Kia Telluride
The Kia Telluride skips the 2026 model year as dealers continue to sell the last remaining 2025 models. The second generation debuts as a 2027 model and boasts a more robust appearance, especially in X-Pro trim. The 3.8-litre V6 is dropped in favour of a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine producing 274 horsepower. The Telluride Hybrid will use this same engine along with two electric motors to generate 329 horsepower. Towing capacities are rated at 5,000 lbs and 4,500 lbs, respectively.
