Which 2024 Kia Telluride Should I Buy?
MotorDonkey's proprietary vehicle data identifies every significant version of each model so that you can compare and decide. Ordered by price from low to high, here are the versions of the 2024 Kia Telluride that you need to be aware of, along with our expert analysis and recommendations.
1. 2024 Kia Telluride 3.8 Front-Wheel Drive
- Base Price: $36,190
- MPG Combined: 22
- Drive Type: Front-wheel drive
- Engine: 3.8-liter V6
- Aspiration: Naturally aspirated
- Transmission: 8-speed automatic
- Horsepower: 291
- Torque: 262 lb-ft
- Weight: 4,134 lbs
- Length: 196.9 in
- Towing Capacity: 5,000 lbs
The Telluride lineup keeps it super simple: Do you want all-wheel drive or not? We'd be inclined to get the front-drive configuration and save a little money both up front and on gas, but the Telluride's also a strong package with AWD.
2. 2024 Kia Telluride 3.8 All-Wheel Drive
- Base Price: $38,190
- MPG Combined: 20
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 3.8-liter V6
- Aspiration: Naturally aspirated
- Transmission: 8-speed automatic
- Horsepower: 291
- Torque: 262 lb-ft
- 0-60: 6.8 sec
- Weight: 4,301 lbs
- Length: 196.9 in
- Towing Capacity: 5,500 lbs
The AWD Telluride loses 2 mpg relative to the base front-drive version, but you're unlikely to notice a difference otherwise. Note that only the X-Pro models carry the full 5,500-pound tow rating; all other Tellurides are limited to 5,000 pounds.
