All-New Kia Telluride Caught Standing Next to Hyundai Palisade - Reveal on 20th November

We informed you earlier that the next-gen Kia Telluride full-size SUV will make its public debut at the LA Motor Show 2025. The SUV will be officially revealed on November 2025. For people not in the know, the Telluride SUV shares platform and powertrains with the Hyundai Palisade. In fact, the new-gen Kia Telluride has been spotted standing next to the existing Palisade. 

The spy images confirm that the new-gen Kia Telluride will come with all-new design and interiors along with new powertrain choices. Furthermore, the new SUV appears largely identical to its Korean cousin, when it comes to size. However, the Telluride will carry Kia’s signature looks.

It is reported that the all-new Kia Telluride will grow in size and is expected to be 65mm longer than its predecessor. The wheelbase is likely to be increased by 70mm, which should help Kia engineers to carve out more space inside the cabin. 

The spy images reveal that the new Telluride design is inspired by the Kia EV9. It has LED headlamps similar to those found in the EV9. Moreover, all the body panels are newly designed. The SUV retains the Kia’s Digital Tiger Face, and wider air-dam that houses radar sensors for ADAS, and new LED fog lamps. The new Telluride gets boxier design, featuring smooth body panels, large windows and raked roof. 

The cabin will receive all-new design with dashboard dominated by a twin 12.3-inch curved screens. There will be more premium materials all-around the cabin, while the fit and finish will be significantly improved. The new SUV will continue to be offered with the more rugged X-Line and X-Pro models. These versions will have increased ground clearance, all-terrain tires, electronic limited-slip rear differentials and improved approach and departure angles. 

Not just the platform, the new Kia Telluride will have a hybrid powertrain similar to the one offered with the Palisade SUV/ The hybrid setup will have a 2.5L, 4-cylinder engine with two electric motors, and the combined power and torque output stands at 329hp and 460Nm, respectively. The non-hybrid model will be equipped with a 3.5L, V6 engine producing 287bhp and 352Nm.
