Kia America has announced the pricing and performance specifications for the 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid (HEV). This innovative model combines the robust charisma of the renowned Telluride with a fuel-efficient turbocharged engine, establishing a new benchmark for three-row SUVs.
Performance and Efficiency: The Turbo Hybrid Engine
The defining attribute of the 2027 Telluride HEV is its engine. Moving away from the conventional V6, the Hybrid variant pairs a 2.5-liter turbo engine with a 1.65-kWh lithium-ion battery and electric motors.
The outcomes are impressive:
- Combined Horsepower: 329 hp (an augmentation of 38 hp compared to the previous gas variant).
- Combined Torque: 339 lb.-ft. (a remarkable 77 lb.-ft. rise).
- Fuel Economy: An EPA-estimated 35 mpg combined (for the EX FWD trim).
- Total Range: As much as 637 miles on a single tank.
Power is managed by a sophisticated 6-speed automatic transmission. To ensure a seamless driving experience, Kia includes electric-Vehicle Motion Control (e-VMC) as standard, boosting stability and handling for a more tranquil ride.
