If you have been shopping for a three-row SUV and keep coming back to the Kia Telluride, there is a reason for that. The Kia Telluride has quietly become one of the most respected family SUVs on the market, and the 2027 model brings more to the table than ever, including a brand new Hybrid option that changes the value conversation entirely.

At Dyer Kia Lake Wales, we serve families from Winter Haven, Haines City, Lakeland, Kissimmee, and across Central Florida. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about the 2027 Kia Telluride before you visit.


Quick Answer: What Is the 2027 Kia Telluride?

The 2027 Kia Telluride is a three-row SUV with seating for up to 8 passengers, powered by a 3.8L V6 engine producing 291 hp. It is available in front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, tows up to 5,500 lbs when properly equipped, and comes in multiple trim levels from entry-level to fully loaded premium. For 2027, Kia is also introducing the Kia Telluride Hybrid, bringing a more efficient powertrain option to the lineup for the first time.


Why Is the Kia Telluride So Popular?

The Kia Telluride launched in 2020 and immediately earned awards from nearly every major automotive publication. What made it stand out then still holds true today: it delivers a premium interior experience, genuine three-row practicality, and a price point that undercuts most of its European and domestic competition.

The interior is genuinely spacious. Kia claims the most passenger room in the Kia Telluride’s segment, and the available premium Nappa leather, second-row captain’s chairs, and panoramic sunroof give it a presence that surprises buyers who have only seen it from the outside. Central Florida families who need to move people comfortably, whether it is school pickups in Lakeland or road trips to the coast, find the Kia Telluride hard to give up once they have driven one.


What Trim Levels Does the 2027 Kia Telluride Come In?

The Kia Telluride is available in multiple configurations, from well-equipped entry-level options to fully loaded premium trims with Nappa leather seating, a panoramic sunroof, and advanced driver assistance technology. Whether you are looking for a practical family hauler or a near-luxury three-row SUV, there is a Kia Telluride trim that fits your budget and your lifestyle.

What Is New About the 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid?

This is the headline for 2027. Kia is bringing a hybrid powertrain to the Kia Telluride for the first time, giving buyers who want better fuel efficiency a genuine option without giving up the space and capability that makes the Kia Telluride what it is.

For Central Florida families who rack up miles on I-4 or the Florida Turnpike, the Kia Telluride Hybrid brings a meaningfully lower cost to operate. Dyer Kia Lake Wales is already taking interest for the Kia Telluride Hybrid. If you want to be among the first to see it in person, reach out and our team will keep you posted on availability.


How Much Can the 2027 Kia Telluride Tow?

Properly equipped with AWD, the 2027 Kia Telluride tows up to 5,500 lbs. That covers a wide range of trailers, boats, and campers that Central Florida families commonly pull. It is not a truck, but for the buyer who tows occasionally and needs a family hauler the rest of the time, the Kia Telluride handles that combination without compromise.


Is the Kia Telluride Safe?

Safety has been a consistent Kia Telluride strength. Standard features across the lineup include forward collision avoidance assist, lane keeping assist, driver attention warning, blind-spot collision warning, and rear cross-traffic collision warning. Higher trims add highway driving assist, parking distance warning, and a surround-view camera system.

The 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty and 5-year/60,000-mile basic warranty that come with every new Kia apply here as well, which gives owners long-term peace of mind that few brands in this segment match.
