2024 Kia Telluride Crowned as the Best 3-Row Midsize SUV to Buy

The Kia Telluride has been crowned the winner of the 3-Row Midsize SUV Best Buy Award for five years in a row; this is impressive for a vehicle that has only been around for five years. This undeniable accomplishment shows that the Kia Telluride has unwavering excellence, unparalleled performance, and an unbeatable value proposition, making it the obvious choice for drivers looking for a top-tier SUV.

The 2024 Kia Telluride Is Exceptional 

The Telluride is a striking midsize SUV with three rows of seating that can comfortably fit up to eight passengers. The LX base trim is far from basic, featuring a stylish dual-display setup that combines the driver information and infotainment touchscreen into one unit, creating a sleek and modern dashboard that dominates the cabin. The higher trims come with a pair of captain’s chairs in the second row, ensuring a luxurious and comfortable ride for all passengers while still allowing for easy access to the third row. The unique stadium seating arrangement, with each row slightly higher than the one in front, creates an open and spacious feel throughout the cabin.

Premium features are abundant in the Telluride, with higher trims boasting fine Nappa leather seating surfaces, ambient cabin lighting, and a Harman Kardon surround-sound system that delivers crystal-clear audio for a truly immersive experience. The Telluride is designed with families in mind, with features like Driver Talk that transmits the driver’s voice through the speakers, even to those in the third row. The audio system’s Quiet Mode ensures a peaceful ride for napping passengers by using only the front speakers.

The Telluride’s standard navigation system is equipped with a Connected Routing function that plans routes based on real-time traffic information. The digital key allows for convenient access with a smartphone or smartwatch, and the Telluride has at least five USB ports in every version, making it easy to stay connected while on the go. A rear-seat entertainment system is also available as an option, ensuring that passengers of all ages stay entertained during long journeys.

The Telluride’s safety features are comprehensive. Every new SUV comes standard with a range of driver assistance systems such as forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, pedestrian/cyclist detection, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and rear parking sensors. The junction turning assistance feature is especially useful in low-visibility situations, such as turning left at an intersection. The Telluride has also undergone rigorous crash tests and has received a maximum 5-star overall score from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and has been named a Top Safety Pick+ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), making it a reliable and safe choice for families.
