The 2027 Kia Telluride has been completely redesigned, and the biggest news for this model year is the introduction of a hybrid variation. Both the standard Telluride and the Telluride Hybrid are spacious three-row SUVs that deliver exceptional versatility for families throughout State College, PA. Shoppers from Bellefonte will appreciate the enhanced capabilities that both models offer in our new inventory at Lion Country Kia. Let's explore how these two outstanding SUVs compare across key categories.
Performance and Powertrain Comparison
The gas-powered 2027 Kia Telluride features a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 274 horsepower. This capable powertrain is paired with a smooth eight-speed automatic transmission that delivers confident acceleration and responsive performance.
Meanwhile, the hybrid model takes things to another level with a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine working along with two electric motors. This advanced hybrid system generates a combined 329 horsepower, providing drivers with impressive power when they need it most.
Drivers from Phillipsburg will appreciate knowing that all-wheel drive (AWD) is available for both powertrains, providing confident handling in a variety of weather conditions and road surfaces.
Fuel Economy and Towing Capabilities
When it comes to efficiency, both Telluride models deliver impressive numbers. The gas-powered version achieves up to 26 MPG on the highway, making it a sensible choice for daily driving and longer road trips. However, the hybrid truly shines in this category, delivering up to 36 highway MPG for exceptional fuel savings.
In terms of towing capacity, the standard Telluride can pull up to 5,000 pounds, while the hybrid offers a maximum towing capacity of 4,500 pounds. Both figures make these SUVs excellent choices for families who enjoy camping, boating, or other recreational activities.
Exterior and Interior Design
Both the 2027 Kia Telluride and Telluride Hybrid share the same attractive exterior design that's made this nameplate so popular. The bold, commanding presence looks attractive in either configuration. Inside, passengers enjoy comfortable, well-appointed interiors with premium materials throughout. Families from Altoona will value the generous three-row seating that accommodates everyone on board.
Technology
Both models come equipped with a large 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system that serves as the command center for all connectivity needs.
