A Kia Telluride SUV rental with room for the whole crew
Drive a Telluride
Three rows, seven or eight seats, and space for everyone's bags — the Telluride is built for trips you take together.
On Turo, you book a specific Kia Telluride from a local vehicle owner — the exact SUV you picked, not an "or similar" stand-in. With seven or eight seats, it's a standout Kia rental for families and groups.
The 2027 Telluride is the all-new second generation, with a turbo gas engine or, for the first time, a hybrid. Choose FWD or AWD, then pick the pickup or delivery option that fits your plans.

Hybrid power for the long haul
The 2027 Telluride swaps its old V6 for a hybrid — a turbo 2.5L paired with dual electric motors for 329 hp and 339 lb-ft. It earns up to 35 mpg combined (EX FWD) and up to 637 miles of total range — fewer gas station stops for you. A gas-only turbo 2.5L four-cylinder with 274 hp is on the menu, too.
Room for eight and their bags
The Telluride seats seven or eight across three rows, so nobody gets left behind for the weekend. Check the listing to see which layout your Telluride has — the third row comes along either way, ready for kids, friends, or grandparents.
Cargo space flexes with your plans. You get 22.3 cubic feet behind the third row, so every seat can stay filled while the bags ride in back. Fold the third row for 48.7 cubic feet, or drop both rear rows for 89.3 (gas model figures) — plenty for coolers, strollers, and souvenirs.
Tech that rides along
Dual 12.3-inch screens anchor the dash, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto put your maps and playlists up front — no cable required. Over-the-air updates keep the software current, so the Telluride you book stays up to date without a dealer visit.
Highway Driving Assist comes standard, giving you a helping hand on long interstate stretches. Some trims add Highway Driving Assist 2 with assisted lane changes and Blind-Spot View Monitor for extra confidence before you merge. Neither system is hands-free, so keep your hands on the wheel and treat the tech as backup.
Stand out with a Telluride
The Telluride shines when the whole crew — and all their gear — rides together. Book one for family road trips, group getaways, ski-season mountain drives, or paved national-park routes, and you'll have room to spare. It's also a smart pick for airport runs with a full load of luggage, and a standout three-row SUV rental on Turo.
Top Telluride features
Designed for American roads
Three things set the Telluride apart: American-made heritage, real towing capability, and a bigger second generation.
The Telluride was the first Kia designed specifically for the US market. It's built here, too, at Kia's plant in West Point, Georgia, so your road trip starts with an SUV made for the roads you're driving.
The first generation made a big-time debut, earning both World Car of the Year and MotorTrend SUV of the Year honors. The 2027 model carries that track record into an all-new second generation, with a hybrid option and a longer body. When you book one on Turo, you're driving the latest chapter of a family SUV that won over critics from the start.
Towing for weekend gear
When properly equipped, the gas Telluride tows up to 5,000 pounds, and the hybrid tows up to 4,500 pounds. That's enough muscle for a small trailer, a small boat, or a compact camper — so your weekend gear comes along.
Towing depends on the specific vehicle and how its local vehicle owner has equipped it. Check the listing for a hitch and any towing guidelines before you book, and confirm the details match your load. For a heavier haul, look for a gas Telluride with the higher towing rating.
A bigger, bolder second generation
The 2027 Telluride stretches to 199.2 inches long, 2.3 inches longer than the previous generation. The wheelbase grows by 2.7 inches, too, and the upright, boxy design gives it a confident stance in any parking lot or driveway.
Step up to the SX-Prestige trim and you'll find upscale touches that make long drives easier. A digital rearview mirror gives you a clear view out back, even when the third row is full of passengers and bags. A head-up display keeps key driving info in your line of sight, so your eyes stay on the road ahead.

Telluride driving tips
The Telluride is nearly 200 inches long, so plan your parking before you pull into a tight parking garage. On long highway stretches, use Highway Driving Assist to ease the load, but keep your hands on the wheel.
Need more cargo room? Fold the third row and your bags get the space. Budget fuel by powertrain, too: the hybrid AWD is rated at 31 mpg combined, while the gas AWD is rated at 20 mpg combined.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
