The 2020 Telluride three-row midsized SUV offers seating for up to eight people and is one of the best in the category, competing against the Chevrolet Traverse, Honda Pilot, and Subaru Ascent. The Telluride has a slick 291-hp V6 paired with a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission. It rides comfortably, and the cabin is quiet. The interior is roomy and comes with several well-thought-out details, such as one-touch fold/slide second-row seats. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available. Towing capacity is 5,000 pounds. Standard advanced safety systems include forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and blind spot warning. The 2022 model gains a standard 10.25-inch center touch screen display. The Telluride was refreshed for 2023 with new interior and exterior styling, an updated 12.3-inch infotainment system, and new off-road oriented trims. Second-row side airbags became standard for 2025. The Telluride also received version 1.5 of Kia's Highway Driving Assist system as standard.
