New Kia Cadenza can park nearly all by itself
The future has arrived; think back to films like the Fifth Element or Minority Report and I am sure you were thinking “Wow, will we ever live in a world that futuristic?” Well folks, we are almost that high-tech as the new Kia Cadenza brings us one step closer.
We have been hearing about this concept for some time, cars automatically parking themselves and finally this technology is within arm’s reach. The Kia Cadenza comes equipped with a Parking Assistance System (PAS), which serves as eyes that monitor the front and back of the vehicle. Equipped with ultrasonic sensors, the PAS is capable of detecting obstacles surrounding the vehicle and it will respond to them when the vehicle is close to an obstacle, with warning sounds.
How does this magical luxury feature actually work? Depending on how far away the sensors detect the obstacle, an alarm will sound at timed intervals, as the distance between the vehicle and the car lessen, the alarm sounds will emit more sounds in less time. Essentially the closer you are the more beeps you will hear.
Aside from the auditory aid there will be a visual aid warning you in the form of graphics that will appear on the cluster monitor. A warning light will provide appropriate and accurate warnings to the driver. The Cadenza has a total of six sensors to help safely and successfully park your vehicle, with two in the front and four in the rear. Who knows, very soon the car might just drive itself.

In addition, Gurnee used car dealerships are excited about the PAS, but they are also interested in the new Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS). Cars are slowly, but surely, morphing into HAL 9000, the new Kia Cadenzas have a mind of their own and are capable of recognizing car lanes.
The new Cadenza will trigger warnings when the vehicle diverges from a lane by checking with a camera that recognizes lanes in front of the car. Sounds like this might become annoying; every time you change a lane your car is going to bother you with a warning signal, right? Actually the system will only warn you if you deviate from a lane without using your turn signals. The LDWS and the PAS are excellent safety features allowing drivers to be more confident and comfortable when driving and parking their cars.
These new systems open up a whole new realm of possibilities when it comes to electronically controlled features.
