All-new 2027 Kia Telluride preview: X-Pro, larger stance, refined interior

The Kia Telluride visually nods to the scenic Colorado town that lends it its name, channeling the brand’s Opposites United design philosophy.

The new model makes a statement with its substantial proportions, extended wheelbase, increased off-road capability, and reworked lighting that features distinctive vertical LED elements. The signatures give it a cleaner, more modern energy without trying too hard.

Inside, the new-generation Kia Telluride is thoroughly considered around passenger comfort and impresses with premium-grade fit and finish. The Grandioso theme underscores a sense of luxury and exclusivity in the materials, from high-quality leather upholstery to advanced infotainment and multimedia features designed to keep long journeys easy. In feel, it leans toward quiet sophistication rather than flash, with usability kept front and center.

The Telluride X-Pro deserves a closer look for those who venture off the beaten path. This variant adds matte-black exterior accents, a strengthened chassis, and extra ground clearance, helping it clear obstacles with more confidence. The spec suggests intent that goes beyond merely looking adventurous.

The all-new 2027 Telluride will make its official debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show at the end of this month, with a broad range of trims including the X-Pro. The second-generation SUV is expected to reach showrooms in the first quarter of 2026.
