Kia America has officially announced pricing and key details for the all-new 2027 Kia Telluride ICE, marking a major evolution of its popular three-row SUV. Built in the USA and designed to deliver more power, technology, and versatility, the latest Telluride lineup starts at $39,190 MSRP for the FWD LX trim, excluding destination charges.
With seating for up to eight passengers, bold new styling, and a standard turbocharged engine, the 2027 Telluride aims to strengthen its position as one of the most competitive midsize SUVs in the segment.
2027 Kia Telluride: More Power and Standard Turbo Performance
The 2027 Kia Telluride ICE is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, delivering nearly 50 lb.-ft. more torque than the outgoing model. This improvement enhances acceleration, towing confidence, and overall drivability, making the new Telluride better suited for families, road trips, and light off-road adventures.
Front-wheel drive is standard on select trims, while AWD is available across most of the lineup, including the rugged X-Line and X-Pro variants.

- Tri-Zone automatic climate control
- 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- 19 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)

These features position the 2027 Telluride competitively against rivals such as the Toyota Grand Highlander, Honda Pilot, and Ford Explorer.
