2025 Kia Telluride Review
The Telluride SUV is Kia’s largest SUV. It sits above the smaller Sorento. The Telluride was first sold in 2019. It has just undergone a recent refresh for the model year 2023, bringing an updated front fascia, interior and rear fascia, as well as two new trims, X-Line and X-Pro, for light off-roading.
Exterior changes are minor. There are also new wheel and grille designs, as well as a change in the headlight signature. Telluride’s blocky design will age well, but it still retains its attractiveness. The X-line test car that I drove was equipped with raised roof rails and 20-inch wheels exclusive to trim. It also had body-colored door handles. The Wolf Gray exterior is also great at hiding road dirt.
The interior has been transformed by the dual, 12.3-inch screens that are curved. Before, the Telluride had that ugly screen-tacked-on-top-of-the-dashboard look; now, it’s much cleaner and far easier to read. The HVAC vents have also been slightly redesigned. Second-row seats are available as either two captain’s chairs or a bench for three people. Third-row passengers only have the option of a bench that can seat three people. The powertrain remains unchanged. A 3.8-liter V6 naturally aspirated engine is available, paired with an eight-speed auto that can send power to either the front wheels or the four wheels depending on the trim level you choose.
Specifications & Features
The 2025 Kia Telluride Traveler is no exception. Its mighty 292 horsepower comes from the v6. Telluride 2025 Ex version gets a 10.25-in. screen. The driver will also find a USB 2.0 port and a far-field screen, as well as Wi-Fi. This version is also equipped with an audio system, 5 USB plugs, and a Wi-Fi feature. This will allow you to ask for smartphone gadgets which will make traveling easier.
Interior
It is expected that the 2025 Kia Telluride SUV will be a carryover. This popular sport-ute received an important update last year, for the model year 2023. We can still tell you what to expect from the spacious and high-tech cabin of this SUV. The 2025 Kia Telluride will arrive with standard three-row seating that can accommodate up to eight passengers. It also offers a seven-seater option using the second-row captain’s chairs. The 2025 Telluride should have a QuietZone interior to provide a peaceful driving experience. Nappa leather seats are also available for a premium feel.
The 2025 Telluride is expected to be equipped with dual 12.3-inch panoramic displays, as well as Open Skies Dual Sunroofs. This will provide the high-tech and luxurious cabin amenities that many families and drivers desire.

Driving
It was strange that despite the 8.4-inch ground clearance I didn’t have to climb up as high to enter the Telluride. The seat was not a big step up for someone as short as me in its highest position. This made getting into and out of the vehicle a breeze. The Telluride is a comfortable SUV that has a sluggish feel for the city and slower driving. The feedback you receive is all soft. You’ll feel the gentle brakes, the light steering, the supple suspension, and the smooth, imperceptible shifts in transmission. The V6 engine provides plenty of power to keep it moving. Never once did I ever feel that I could not pass or merge safely. Parallel parking was a breeze with the 360-degree camera and thanks to the large and upright windshield, visibility was clear and unobstructed.
The Telluride was at its best on the highway. The transmission was in eighth gear, and the engine was quietly spinning in the background. The car was transformed into a comfortable and spacious rolling home, with plenty of legroom for my passengers and a great place to nap. The Telluride gave off a sense of security as if it were content to cruise along and nothing could disturb it. The “eco mode” allows for more efficient driving. I used it most of the time during my loan. The car’s trip computer reported that I averaged 22.8 mpg after driving mostly on highways.
Because it is a Kia/Hyundai, the Telluride was equipped with an excellent Highway Driving Assist System. The car took care of the rest. With the radar cruise control and lane-keeping on, I just had to keep my hands on the steering wheel and watch out for other cars. It was able to monitor all cars in the adjacent lanes and adjust its speed accordingly.

The base LX trim Tellurides are equipped with the V6, an eight-speed automatic transmission, front-wheel-drive, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, and cruise control. They also have several driver safety features. The MSRP of these vehicles starts at $37 025. The test vehicle was in the SX X-Line AWD upper-tier trim, which included 20-inch black wheels, X-Line styling on the exterior, a tow mode, and a self-leveling suspension at the rear. It’s starting MSRP was $53,120. The total MSRP of the vehicle was $54,120 after adding options like Wolf Gray exterior paint (495), Terracotta Interior Color Pack ($295), and carpeted flooring mats (210).
The competition is the Kia Sorento (starting MSRP $31,285), which has more options for powertrains. You can also get the Dodge Durango with a V8 ($40,090), the Honda Pilot is larger ($39,375), the Mazda CX-9 is stylish, but has less room inside, and everyone seems to have the Toyota Highlander (starting MSRP $37,755). The Highlander and Pilot have been perennial favorites for many reasons (price point, space, reliability, etc.) but the Telluride is a great alternative.
