The KIA Telluride 2023 has a powerful character thanks to the redesigned front grille and redesigned front bumper. Kia’s cars have witnessed a significant improvement in quality and design.
The Chrome or Black Accents Depending On the Trim
When you look at the Kia Telluride, you’ll notice the chrome accents surrounding the black grille and the windows and coloring the lower bumper and the lower side of the doors. These accents may be black in higher trims that are more prepared for harsh usage, and these black accents make the looks sportier; they include the plastic protecting the bumpers, the windows surroundings, the mirror caps, the grille’s surrounding, and the wheels. These exterior enhancements come with the X-line package for off-road.
Off-road Capabilities
First, you have to check with the dealer whether some of the features mentioned are currently available.
The Kia Telluride 2023 comes with a standard 295hp V6, with an improved towing capacity that can reach 2491kg depending on the trim (check the towing capacity of the trim you’re buying). The car is also equipped with a stability assist system that can help improve the stability while towing; add to that a heady-duty cooling available.
Note that these off-road capabilities may be available with a specific trim. However, if you’re buying the Telluride for you and your family, not willing to give it the harsh treatment, only driving it for daily use, pleasure, and some family trips that require standard off-road capabilities, you can go for other cheaper trims.
