Upmarket looks, mass-market price: The 2027 Kia Telluride, driven

The 2027 Kia Telluride is a second-generation redesign that grows in size, adopts Range Rover-inspired styling, and replaces its old 3.8L V6 with a turbocharged 2.5L four-cylinder (274 hp) or a new hybrid variant producing 329 hp and 35 mpg combined. Available in FWD or AWD configurations with multiple trim levels, the new Telluride is praised overall, though cabin engine noise under acceleration remains a notable drawback.
