Kia EV2: Vehicle safety system / Multi-Collision Brake (MCB)

Kia EV2 (QV1, 2026-2026) Owner's Manual / Driving your vehicle / Vehicle safety system / Multi-Collision Brake (MCB)

Multi-Collision Brake (MCB) controls the brake automatically in the event of an accident where the air bag deploys to reduce the risk of additional accidents that may occur in your Kia EV2.

  • From the time the air bag deploys, MCB monitors the depression intensity of the brake pedal and accelerator pedal for a short period. The system operates when the following conditions are met:

    • Vehicle speed is under 180 km/h (112 mph) at the time of collision.

    • The brake pedal and accelerator pedal are hardly depressed.

  • When the driver steps on the brake pedal over a certain level whilst MCB is active, the braking power takes priority over automatic braking by MCB. However, if the driver takes the foot off the brake pedal, MCB will maintain automatic braking.

Non-operating condition(s)

MCB is cancelled in the following situations:

  • The accelerator pedal is depressed over a certain level when the vehicle's READY indicator is displayed.

  • If the vehicle stops.

  • If ESC or electronic devices has malfunctioned.

  • In a situation system cannot operate normally.

  • Approximately 10 seconds have passed since the brake has been controlled automatically by MCB.

WARNING

  • MCB decreases vehicle speed after a collision and reduces the risk of a second collision, but it does not prevent a second collision. You may drive away from the collision spot to avoid other dangerous situations by depressing the accelerator pedal.

  • After the vehicle is stopped by MCB, the system stops controlling the brakes.

    Depending on the situation, the driver should depress the brake or the accelerator pedal to prevent further accidents in your Kia EV2.

    Hill-start Assist Control (HAC)

    Blind Spot Mirrors

    If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle's blind zone.

    Driving with the Blind Spot Mirror

    Actual Mirror View

    When the approaching vehicle is a long distance away, the image in the main mirror is small and near the inboard edge of the mirror. As the vehicle gets closer, the image in the main mirror gets larger and moves outboard. As the vehicle enters the blind zone, the image transitions from the main mirror to the blind spot mirror. When the vehicle is in the blind zone, the image only appears in the blind spot mirror.
