All New 2027 Kia Telluride Release Date Info

As the 2027 Kia Telluride release date approaches, it feels like the appropriate time to take stock of this midsize three-row SUV's roots and look ahead to its future. The all-new 2027 Telluride made its official world debut at the 2025 Los Angeles Auto Show, and Wagner Kia of Shrewsbury is so excited to soon see all the new features that will make the Telluride's return worth the wait. Please contact us or revisit this page for more updates as they unfold. In the meantime, see what we already know below.

Kia Telluride: A Brief History

First introduced as a concept car in 2016, this family-focused midsize SUV garnered enough positive attention to join Kia's lineup a few years later. It was designed in the United States - specifically for American drivers - with a bold, boxy appearance and potent V-6 engine, winning major awards for its inaugural 2020 model year, including MotorTrend's SUV of the Year.1

Over the years, the Telluride has undergone a gradual evolution, adding in advanced tech and trending toward a more stylized interior. Instead of releasing a 2026 model, Kia went back to the drawing board to dream up a statement-making 2027 redesign for this beloved automobile.

Highlights of the 2027 Kia Telluride

The 2027 Telluride refresh welcomes enhanced, thoughtful design inside and out. On the outside, its chiseled appearance is reminiscent of the Rocky Mountains and its namesake town in Colorado. On the inside, its large space is highlighted by refined appointments and cutting-edge technologies. One of our personal dreams came true with the newly available hybrid powertrain, which boasts 329 combined horsepower and reaches a Kia-estimated 35 MPG (Combined).2 The standard turbo engine is similarly impressive, reaching 274 horsepower.

There are seven Kia Telluride trim level choices for 2027: LX, S, EX, SX, SX-Prestige, X-Line, and X-Pro. All trims boast exceptional comforts, conveniences, and innovations, while others offer additional capabilities. For example, the X-Pro features wider all-terrain tires and 9.1 inches of ground clearance, ready for adventures and comfortable on uneven terrain.

At 199.2 inches long on a 116.9-inch wheelbase, the Kia Telluride exterior is more than 2 inches longer than the previous model. That additional length translates to a maximum of 86.9 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the front row. Even with all seats in place, this three-row Kia SUV features up to 22.3 cubic feet of cargo room.

Wider front relaxation seats with power leg rests are available for elevated comfort, as is an Ergo Motion massage function for the driver. Second- and third-row passengers enjoy up to 43 and 32.1 inches of legroom, respectively, ensuring every person enjoys a fantastic driving experience. Visually and audibly, the interior is uplifted by available features such as ambient lighting and the Noise Vibration and Harshness Package, which comprises enhanced triple door seals, an increased thickness of the door glass, and a greater use of sound-absorbing materials.

Dual 12.3-inch panoramic digital displays are available with over-the-air updates, allowing for intuitive and straightforward media management and customization. Meanwhile, the Kia generative AI assistant can answer questions, give suggestions, or even keep you entertained on the road.
