32.559 -> After spending a year with the Telluride,
we have only grown fonder of this large Kia.
37.34 -> The 2020 SUV of the Year winner still feels
like a premium product, providing high levels
42.01 -> of quality, style, features, technology, and
refinement without a high price tag.
47.88 -> Before the refresh, the Telluride won a three-way
comparison against the Toyota Highlander and
52.09 -> Jeep Grand Cherokee L for its feature-per-dollar
value, killer styling, and clever use of space.
57.46 -> And that was before Kia added a pair of 12.3-inch

for the 2023 refresh.

91.57 -> passenger seats enjoying its smooth ride.
94.26 -> Although we would like more low-end torque

97.579 -> V-6 engine, it's easy to see why the three-row
is so compelling.
101.88 -> The Telluride's 3.8-liter naturally aspirated

130.33 -> AWD returns 24 mpg.

163.599 -> angles have improved.
165.25 -> Thanks to updated transmission tuning and
sway control, an upgraded Tow mode is available
169.75 -> for trailering, and the Telluride's traction
control system has been revised.
174.3 -> The exterior X-Line kit includes a trim-specific
radiator grille design and 20-inch wheels,
179.14 -> body color-matched door handles, bridge-type
