The Telluride features six USB charging ports, with two in-seat ports available in every row.

Both rugged and welcoming, the Telluride’s interior features sturdy trim elements and brushed metal and matte-finished wood accents that provide a subtle yet tasteful contrast to the soft Nappa leather upholstery. Indirect mood lighting from under the dash trim adds a relaxed ambience after dark.

The Electronic Parking Brake features Auto Hold, operated by a button on the center console behind the gear selector. The hold feature is especially useful when waiting on a steep incline. It will prevent the vehicle from rolling back as you wait to proceed.

The Harman Kardon premium sound system transforms a ride in the spacious Telluride cabin into an auditory adventure. Its external amplifier drives 12 precisely positioned speakers, including an OCS-type subwoofer that generates bass output markedly superior to that of a conventional enclosed subwoofer.

Rugged capability. That's what we all expect from a full-size SUV. The all-new Kia Telluride is an all-access, all-weather SUV that seats up to eight in roomy luxury. It's also smart about navigating all types of road and weather conditions. Dial into the Snow mode and upshifts will come sooner, so your wheels don't spin out. Or get more rear-wheel kick with Sport mode. In day-to-day driving or out in the elements, the Telluride masters the terrain. If you're ready to go big, read on.

The audio system's in-car Driver Talk intercom lets the driver speak with back-seat passengers without the need to shout or turn around. To facilitate naps or discussions in back rows, Quiet Mode switches the audio system from full-interior sound to a reduced-volume, front-seat only mode.

Telluride makes it easy to get in and out of the third row of seats. Access is particularly manageable thanks to reclining, secondrow captain's chair seats (shown) that fold and slide forward at the push of a button. In fact, both rear seat rows fold flat, and even recline, together or split, at the touch of a button. There are also ISOFIX anchors for up to two child seats.

To allow the driver to see key information while continuously watching the road, HUD projects an image on the windshield itself. Equivalent to a 9.7-inch screen, it shows vehicle speed, driving and safety alerts, and navigation cues, with LCD sharpness.

When the risk of a frontal collision is detected, the driver is warned and, if necessary, FCA with Pedestrian Detection may actually apply the brakes to help reduce or prevent damage or injury from a possible impact.

A center SURROUND VIEW MONITOR (SVM) offers a zoomable overhead representation of your vehicle and its surroundings.
