If you’re comparing three-row SUVs around Menomonee Falls, WI, the 2027 Kia Telluride deserves a top spot on your list. It’s engineered for families who want substance and style, with up to 8-passenger seating, class-leading 2nd-row legroom, and a broad range of driver-assistance technology. From school-day shuttles to weekend cabin runs, Telluride delivers the confident performance, smart packaging, and intuitive tech that online shoppers prioritize. At Russ Darrow Kia of Waukesha, our team uses a research-first approach to help you choose the right Telluride—gas or Turbo-Hybrid—along with a trim level and options that fit how you actually drive in and around Menomonee Falls. Consider this your local buying guide to the 2027 Kia Telluride’s capability, comfort, safety, and trims.
The 2027 Kia Telluride is built to bring confidence to every mile. The standard gas powertrain uses a responsive 2.5-liter turbocharged engine with 274 hp and 311 lb.-ft. of torque for smooth merging on US-41/45 and highway stretches toward Milwaukee. When properly equipped, Telluride tows up to 5,000 lbs., making it a practical partner for trailers, small campers, or lake-ready gear. Available All-Wheel Drive with Terrain Mode and an available Electronic Limited Slip Differential enhance traction where you need it most, and the X-Pro trim pushes trail-readiness even further with 9.1 inches of ground clearance, all-terrain tires, recovery hooks, and an available Ground View Monitor. Shoppers can also opt for the all-new Turbo-Hybrid powertrain for robust output and impressive total range, adding yet another way Telluride adapts to your life.
Telluride’s cabin is intentionally spacious, smartly organized, and easy to live with. Families appreciate the easy-access 3rd row, helpful storage touches, and the intuitive placement of controls. The available panoramic display vividly presents navigation, media, and vehicle information, while convenient features such as the Smart Power Liftgate, 2nd-row sunshades, and Passenger Talk help reduce daily friction. Whether you’re running errands along Appleton Ave. or loading up for a long weekend, the 2027 Telluride’s interior turns busy days into well-orchestrated ones.
With up to 29 available driver-assistance and collision-avoidance features, the 2027 Kia Telluride brings a robust, modern safety suite to your daily drive. These systems are engineered to help reduce stress in traffic, support visibility in parking lots, and add confidence on I-41/45 or Capitol Dr. when the flow of traffic ebbs and surges. Importantly, many advanced features are available across trims so you can align safety and convenience with your priorities.

Many rivals make comparable driver-assist or camera systems optional on only their highest trims, while Telluride makes advanced tech widely available across the lineup. Its X-Pro hardware—higher ground clearance, recovery hooks, and the available Ground View Monitor—adds trail confidence you won’t commonly find elsewhere.
