LX & S

LX

The LX serves as the starting point in the Telluride lineup. It has a 3.8-liter V6 engine that produces 291 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive are standard.

There are up to 87 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume available, and even with all rows in use, there's still up to 21 cubic feet of space to play with. Plus, the Telluride provides up to 178.1 cubic feet of total interior volume, meaning everyone has plenty of room to stretch out. It’s also important to note that it holds up to eight passengers.

LX comes standard with many essential technologies like a 12.3-inch touchscreen display with navigation, a 4.2-inch instrument display, Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay®, remote start, and Bluetooth® wireless technology. What’s more, it’s Wi-Fi hotspot capable, ensuring you stay connected on the roads.

There's also a suite of standard safety systems, Kia Drive Wise, which protects you and your family while traveling to your destination. Some of these include a highway driving assist, intelligent speed limit assist, driver attention warning, and safe exit assist:

Additional Kia Drive Wise Technologies:

• Blind-Spot Collision & Forward Collision Warning

The S trim includes the same fantastic features of the LX but adds a few extra goodies like a wireless phone charger, an 8-way power driver’s seat with 2-way power lumbar adjustment, and heated front seats. However, it only holds up to seven passengers.

EX & SX

EX

An 8-way power passenger’s seat with 2-way power lumbar adjustment awaits your co-pilot in the EX trim. At the same time, the EX comes standard with ventilated front seats and can be equipped with an available heated steering wheel.

EX also boosts elegance with standard leather-trimmed seats and a woodgrain interior accent. Plus, it features a sunroof for expansive views and LED interior lighting to enhance the cabin's mood.

The EX trim is also the first of the Telluride lineup to come with a smart power tailgate featuring auto close and standard all-wheel drive with center-locking and differential and snow mode.

Moreover, it provides an upgraded 12.3-inch instrument display and a Harmon Kardon® premium audio system with ten speakers.
