Looking for a Kia Telluride near Brownsburg, Indiana? At Ray Skillman Kia West, we have one of Kia’s most popular three-row SUVs ready for your next family road trip, weekend getaway, or daily school run. The Telluride combines bold style, real towing capability, and the kind of cabin space that makes long drives feel shorter.
Whether you’re heading out toward Lucas Oil Raceway, hauling the kids to a soccer tournament, or making a longer run on I-74, the Telluride proves itself in the kinds of real-world driving Hendricks County families do every day. With three rows of seats, generous cargo room, and modern tech that keeps everyone connected, it’s a smart pick for growing families and active crews.
The Telluride gives you two strong choices under the hood. The standard 2.5L turbocharged gas engine produces 274 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque, which translates to confident merging onto I-465 and smooth highway cruising on longer trips. Towing capability reaches up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped, which is enough for most mid-size boats, small campers, and utility trailers.
For drivers who want better fuel economy, the available 2.5L turbo hybrid produces a combined 329 horsepower and delivers an EPA-estimated 35 MPG on the EX FWD model. That means fewer stops at the pump and a quieter ride around town. The hybrid still tows up to 4,500 pounds, so you don’t have to give up much capability to gain efficiency.
With three rows of seating, the Telluride works as a true 8-seater SUV when you choose the bench second row. Captain’s chairs are also available on certain trims if you prefer seven-passenger seating with a center walkthrough to the third row. If you’ve been comparing 8-passenger vehicles, you’ll find the Telluride stands out with 43 inches of second-row legroom and a third row that remains usable for adults on shorter trips.
Cargo space is generous too. There’s 22.3 cubic feet behind the third row, 48.7 cubic feet behind the second, and up to 89.3 cubic feet when both rear rows fold flat. That kind of flexibility makes the Telluride one of the easier full-size SUVs to live with day-to-day.
For families near Brownsburg, Indiana, the Telluride checks a lot of boxes. School drop-offs, weekend trips toward Brown County, and long highway hauls all become easier with this much cabin room and capability. Available all-wheel drive helps when winter weather rolls through Hendricks County, and the X-Pro trim adds 9.1 inches of ground clearance with all-terrain tires for drivers who want to head off the pavement. As an 8-seat SUV, the Telluride works just as well for big families as it does for crews who regularly haul friends, gear, and pets.
Inside, available dual 12.3-inch panoramic displays put a digital gauge cluster and infotainment screen side by side for a clean, modern look. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, so connecting your phone takes just a few seconds. An available Meridian 14-speaker audio system keeps everyone happy on long drives, and dual wireless charging pads up front mean no fumbling for cables.
Safety tech is part of the package across every trim. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Following Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Warning, and 10 standard airbags give you confidence on busy commutes and long road trips alike. Higher trims add Highway Driving Assist and a 360-degree Surround View Monitor that makes tight parking lots much easier to manage.
