There are numerous reasons why you should get the 2022 Kia Telluride. The three-row SUV boasts a jaw-dropping exterior design, an upscale cabin, top-tier technology, and a satisfying driving experience. Here are some of the most important details about this new car.

1. Exterior and Interior

2022 Kia Telluride

Your ’22 Telluride is offered in S, LX, EX, and SX trims. Its length, height, and overall width without mirrors measure 196.9, 68.9, and 78.3 inches, respectively. Its honeycomb grille, bordered by satin chrome and framed by LED lights, makes the front fascia more attractive than ever. You also have different exterior color options to choose from, including ebony black, wolf gray, dark moss, black copper, gravity gray, and more.

It seats eight passengers in its standard configuration and seven if you wish for the available second-row captain’s chairs. Interior comfort features include leather upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, an overhead console with storage, three-zone climate control, and a power rear seat entry.

2. Performance

The ’22 Telluride will provide all the power necessary for your daily commutes. It handles well and features controlled body motion around turns. Under the hood, each variant uses a 3.8-liter naturally aspirated V6 that transmits power to an 8-speed automatic transmission to deliver 291 horsepower and 262 lb. feet of torque.

Front-wheel drive is the default drivetrain, while all-wheel drive is available on each trim level. It gets a fuel economy rate of 20 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway when using the FWD. AWD models get 19/24 mpg city/highway. When adequately equipped, the Telluride can tow a maximum of 5,000 pounds.

3. Infotainment and Connectivity

The 2022 Telluride works hard to keep you well-entertained while driving. All trims offer a 10.25-inch display that connects with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, satellite radio, a 6-speaker sound system, voice recognition navigation, and Bluetooth connectivity.

Infotainment features offered as upgrades are wireless gadget charging, a 7-inch instrument digital cluster, a rear seat infotainment system, and a Harman Kardon surround-sound system with ten speakers.

4. Safety Features

Like all Kia vehicles, the new Telluride comes with a plethora of excellent safety features that will make you feel secure and supported while on the road. They include highway assist, forward collision warning, blind spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, driver attention monitoring, and pedestrian and cyclist detection. The safe exit assist informs you of approaching cars before exiting the vehicle.

The rear seat alert will remind you to check if there are occupants remaining in the back seat before you exit the vehicle. Available safety features are a blind-spot camera, 360-degree surround view camera, and front parking sensors.

The all-new Telluride offers a quiet interior even at highway speeds and is comfortable in all three rows, no matter the distance. Visit Coughlin Kia of Lancaster today to choose your favorite Kia model!
