2025 Kia Telluride

The 2025 Kia Telluride arrives in more trim levels than ever, each with distinctive styling and purpose-driven features. The introductory LX trim impresses with sculpted lines paired with a commanding front fascia, featuring Kia’s signature wide “tiger nose” grille and LED projector headlamps. The S trim gets burlier, adding roof rails, 20-inch alloy wheels, and a black-and-satin chrome grille with a horizontal design. Its power sunroof and Smart Power Liftgate add comfort and convenience. For the adventurous, the X-Line and X-Pro trims are off-road ready with rugged enhancements like increased ground clearance, high-utility roof rails, black bezel headlamps, and all-terrain tires, with the mechanics to back up their aggressive demeanor. Each trim builds upon the others with upgrades like LED fog lights, rain-sensing wipers, dual sunroofs, and a wide range of wheel options. Nature-inspired colors such as Wolf Gray, Dark Moss, and Jungle Green put the Telluride right at ease in New England’s lush landscapes.

The 2025 Kia Telluride is powered by a 3.8L V6 engine that delivers an impressive 291 hp and 262 lbs.-ft. of torque. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, you’ll enjoy smooth, yet assertive performance across all driving conditions.

With optimized fuel injection technology and a finely tuned throttle response, the Telluride maintains a balance between performance and efficiency, giving you the muscle needed for highway merging, mountain climbing, or towing a trailer, boat, or rec vehicles up to 5,500 lbs.

Engineered for versatility, the 2025 Telluride shines in any setting. Available torque-vectoring all-wheel drive with selectable drive modes enhances traction on snow, mud, and sand, making it perfect for exploring Maine’s varied terrain and braving harsh winters. The electronically controlled transfer case ensures real-time adaptability to road conditions, while self-leveling rear suspension adapts to the road ahead, providing the smoothest, most secure ride in adverse weather, on potholed roads, or under weight. The X-Pro takes capability to the next level with higher ground clearance and brawny off-road tires for confident grip on uneven surfaces. But if it’s just a fun drive you’re after, Sport Mode gives sharper throttle response and a connected feeling to the road. The Telluride is ready to adapt and overachieve.

Inside the 2025 Kia Telluride, luxury meets functionality. Up to 8 passengers are accommodated across 3 rows wrapped in premium materials like Nappa leather, available in an array of rich tones. Nearly all trims indulge you with heated front seats, while higher trims offer heated and ventilated seats in both the first and second rows. Tri-zone automatic climate control ensures every occupant’s preferences are met.

The Telluride keeps you entertained with a 12.3-inch curved dual-display system, offering wireless smartphone connectivity, Wi-Fi® hotspot, and navigation. Most trims supply a wireless charging pad to keep you connected and clutter-free. The Harman Kardon® premium sound system, coupled with the standard Quiet Mode cabin, creates an immersive experience.

The Telluride’s expansive cargo space and sliding, fold-flat second and third rows, offers flexibility for families, road trips, sports equipment, groceries, and toting bulkier items. Under-floor storage adds extra utility. You’ll be eager to open the dual-pane sunroofs and turn on the ambient lighting for an impromptu drive.

Kia’s Drive Wise safety suite promises peace of mind for every journey. Features like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Junction Turning, Lane Keeping Assist, and Blind-Spot View Monitor provide vigilant watch over the road.

Highway Driving Assist 2 takes semi-autonomous driving to the next level, with adaptive cruise control that incorporates machine learning to better anticipate driver behavior. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance and Safe Exit Assist protect against potential hazards when reversing or exiting the vehicle.

The Telluride’s high-strength steel structure and multiple airbags form the backbone of its safety profile, while advanced sensors continuously monitor for potential collisions.
