Telluride SX Prestige X-Pro AWD
Engine: 3.8L V6
Torque: 355 Nm
0–100 km/h: ~7.1 s

While not a traditional performance SUV, the Kia Telluride SX Prestige X-Pro delivers strong, smooth acceleration from its 3.8-liter naturally aspirated V6 engine. Producing 291 horsepower and 355 Nm of torque, it can sprint from 0–100 km/h in roughly 7.1 seconds — quick for a three-row family SUV. The 8-speed automatic transmission is responsive and refined, with well-calibrated shifts that keep the engine in its power band during acceleration or steep climbs.

Thanks to a well-tuned suspension and solid chassis rigidity, the Telluride offers surprisingly agile handling for its size. Steering is accurate and direct, and ride quality remains composed even on rougher roads. The X-Pro trim adds 18-inch black wheels with all-terrain tires and enhanced cooling and towing capacity (up to 5,500 lbs), providing trail-ready poise without sacrificing road manners. Though not meant for high-performance driving, the Telluride maintains control and comfort at highway speeds and through sweeping curves.

The Telluride’s sportiness lies in its balance: power when needed, calm at cruising, and quiet competence under load. It rewards confident driving with predictable handling and class-leading refinement, making it an ideal choice for those who want subtle strength over flash.

Body Styles

The Kia Telluride is a three-row midsize crossover SUV, combining a boxy, upright silhouette with refined design language. It features a wide stance, squared-off fenders, and a high shoulder line that give it SUV-like ruggedness while retaining a premium, upscale look. Its long 2900 mm wheelbase allows for excellent interior space, and the short front and rear overhangs support strong visual proportions. Vertical LED lighting signatures, gloss black trim (on sportier trims), and bold grille designs give the Telluride a commanding presence. The rear tailgate includes wraparound taillights and clean branding, contributing to a modern yet rugged aesthetic.

Model Name Meaning (Manufacturer)

The name “Telluride” references the town of Telluride, Colorado, a high-elevation mountain destination known for skiing, hiking, and upscale adventure. Kia chose the name to evoke wilderness, exploration, and American outdoor luxury, positioning the SUV as a rugged yet sophisticated family hauler.

Model Name Meaning (Languages)

“Telluride” carries connotations of geological grandeur and elite travel, especially in North America. The term also nods to “tellurium,” a rare element, subtly reinforcing rarity and value. Globally, the word is exotic yet approachable — suggesting upscale exploration without pretension.

Body & Interior Colors and Rims

The Telluride is available in a wide range of refined colors such as Wolf Gray, Ebony Black, Everlasting Silver, Midnight Lake Blue, Dawning Red, Glacial White Pearl, and Jungle Green. The X-Line and X-Pro trims offer exclusive matte or earth-tone finishes like Desert Sand or Wolf Gray Matte, along with darkened trim elements, roof rails, and skid-plate-inspired accents. Gloss black and satin chrome trim differentiate trims visually, while LED light signatures front and rear maintain consistency across the lineup.

Inside, the Telluride impresses with a wide, horizontal dashboard design, open-pore wood trim (in SX and Prestige trims), premium Nappa leather (on Prestige), and dual 12.3-inch curved screens forming a unified display. Interior themes include Black, Gray, Sage Green, and Mahogany, depending on trim. Heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats, wireless charging, ambient lighting, and a full-color head-up display reinforce its luxury positioning. Materials and touchpoints are consistently high quality throughout.

Wheel options range from 18-inch alloys on base and X-Pro trims (with all-terrain tires) to 20-inch black or machine-finished rims on EX, SX, and Prestige trims. Wheel designs are distinctive, with bold spokes, dark themes, and contrasting finishes — emphasizing both rugged readiness and premium appeal.

Top Expensive Options

  • SX Prestige Package (Nappa Leather, HUD, Ventilated 2nd Row): $2,500
  • Dual 12.3" Panoramic Curved Display with Navigation: $1,200
  • Surround View Monitor with Blind Spot Cameras: $800
  • Harmon Kardon Premium Audio (10 Speakers): $800
  • Tow Mode with Upgraded Cooling + Trailer Assist: $600
  • Smart Power Tailgate with Hands-Free Function: $400

vs Competitors

The Kia Telluride is frequently benchmarked against the Hyundai Palisade, Honda Pilot, Toyota Grand Highlander, Chevrolet Traverse, and Mazda CX-90. Compared to the Palisade, it shares a platform but features bolder styling and slightly more rugged trims like X-Pro. Against the Pilot, it offers more upscale interior materials and sharper design, though Honda now matches it in tech. The Grand Highlander offers hybrid options, but the Telluride counters with standard V6 strength and a richer cabin. While the CX-90 brings rear-drive dynamics and luxury ambition, the Telluride undercuts it in price while matching its comfort. It remains the segment’s gold standard — offering the best blend of value, design, comfort, and capability.

Fun Fact

The Kia Telluride became the first Korean SUV to win North American Utility Vehicle of the Year (2020), and its demand quickly outpaced supply in multiple global markets. It was so well-received that some dealers reported used Tellurides selling above MSRP, solidifying its reputation as the go-to full-size SUV for families seeking luxury-level features without the premium badge price
