Model Overview

A Closer Look at the 2027 Kia Telluride

The 2027 Kia Telluride steps confidently into the three-row SUV conversation with a thoughtful blend of powertrain choice, family-focused space, and advanced driver assistance that speaks directly to real-world use. Shoppers around Waukesha, WI who split time between school drop-offs, I-94 commutes, and weekends in Lake Country will appreciate how intentionally the Telluride is built. You get a robust 2.5L turbo gas engine with up to 5,000 pounds of towing, plus an available turbo-hybrid that targets strong combined efficiency while supplying 329 horsepower and up to 4,500 pounds of towing. Inside, class-leading 2nd-row legroom and available seating for seven or eight make daily life easier, and the available digital cockpit with nearly 30 inches of combined displays positions navigation, audio, and vehicle info right where you want it. Add in available All-Wheel Drive with Terrain Mode, an available Electronic Limited Slip Differential, and the trail-ready X-Pro trim featuring 9.1 inches of ground clearance and all-terrain tires, and the Telluride is ready for Southeast Wisconsin’s mix of city streets, rural two-lanes, and boat launches.

On the Road

Performance & Capability for Every Mile

Whether you’re taking the long way up County Road C or merging onto I-94 toward Milwaukee, the 2027 Kia Telluride puts confident performance at your right foot. The standard 2.5-liter turbocharged gas engine delivers 274 horsepower and 311 lb.-ft. of torque for easy passing and controlled towing. If you prefer an electrified edge, the available 2.5-liter turbo-hybrid powertrain targets 329 horsepower and up to 4,500 pounds of towing, pairing punch with long-range confidence. Available All-Wheel Drive with Terrain Mode and an available Electronic Limited Slip Differential help distribute traction in Snow, Sand, or Mud, while available self-leveling rear suspension helps maintain a composed stance with trailers or a fully loaded cabin. For drivers who venture beyond pavement, the X-Pro SX Prestige brings 9.1 inches of ground clearance, all-terrain tires, front and rear recovery hooks, an available Ground View Monitor, and an off-road display to help you read the terrain at lower speeds.

2027 Kia Telluride - How It Stands Out
Competitive Strengths

How the 2027 Kia Telluride Stands Out

  • Room for real adults in row two with class-leading legroom
  • Up to 29 available driver assistance and collision avoidance features
  • Trail-ready X-Pro hardware with 9.1 inches of ground clearance
  • Available digital cockpit with nearly 30 inches of combined screens
  • Gas and turbo-hybrid powertrains tailored to different priorities

In a segment filled with strong choices, the Telluride shines by balancing spacious comfort and forward-thinking tech without losing sight of daily drivability. Some competitors offer off-road packages but lack recovery hooks, a dedicated Ground View Monitor, or as much ground clearance in comparable trims. Others deliver substantial screens, but not the cohesive, nearly 30-inch digital cockpit available here. And while many three-row SUVs promise “room for everyone,” the Telluride’s class-leading 2nd-row legroom gives adults the space they expect on trips between Waukesha and Brookfield or longer days toward Door County. Up to 29 available driver assist and collision avoidance features rival or exceed what you’ll find elsewhere, with systems like Highway Driving Assist 2 designed to help on certain highways when engaged. For local shoppers who need a confident, family-ready SUV that can also pull a utility trailer, handle a gravel drive near Minooka Park, or park neatly off Madison Street, the 2027 Telluride is a smart, well-rounded fit.
