’s take a look at some of the common misconceptions about hybrid vehicles. 1. Finding charging stations for hybrids is difficult Unlike full-electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles, hybrid cars do not require any sort of charging. Hybrid cars are powered mainly by a gasoline engine, and the electric motor, powered by a separate battery, only works to assist the engine. Hybrid cars…

Invented in 1903 and first implemented in motor vehicles in 1916, windshield wipers (or windscreen wipers) have now faded into the background as ordinary and commonplace parts of a car. While windshield wipers have played a significant and enduring role for over a century, even they are subject to some major transformations in today’s era of technological advancement. The technology behind windshield wipers has not changed in any major way over the past 100 years, so they are not without areas that require fine tuning. One of the biggest complaints about wiper performance is their tendency to streak and squeak. Rubber wiper blades have a limited service life and …
