Meet the 2027 Kia Telluride: Redesigned with More Power, Space & Adventure-Ready Tech
Kia’s flagship three-row SUV is back with a bold redesign for 2027. The new Telluride debuts a stronger standard engine, expanded cabin space, cutting-edge tech, and a sleeker design. Starting at $40,735 (including destination), it raises the bar for family-friendly versatility.
Under the Hood: Turbo Power Meets Hybrid Innovation
The 2027 Telluride now features a standard 2.5L turbocharged engine, delivering 50 lb-ft more torque than its predecessor for enhanced towing and acceleration. For the first time, Kia will also offer a hybrid (HEV) variant, though pricing remains under wraps until late Q1 2026.
X-Pro: The New Off-Road King
Adventure seekers will love the rugged X-Pro trim—now the pinnacle of the ICE lineup. Upgrades include:
- Wider all-terrain tires and reinforced suspension
- Electronic Limited-Slip Differential (E-LSD)
- Multi-terrain AWD drive modes
- 9.1 inches of ground clearance
- Off-road status display and Ground View Monitor
Despite its trail-ready chops, the X-Pro retains the Telluride’s signature refinement for daily driving.
Tech-Focused Interior
Every model includes:
- Seating for up to 8 passengers
- 12.3-inch touchscreen with built-in navigation
- Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto
- Tri-zone climate control
- 19 advanced ADAS safety features—all standard, bucking the industry trend of paywall-restricted tech.
