New-Gen Telluride - Exterior Design

The new Telluride features a bold and strong design. The front end has a wide hood and vertical headlights, with a high-gloss grille giving it a strong look. The vehicle has clean lines and modern lighting that give it a futuristic appearance. The side of the Telluride has smooth body contours and sharp creases in the fenders that create an athletic stance. The tapered roofline and flush door handles add to its sleek look.

At the rear, the SUV has a strong presence, with a rising beltline and broad fenders. The sculpted bumper adds to its rugged design.

X-Pro Trim - Built for Adventure

The X-Pro trim of the Telluride has a tougher, more rugged look. It includes blacked-out wheel arches, side mirrors, and trim. Raised roof rails make the X-Pro more practical for carrying gear. The front grille and lower bumper have a more aggressive design. The X-Pro also includes all-terrain tyres, 9.1 inches of ground clearance, and front and rear recovery hooks, making it suitable for off-road use.

Interior Features of the New Telluride

Inside, the 2026 Telluride offers a spacious and comfortable cabin. The design focuses on creating a welcoming atmosphere with a wide layout. The interior features natural textures like wood accents and metal details for a premium feel. The cabin also has soft lighting under the center console to add to the atmosphere.

The new Telluride is longer and taller, which improves access to the second and third rows and provides more headroom. The rear seats have a new functional table, and the cargo area includes a folding luggage table with integrated ruler markings and a removable partition, making it more versatile for carrying items.

Colour Choices (Exterior/Interior)

The exterior of the 2026 Telluride also comes in new colours, including Black Jade Green and Terrain Brown, available in glossy and matte finishes.

The interior comes in several colour options, including new combinations like Deep Navy with Tuscan Umber and Blackberry with Sand Beige. The X-Pro models offer more neutral tones like all-black, deep khaki, and saddle brown.
