KIA’s three-row Telluride SUV has always been at the top of its game in a red-hot segment adorned with numerous capable options. It offers a rich mix of everything from value to outstanding build quality, class-leading tech, and a roomy interior that feels more luxurious than its price tag suggests.
As part of the automaker’s mid-cycle refresh, the Telluride gets an updated exterior, a revised interior, upgraded infotainment and driver’s display, and two new off-road-ready trims. If you’re seeking a mid-size family-friendly crossover to give you the best bang for your buck, don’t think twice about leasing the 2023 KIA Telluride; it’s the complete package.
Engine And Performance
Sitting on the engine bay of every 2023 KIA Telluride is a 3.8-liter naturally-aspirated V6 that cranks out 291 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque. The engine drives the Telluride’s front wheels via a decent eight-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is still available for interested shoppers. The Telluride delivers a smooth and comfortable ride, its brakes are responsive, and steering feedback is accurate. The three-row KIA has a zero-to-60mph time of 6.8 seconds. With 8.4 inches of ground clearance and up to 5500 lbs max towing capacity, the Telluride is not just a mere family hauler; it tows and tackles trails too.
Fuel Economy
Front-wheel-drive models of the latest Telluride get an EPA-rated 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. Switching to all-wheel-drive reduces the rating to 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. Unlike some key rivals, KIA doesn’t offer hybrid powertrains for the Telluride.
Interior
Typical of KIA lease deals, the Telluride’s interior boasts exceptional build quality and a simple yet attractive layout. The Telluride is spacious and practical, and there’s enough room for up to eight passengers, including a third row that can accommodate adults. Higher trims feature two 12.3-inch screens that merge to deliver a seamless display. One serves as the touchscreen infotainment display, and the other as the digital gauge cluster. Standard features include a 4.2-inch instrument display, a six-speaker audio system, dual-zone auto climate control, faux leather upholstery, etc. To deck out your Telluride, you can select from a pool of fascinating options like head-up display, a 10-speaker Harman Kardon system, Nappa leather seats, panoramic sunroof, etc.
