Kia Showcases Massive 2020 Telluride SUV
Kia debuted its biggest-ever vehicle last week for the media, handing the SUV off to testers for exciting drives on and off the road in rugged western Colorado.
With its commanding size and power, roomy interior, and advanced technologies, the made-in-America 2020 Kia Telluride is also poised to make a big impression on everyone else as it arrives at dealerships this spring.
The Telluride is powered by a 3.8-liter V6 GDI engine that cranks out 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and tows up to 5,000 pounds. It’s available with active on-demand AWD, a self-leveling rear suspension, and up to six drive modes for tackling tough terrain.
