Premium Comfort in the 2025 Kia Telluride

The LX has a standard front-wheel drivetrain that supports the eco-friendly efficiency of the model. You can expect the LX to get 20 MPG in urban areas and 26 MPG on the freeway. This model comes with an impressive 3.8-liter V6 motor, with an output of 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. The LX can tow up to 5,000 lbs with ease with this powerful V6 motor. 

The base Telluride comes with key engineering features, such as Torque Vectoring Cornering Control, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and Drive Mode Select. The Torque Vectoring Cornering Control system works by tracking the steering input to detect understeering and enhance cornering stability. The standard selectable drive modes for the LX FWD are Eco, Smart, Sport, and Comfort. 

Cabin Space

The Telluride LX is spacious even for tall adult passengers because of its ample legroom. The first row offers 41.4 inches of legroom, with 42.4 inches in the second row and 31.4 inches in the third row. The cargo space behind the third-row seat is 21 cubic feet, which is enough space for moderate luggage and gear. With the back seats folded, this SUV has a maximum cargo area of 87 cubic feet. 

This eight-passenger model has rear seats that can easily be configured to fit more cargo on demand. You can fold or slide the second-row 60/40 bench seat at the touch of a button, which is located in the cargo area for your convenience. The third-row bench seat also has a 60/40 split to customize your cargo space. A dual-level cargo floor with a hidden cargo area is standard for the LX trim. 

Comfort Features

The LX has a dual-zone climate control system so each front-row passenger can adjust the output of the air vent. Rear-seat riders can use an auxiliary automatic climate control system to independently adjust air temperature and fan speed. The climate control system has an Auto De-Fog feature that can detect front windshield moisture and automatically activate the defogger to clear away fog.

The Telluride LX is also equipped with Quiet Mode, a system that focuses the audio system to the front-row seats to avoid disturbing second and third-row riders. The rear window and cargo window privacy glass also create a peaceful travel environment for backseat passengers. 

The 2025 Telluride is a phenomenal full-size SUV full of premium technology and customizable cargo space so passengers can ride in comfort. Book a test drive at DeMontrond Kia in Houston, TX.
