Kia made a big splash with the official unveiling of their new large 8-seater SUV in the United States. They are now making an even bigger impact with the announcement of the 2025 Kia Telluride pricing.

If you were wondering how much does the Kia Telluride cost, we can now reveal the actual prices for all available trim levels.

The highly popular Kia 3-row SUV comes available in 10 unique trim levels; the base LX, S, EX, EX-X-Line, SX, SX-X-Line, SX X-Pro and range-topping SX Prestige, SX Prestige X-Line, and SX Prestige X-Pro.

Regardless of trim levels, each and every Telluride is powered by a 3.8L V6 engine, which generates 291 horsepower (262 lb-ft of torque). Coupled to this highly-advanced powerplant is the 8-speed automatic transmission, which delivers power to all four wheels (FWD standard).

    Is this the New Kia-World?!
    If so NICE!!! Anyway I like the New Telluride. This time, unlike the Borrego, the timing is right on time. This is one hell of a design. It even looks better than 2020 Ford Explorer.

    Yup Jtz, this is the new “kia-world”, rebranded to theKEEA.com. The website is still in the testing phase, so I haven’t done the official announcement just yet.

    But, it’s good to have you here! 😉

    Hi Himi!!! Aka keea now!!! Keep up the good work you been keeping this blog up for at least about 15years now? We go back to the Spectra before the ceed even existed. That’s a long time and longest Kia blog I know.

    Now look at Kia now and this blog. 15 years ago, I would had laughed if you told me back then Kia was going to have an AWD car fast enough to race the Ford Shelby and Porsche and not laughable if the Kia Stinger lost to them!

    It’s me, yes! 🙂

    I’ve kept this blog up and running (lately slightly less actively) for more than 10 years. Not 15 yet, but getting close!

    Kia has come a long way indeed and they are now (finally) being recognized as one of the worlds top carmakers.

    Their “revolution” began with the launch of the Peter Schreyer -designed Kia KEE concept. And I relaunching the “kia-world” blog as the KEEA, so a similar “revolution” has happened to this blog as well.

    Hopefully, you (and other Kia fans) will like it as much as the previous one. 🙂

    I’ll try my best to keep it updated on a daily basis…

    P.S. this website is still in testing phase and will be officially launched at the beginning of March.
