2024 Kia Telluride SX X-Line

AWD!!! ONLY 15,700 MILES!!! LOADED!!! NAVIGATION!!! REVERSE PARKING ASSISTANCE WARNING!!! NAVIGATION!!! HARMON KARDON PREMIUM SOUND!!! AND MORE!!! PLEASE HURRY!!! PRICED TO SELL!!!Last year, the Telluride underwent the most significant refresh in its short history, with updated styling, rugged new trim levels and enhanced driver assist features. 2024 brings a few more styling tweaks, though none of last year's major design updates have been undone.That's likely to hold true for the 2024 Telluride as well. But as part of your car shopping, you might want to look at the related Hyundai Palisade. It shares a lot of the Kia's underpinnings but exudes a more luxurious personality. Other worthy alternatives include the all-new Mazda CX-90 and recently redesigned Honda Pilot. Read our Expert Rating below to get our full report on the Telluride's comfort, cargo space and more.How does the Telluride drive? The Telluride is a satisfying SUV to drive. Its V6 engine is responsive, though outright acceleration is ultimately average for a three-row SUV. In Edmunds' testing, our Telluride test vehicle sprinted from 0 to 60 mph in 7.5 seconds, which is similar to the acceleration of the Honda Pilot and Hyundai Palisade. The brakes are strong and can bring the Telluride to a halt in a hurry. We recorded consistent stops from 60 mph in 123 feet, which is a bit shorter than average for the class. The brakes are also easy to control for consistent and smooth stops on the street.The steering is light at parking lot speeds and weights up naturally in turns. The Telluride is stable when going around turns and doesn't exhibit excessive body roll. We also like that the engine's fuel-saving stop-start feature works smoothly and quietly.
