Kia Telluride
Originally introduced for 2020, the Kia Telluride is a three-row midsize SUV that receives a mid-cycle update for 2023. This includes redesigned headlights, bumpers and grille plus new body colours and wheels. The lineup expands with the addition of more rugged X-Line and X-Pro models. Inside, dual 12.3-inch displays are available in a layout reminiscent of the EV6. There are no changes under the hood, though. The 3.8-litre V6 sticks around with 291 horsepower.
