What is new on the redesigned Telluride?
Kia skipped the 2026 model year and jumped to a fully redesigned 2027 Telluride. The headline changes are a new turbocharged 2.5-liter engine in place of the previous V6, the first-ever Telluride hybrid, updated styling inside and out, and more standard technology. Rugged X-Line and X-Pro variants return for buyers who want a more capable look and available all-wheel drive.
