At 102,286 miles, this Telluride sits in a very realistic ownership range for a vehicle known for its long-term durability.

2020 Kia Telluride Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits a 3.8-liter V6 GDI engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission with Sportmatic functionality — a combination that delivers 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. For drivers navigating the Cascade foothills, Highway 12 mountain passes, or hauling a full load of passengers and cargo, this powertrain delivers confident, responsive performance. The AWD system provides genuine all-weather traction, making it an excellent match for Yakima County winters and the kind of mixed terrain Eastern Washington drivers encounter year-round. The Sportmatic shift mode gives you manual gear control when you want a more engaged driving feel — useful when descending steep grades or towing a light load.

Kia Telluride S Features and Interior

Three-Row Seating and Cargo Space

The Telluride S trim delivers a well-equipped interior that punches well above its price point. The cabin is designed to comfortably seat up to eight passengers across three rows, with genuinely usable third-row space that goes beyond the token seating found in many competitors. Adults can ride in the back without feeling like an afterthought — a distinction that sets the Telluride apart in its class.

Technology and Comfort Features

The S trim includes an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, giving you seamless smartphone connectivity for navigation and media. Dual-zone automatic climate control keeps the front cabin comfortable regardless of outside temperatures. The Telluride S also comes with a suite of active safety features under Kia's Drive Wise package, including forward collision avoidance assist, lane keeping assist, blind-spot collision warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and driver attention warning. These aren't optional add-ons — they're standard, which speaks to how seriously Kia took this vehicle from the ground up.

Exterior and Styling

The gray exterior gives this Telluride a composed, upscale presence. The Telluride's design language draws heavily from premium three-row SUVs, with a bold front fascia, wide stance, and clean body lines that have aged well since the model's debut. This is a SUV that looks newer than its year suggests.

Kia Telluride Reliability and Ownership

The Telluride earned a reputation almost immediately after its 2020 debut as one of the most reliable and well-rounded three-row SUVs on the market. It won MotorTrend's SUV of the Year and has consistently ranked at or near the top of its segment in owner satisfaction surveys. The 3.8-liter Lambda II V6 engine has a strong track record across multiple Kia and Hyundai vehicles, and the 8-speed Sportmatic transmission is smooth and durable when maintained properly. Owners consistently report low maintenance costs, comfortable long-distance driving, and a cabin that holds up well against interior wear over the years. Common maintenance items at this mileage include ensuring fluid services are current and brake components are inspected — standard stuff for any vehicle in this range. When properly cared for, this generation of Telluride is routinely driven into the 200,000-mile range without major mechanical issues.
