Fort Smith drivers have an all-new SUV choice to be excited about this year! The 2027 Kia Telluride is a next-generation take on the well-loved Kia SUV, upgraded for power, comfort, versatility, and style.
Now available with two distinct powertrains, the new Telluride gives you a choice: a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder for traditional SUV muscle, or a brand-new turbo-hybrid that brings striking fuel efficiency to the three-row class.
What’s New
- The hybrid Telluride will deliver 329 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque, pairing strong acceleration with great fuel economy. Kia estimates around 35 mpg combined and a total driving range of up to 600 miles, which is a major upgrade for a three-row SUV.
- For those who prefer a traditional setup, the base engine remains a turbocharged 2.5L four-cylinder, designed to deliver dependable performance whether you’re hauling kids, groceries, or gear.
Why Drivers Already Love the Telluride
The Kia Telluride has long been one of Kia’s most popular models, and it’s easy to see why. One of Kia’s flagship SUV’s, the Telluride is known for being capable, spacious, and refined, built for everyday drives and long-haul adventures alike. Families and adventurers alike have fallen in love with its luxury look and feel, capability, and price tag.
In the 2027 model, drivers will recognize the same confident, premium design, the smooth and quiet driving feel, and the functionality that works for both families and travelers. The upscale interior experience is still here too, with quality materials, intuitive technology, and thoughtful comfort features that continue to set Telluride apart from the typical full-size SUV.
More Comfort & Space
- The 2027 Telluride is larger overall — giving more second- and third-row legroom, easier access, and extra cargo space behind the 3rd row.
- Inside, you’ll find a refined cabin: available front relaxation seats with leg rests and driver massage, power-operated second-row captain’s chairs, and optional heated seats for all three rows.
- Added touches like dual wireless phone chargers, updated steering controls, and thoughtful comfort upgrades turn every family road trip into a smoother ride.
X-Pro: Built for More Than the Highway
- For those who want capability beyond city streets, the new X-Pro trim has you covered. With wider all-terrain tires, an electronic limited-slip differential (E-LSD), multi-terrain AWD, and a lifted 9.1-inch ground clearance, X-Pro delivers off-roading capability.
- Rugged but refined, X-Pro balances an adventurous spirit with the comfort and practicality families expect and need from a three-row SUV.
Why Fort Smith Drivers Should Be Excited
- Families: If you need space, comfort, and flexibility, the 2027 Telluride will deliver. More room, smarter seating, and a quieter, more refined ride make it a great everyday SUV.
- Commuters & Road Trippers: The hybrid’s efficiency and range will mean fewer stops, easier long-distance drives, and savings at the pump — all without sacrificing power.
- Adventurers & Outdoor Lovers: With the X-Pro, the Telluride is no longer just a family wagon; it’s a capable SUV ready for trails, dirt roads, and weekend escapes.
