Think of a money market account as a mixture between a savings and checking account, often offering competitive interest rates and typically requiring a higher minimum balance.

The Swiss franc firmed to $0.8395, its strongest level against the dollar since January 2015, when the Swiss National Bank discontinued its policy of having a minimum exchange rate against the euro. Meanwhile, sterling rose to $1.2816, its highest since Aug. 10. The pound is headed for a 6% gain in the year, its strongest performance since 2017.

Keeping track of your electric vehicle's battery charge level and remaining range can help reduce the stress of the journey. Kia has incorporated a user-friendly approach to this aspect as well. You can easily monitor your battery's state of charge (SOC) and distance to empty (DTE) through a graphic gauge in the instrument cluster or center display screens. For added convenience, Kia has developed the useful and intuitive "Kia Access" app, allowing you to stay connected and informed about your EV's statistics. Thoughtful Design Steven Center, Kia North America's chief operating officer, notes that "foundationally, all Kias are equipped with 3-point seat belts, front/side/curtain airbags, as well as anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, and the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. But other safety factors engineered into Kia vehicles include a high proportion of ultra-high-strength steel, which helps strengthen the vehicle while limiting mass (or weight), making the cars fundamentally strong and light." Center also added that Kia's EVs implement specific measures that safeguard the high-voltage batteries, ensuring secure current flow within the vehicle

Kia's collaborative approach allows the company to explore various technologies such as Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communications, autonomous driving, and next-generation Augmented Reality Heads-Up Displays (AR HUD). Steven Center also emphasized that "crash avoidance and pedestrian protection remain NHTSA priorities, and Kia safety engineering is addressing this now and is expected to continue to prioritize this in the future". In a world where technology is evolving fast, EVs must keep pace with, and even remain steps ahead of the changing vehicle landscape. Kia is taking these steps through continued leading-edge research, collaboration and technological development.
