Redesigning a bestseller is a strange assignment. Change too little, and critics call it lazy. Change too much and loyal buyers feel abandoned. Kia faced that exact challenge with the 2027 Kia Telluride, a three-row SUV that already led its segment. The new model answers directly, with a sharper exterior and a redesigned cabin. Its lineup now stretches from practical entry trims to a serious off-road version. Few redesigns manage to feel both familiar and completely new all at once.
The 2027 Kia Telluride has no fewer than ten trims, starting with LX and moving through S, EX, and X-Line EX. From there, the lineup climbs through SX, X-Line SX, SX Prestige, and X-Line SX Prestige. It tops out with X-Pro SX and the range-topping X-Pro SX Prestige. LX and S share a rugged but imposing look on standard wheels and trim. The EX carries that same styling forward with a more upscale appearance. X-Line EX marks a noticeable visual shift, adding 21-inch wheels and raised roof rails. SX and SX Prestige have a profile similar to the EX. X-Line SX and X-Line SX Prestige repeat that same rugged treatment further up the lineup. Both X-Pro trims stand apart with 18-inch wheels, all-terrain tires, and styling built for rougher terrain.
Every 2027 Kia Telluride uses the same turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, producing 274 horsepower and 311 lb.-ft. of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to the front wheels. All-wheel drive is available on most trims and comes standard on SX Prestige, X-Line, and X-Pro models. Front-wheel-drive versions earn an EPA-estimated 20 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. All-wheel-drive models return 18 mpg city, 24 mpg highway, and 20 mpg combined. X-Pro models, tuned for rougher terrain, post 17 mpg city and 22 mpg highway, for 19 mpg combined. Properly equipped, the Kia Telluride can tow up to 5,000 pounds, backed by an available self-leveling rear suspension for added stability. X-Pro models add an off-road-tuned suspension and increased ground clearance to match.
The Kia Telluride seats up to eight, giving families room to bring everyone along. LX and EX offer three-row bench seating, while other trims switch to seven-passenger captain’s chair layouts. Legroom measures 41.4 inches up front, 43.0 inches in the second row, and 32.1 inches in the third. Cargo space spans 22.3 cubic feet behind the third row to 89.3 cubic feet with the rear seats folded flat. Every trim includes a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and SiriusXM. Higher trims add a second 12.3-inch instrument display, a Wi-Fi hotspot, dual wireless phone chargers, and a premium audio system. USB-C charging ports are accessible to passengers in all three rows. Kia backs every Kia Telluride with a full suite of driver-assist features. Adaptive cruise control and an available Surround View Monitor round out a technology package built to impress.
It’s quite a task when you must create a new version of a winning formula. Kia has achieved the almost impossible with the new 2027 Kia Telluride. It looks amazing, checks every box for its class, and the pricing for such a generous specification is almost unbelievable.
