The Kia Telluride maintains its bold style and adds the new Kia logo for 2022!

The 2022 Kia Telluride continues to separate itself from competitors with its strong exterior styling, unexpected interior, and unmatched affordability! Along with an array of standard safety features, the Telluride features a high-tech infotainment system and optional luxury features such as ventilated rear seats and ambient lighting.

What’s New for 2022?

For the new model year, the Telluride will sport the all-new Kia logo on its slightly restyled grille, rear liftgate, and steering wheel. The LX and S trims now get more standard features including a larger 10.3-inch touchscreen, automatic temperature control, and semi-autonomous highway-driving assist.

The inside of the Telluride is upscale and comfortable with attractive materials and desirable features. The top SX trim offers all of the fanciest options including driver’s seat memory settings, a head-up display, heated and ventilated rear seats, and Nappa Leather upholstery.

The spacious cabin offers room for up to eight passengers or seven with the optional second row captains chairs. Also available is a 10-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, a 110-volt power inverter, and wireless smartphone charging. With Driver Talk, which is available on the EX and SX trims, the driver’s voice is amplified through speakers in the back two rows to better communicate with any inattentive or unruly passengers.

Engine & Drive Performance

Under the hood of every Telluride is a naturally aspirated V-6 that makes 291 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. Its engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission that feeds the front wheels in the standard format—all-wheel drive is also optional across the board.

The EPA estimates the front-drive version is the thriftiest, with ratings of 20 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway. All-wheel-drive models drop to 19 mpg city and 24 mpg highway.
