2025 Kia Telluride

With a whopping 10 trims to choose from, there’s a Telluride to suit everyone. All trims command attention with a wide stance and Kia’s tiger-nose grille flanked by LED projector headlamps. The S trim adds roof rails, a Smart Power Liftgate with Auto-Close, and 20” alloy wheels that sharpen its silhouette, while the EX indulges you with power-folding side mirrors, LED taillights, and sound-absorbing glass. The SX trim elevates presence with dual power sunroofs and gloss black accents, as well as self-leveling rear suspension for a deep connection with the road. Trail-ready EX X-Line and SX X-Line trims bring rugged elegance with increased ground clearance, high-utility roof rails, and exclusive black badging, but the extreme adventurer wants the X-Line or X-Pro trims. All-terrain tires, high-utility roof rails, and exclusive nature-inspired colors make these trims a standout on or off-road. For the best of both ruggedness and refinement, the SX Prestige X-Pro is a force to be reckoned with, showing off premium materials and accents inside and out, greater approach and departure angles, and exclusive touches that create an opulent, exciting driving experience.

The 2025 Kia Telluride is powered by a 3.8L V6 engine, producing 291 hp and 262 lbs.-ft. of torque. This naturally aspirated engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, ensuring a smooth and powerful driving experience. Muscular enough to tow up to 5,500 lbs., but fuel-efficient enough to give you 26 mpg on the highway, the Telluride is as versatile as it is fun to drive.

The Telluride’s chassis is tuned for both comfort and control. Available torque-vectoring all-wheel drive with center-locking differential ensures traction across gravel and rain-slicked pavement. Self-leveling rear suspension maintains composure under load, while Tow Mode and Trailer Stability Assist enhance hauling confidence. The X-Line and X-Pro trims offer increased approach and departure angles and an electronically controlled transfer case to adapt to road conditions, making off-road excursions more than just a possibility. Drive Mode Select adapts throttle and steering response to match terrain, while Sport Mode indulges your thrill-seeking side. The Telluride is built to adapt and overachieve.

This cabin provides first-class treatment for up to 8 passengers. Higher trims greet you with dual 12.3” panoramic displays that merge infotainment and instrumentation into a seamless horizon. This gives intuitive access to wireless smartphone integration, Wi-Fi® hotspot, navigation, and an available Harman Kardon® premium sound system. The standard Quiet Mode cabin and available wireless charging complete the package. Higher trims also indulge you with Nappa leather upholstery and ambient lighting create a serene environment while heated and ventilated front seats in nearly all trims settle you in. With class-leading 2nd-row legroom, available heated and ventilated captain’s chairs in the 2nd row, and tri-zone climate control, everyone’s comfort is catered to. The Telluride boasts incredible flexibility with sliding, flat-folding second and third rows, under-floor storage, up to 87 cu. ft. of cargo space, and the Smart Power Liftgate which opens automatically when the key fob is nearby—no hands required.

The Telluride is a fortress, armed with standard Auto Emergency Braking with Pedestrian, Cyclist, and Intersection Turning Detection which scans the road ahead with radar precision. Blind-Spot Collision Warning and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist monitor the periphery, while Lane Following Assist and Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control maintain directional integrity and spacing. Available Surround View and Blind-Spot View Monitors provide real-time visual feedback, while an available 10” Head-Up Display alerts you to hazards without distracting you from the road. The Kia Telluride has your back from every angle.
