What does Highway Driving Assist (HDA) do? As part of the Hyundai SmartSense safety pack of advanced features and driver-assistance technology, Highway Driving Assist is designed to help Iowa drivers with long commutes and road trips. HDA works in conjunction with Smart Cruise Control (SCC) and Lane Following Assist (LFA) to help you maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, stay centered in your lane, and even help make sure your vehicle is following the speed limit by using your GPS location and available highway data. Join the staff at Vern Eide Hyundai Sioux City as we review Highway Driving Assist.
Hyundai’s HDA system builds on the capabilities of SCC and LFA, and helps make long highway drives easier to manage. This driver-assistance technology can actually sense when your vehicle is on certain controlled access roads in the United States like Interstate 29.
