Big families and long drives usually mean frequent fuel stops, but the newest Telluride changes that math. At Ray Skillman Kia West, we have the Kia Telluride Hybrid for sale near Whitestown, Indiana, and our team is ready to show you how this turbocharged three-row SUV fits a busy Hoosier schedule.
Kia rebuilt the Telluride from the ground up, and the hybrid version is the headline act. You still get the bold, boxy stance people loved in the original, along with three full rows of seating and a cabin that feels roomy from front to back.
Under the hood, a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder teams up with electric motors and a 1.65-kWh lithium-ion battery. Together they produce 329 combined horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque, a noticeable jump over the previous-generation Telluride. A six-speed automatic handles the shifting, and all-wheel drive is available on the EX and standard on the X-Line and SX Prestige trims.
Efficiency is where this SUV really shines. The EX with front-wheel drive earns an EPA-estimated 34 city, 36 highway, and 35 combined MPG, with up to 637 miles of total driving range on a full tank. All-wheel-drive hybrid trims are rated at 30 city, 32 highway, and 31 combined MPG. That kind of range makes a weekend run up I-65 feel easy, and you still get up to 4,500 pounds of towing capacity when properly equipped for a small camper or a fishing boat.
Every Telluride Hybrid comes well equipped, starting with a smart power liftgate, ventilated front seats, and a power sunroof on the EX. Moving to the SX adds dual sunroofs, a Meridian 14-speaker audio system, second-row captain’s chairs, and a 360-degree Surround View Monitor. X-Line models bring standard all-wheel drive with Terrain Mode, 21-inch wheels, high-utility roof rails, and LED projector fog lights.

Stay Mode is one of our favorite hybrid-only features. It can run the climate control, cabin lights, and audio for up to an hour, or until the battery reaches about 20 percent, without starting the engine. Electrification Vehicle Motion Control (e-VMC) also comes standard, using subtle motor and brake inputs to keep the SUV composed through curves.
Up front, available dual 12.3-inch panoramic displays handle navigation and media, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard. Dual wireless charging pads keep two phones topped off, and a generative AI voice assistant answers to “Hey, Kia.” Cargo space measures 21.3 cubic feet behind the third row, 47.7 cubic feet behind the second row, and 88.3 cubic feet with both rows folded. Schedule a test drive and see how the cargo area handles your gear.
Kia equips the Telluride with 10 standard airbags, including a new front-row center airbag. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 with intersection detection, Lane Following Assist 2, and Blind-Spot Collision Warning help you keep tabs on traffic during rush-hour merges.
Families will appreciate Rear Occupant Alert, which uses an in-cabin radar sensor to remind you about passengers in back, plus Safe Exit Assist for kids hopping out curbside. Available Highway Driving Assist 2 and Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control with Stop and Go take some strain out of long highway stretches, especially on a summer drive to Eagle Creek Park with a full crew on board.
Strong power, impressive efficiency, and three usable rows make this one of the most well-rounded family SUVs on the road. If you’ve been waiting to find a Kia Telluride Hybrid for sale that handles daily errands and weekend road trips equally well, this is the one to test drive.
