2022 Kia Telluride

The 2022 Kia Telluride EX delivers a driving experience defined by its composed chassis, responsive steering, and smooth power delivery. The moment you settle into the black leather seat and grip the leather-wrapped steering wheel, the SUV communicates a sense of control and connection uncommon in its class. This SUV is tailored for drivers who care about how their vehicle feels on the road and want more than just basic transportation. Enthusiasts who appreciate nuanced steering feedback, a settled ride, and composed handling-especially through corners or during quick lane changes-will find the Telluride EX especially rewarding. The four-wheel independent suspension ensures the cabin remains calm even over broken pavement, making it ideal for St. Louis commuters facing changing road conditions or for families seeking a dynamic yet plush ride for road trips or daily errands alike. Every drive in the Telluride EX feels deliberate and satisfying thanks to the well-tuned V6 engine and precise throttle mapping. The 8-speed automatic offers quick, unobtrusive shifts, keeping the engine in its sweet spot for brisk merges or smooth cruising. Speed-sensing steering delivers just the right weight and feedback, communicating road texture while maintaining a relaxed feel at highway speeds. The suspension strikes a rare balance-soaking up imperfections without sacrificing body control-while brakes are progressive and confidence-inspiring, allowing for smooth stops and reassuring control in traffic or on winding roads. Active safety features enhance the experience without muting driver involvement. Electronic Stability Control subtly supports composure in sudden maneuvers, allowing the driver to maintain their chosen line while providing a safety net in adverse conditions. Traction control and four-wheel disc brakes with ABS ensure steady stops and stable control on slick surfaces. The 911 Connect emergency communication system adds peace of mind, while lane-focused features like blind spot monitoring (if present) would further bolster confidence behind the wheel. Importantly, these systems aid rather than intrude, leaving the driver in command. The Telluride EX comes equipped to satisfy both spirited and practical needs. The EX Premium Package adds upscale touches to the cabin, including heated and ventilated front bucket seats, a power moonroof that brightens the interior, and a navigation system for stress-free route planning. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration make it easy to stay connected, while the dual-zone climate control and rear air conditioning keep all three rows comfortable. Among competitors, the Telluride EX stands out for its harmonious blend of driving enjoyment and family-friendly versatility. Compared to the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander, the Telluride feels more composed during spirited driving and offers a richer suite of standard comfort features. Curious about ride quality on long trips? The Telluride's suspension tuning and premium seating deliver hours of fatigue-free comfort, even with a full cabin. Wondering about highway composure? The independent suspension and speed-sensing steering allow the SUV to track confidently at speed, minimizing driver effort. How does the warranty compare? The factory powertrain warranty covers 5 years or 60,000 miles, providing reassurance for years of ownership.
