New Kia Telluride for Sale near Princeton, NJ
With its attractive accommodations, capable performance, outstanding features, and abundant practicality, the Kia Telluride represents the benchmark for midsize three-row crossovers. But you don't have to take our word for it. Since its 2020 debut, the Telluride has earned the coveted Car and Driver 10Best award for five consecutive years (2020-2024) with 10/10 ratings each time. Princeton-area families can find the Kia Telluride for sale or lease here at Ciocca Kia in Trenton.
Performance
Despite its larger size, the Kia Telluride has no issues getting up to speed, thanks to its robust 3.8-liter V6 engine (291 horsepower, 262 pound-feet of torque) and smooth-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard. However, all-wheel drive and a center-locking differential are available in any trim (standard in SX Prestige), providing surefooted traction in difficult conditions.
While the Kia Telluride excels on the road, the X-Line and X-Pro packages are ideal for the many Princeton locations and landmarks that take you beyond the asphalt - like John Witherspoon Woods, Woodfield Reservation, and Princeton Battlefield State Park. Available EX, SX, and SX Prestige, the X-Line package includes standard all-wheel drive, a center-locking differential, enhanced traction control, and increased ground clearance. X-Pro models further elevate that capability with all-terrain tires and off-road suspension tuning.
Accommodations
The Kia Telluride's interior is stylish, inviting, and versatile. It's a pleasant place to pass the miles and perfect for shopping along downtown Nassau Street, taking the family to McCarter Theater, or carrying home produce from the Princeton Farmers Market. The cabin sports modern design details, cozy, ergonomic seats, and ample passenger space for seven or eight passengers. The Telluride reserves 21 cubic feet for gear and groceries behind the third row. When you need to increase capacity for an errand or outing, you can fold the rear seats for 46 cubic feet behind the second row and 87 cubic feet behind the first. The Telluride also offers normal and raised roof rail options, great for carrying bikes or kayaks to the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park Trail.
Numerous amenities are available to enhance your Telluride experience, including standard features like three-zone automatic climate control, leatherette upholstery, and keyless entry. Depending on the trim level or package, you can add comforts and convenience like:
- Power-adjustable front seats with heat and ventilation
- Heated and ventilated second-row seats
- Heated steering wheel
- Leather upholstery
- Dual sunroofs
- Ambient lighting
- Hands-free Smart Power Liftgate
Infotainment and Driver-Assist Technology
The Telluride comes standard with a 12.3-inch high-resolution touchscreen, providing easy access to hands-free calls, music, onboard navigation, and more. If you prefer your smartphone's familiar interface, you can integrate seamlessly via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. With the Kia Connect app, you can use your smartphone to remotely start/stop the engine, lock/unlock the doors, and even adjust the climate so that the cabin is the temperature when you're ready to go. Even more screen real estate is available in higher tiers, including a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel and a 10-inch windshield projected head-up display.
While there's no substitute for attentive driving, that doesn't mean you can't have some assistance to mitigate the unexpected and provide an extra degree of confidence and convenience. No matter what trim you choose for your Princeton travels, you'll get a comprehensive array of Kia Drive technologies like:
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection
- Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control-Curve with Stop & Go
- Blind-Spot and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Lane Keeping and Following Assist
- Highway Driving Assist
- Park Distance Warning-Reverse
