Great vehicle! Would buy another any time!!
By Booney110 | on Tuesday, February 02, 2021
We love our Kia Telluride. We have put every one of the 35,500 miles on it. We would buy another one any time. No problems with it so far and we have owned it for almost two years (05/20). It has been on several long trips and averages almost 28 mpg on the highway. SX model is amazing!! So many high value options included. Very good vehicle. Exceptional!!! A++++… - 4.0
Odd things left out
By Trm4444 | on Friday, December 16, 2022
Overall an excellent vehicle. Minor annoyances are the fact that a garage door opener is only standard on the highest trim. Digital Instrument display is a little cheap looking and not very user friendly or informative. Other than that, it's a comfortable ride with a bunch of room. Has built in sunshades in the rear doors which is nice to have. USB ports everywhere even in the 3rd row.… - 5.0
Telluride is a Hidden Gem
By Dana Ian | on Monday, August 14, 2023
If you were to ask me 10 years ago if I would spend 40k on a Kia I would look at you sideways. Fast forward to now and I’d take this bargain truck any day.. I feel sophisticated driving it and love the comfort/Styling! Kia did their thing on this model for sure, forget other luxury brands that cost double and look no further…
