The new Kia Telluride Hybrid specs make a strong case right out of the gate: 329 horsepower, a total range of up to 637 miles, and seven-passenger seating in an SUV that marks Kia's first hybrid Telluride. While it's not the first Kia hybrid SUV, it is the first of its kind! DARCARS Kia of Lanham has this model arriving now, and whether you're researching the powertrain or comparing Kia Telluride Hybrid trims, this page is the place to learn more.

Why the Telluride Is a Good Fit for Maryland Families

Maryland roads can ask a lot from a family vehicle. Morning school runs through Lanham, the weekend drive out to Annapolis, a summer trip down to the shore – each of those looks different, but they all share the same need: a vehicle that goes the distance without draining your wallet at every gas station along the way. At a maximum EPA-estimated 35 MPG (Combined), the 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid stretches a full tank across up to 637 miles of total 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid range. That's a Lanham-to-Myrtle-Beach trip without stopping once for fuel.

Winter in Maryland is a different story. Snow and ice hit the area harder than people outside the region realize. The available all-wheel-drive system gives the Telluride real traction when conditions turn ugly. The cabin handles changing seasons well, too – optional heated second and third-row seats keep everyone comfortable on cold January pickups, while the quieter interior (thanks to an available Noise Vibration and Harshness package with triple door seals and thicker door glass) makes long summer road trips a lot more bearable for the whole car.
