Kia, together with its sister company Hyundai, are starting to experiment with partially- and fully- autonomous driving technologies in real-world conditions, as the US state of Nevada grants Korean manufacturers permission to test autonomous driving technologies on public roads. Kia will test its Soul EV model packed with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, like Traffic Jam Assist (TJA), Highway Autonomous Driving (HAD), Urban Autonomous Driving (UAD), Emergency Stop System (ESS), and Autonomous Valet Parking technologies.
