A few tweaks here and there only serve to broaden its appeal, and in doing so, secure its position as one of the very best three-row crossovers out there. For its second model year, the 2021 Telluride is largely the same great package. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Telluride lives up to the hype.
There wasn’t a rock big enough to hide from all that. It even won North American crossover of the year. Since Kia’s larger three-row SUV dropped for the 2020 model year, every corner of the automotive world has heaped praise on the Telluride. There are times when it’s simply impossible to pull off though, and for me, driving the Kia Telluride is one of those times. It can color your own eventual review, after all. The 8-speed automatic is an excellent match, serving up smooth and easy shifts.In this job, you try to avoid hearing others’ thoughts on new models. It revs smoothly, and pulls the Telluride around confidently, and in Sport Mode, quite quickly too. Under that long hood is Kia’s 3.8-liter V6, and it’s a sweetheart, pumping out 291 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft. Our favorite is the overhead 360 view that makes parking in tight spaces or smaller garages a snap.Ī powerful Harman/Kardon surround sound system fills the big cabin with big sound, while luxuries like Tri-zone climate control, memory driver’ seat and wireless charging make every day easier. For display purposes, the big screen can be broken into three slices so you have plenty of info. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are along for the ride, naturally. There’s also a generous 10.3-inch touchscreen display that works with Kia’s excellent UVO system. It has a great party trick, too – signal for a left or right turn, and a camera in the outside mirror projects an image on the display, making it easy to maneuver the big beasty. Getting information suffers no such issues, there are large clear analog gauges with a spacious 7-inch TFT screen for info.
