Kia Telluride Spied in South Korea

Kia's large SUV continues its testing program, at this time it was caught in South Korea with less camouflage, which helps us understand that, as we said, Kia's Telluride will follow many of the design cues we saw in the concept.

Kia will try to turn the same beefy exterior design we saw on the concept car into a production car, and that will make it radically different from any other Kia currently on offer.

Key aspects of the concept's design included its boxy shape, rectangular grille, beefy arches and chromed window pieces.

The similarities between concept and production will continue, as we see in the spy photos, on the line of chrome doors, as we found in these new spy photos, on the hind legs.

To ensure the car appeals to SUV buyers on a slightly smaller budget, a range of cheaper trim levels and a simple and intuitive infotainment system are also offered.

The same 3.3 Twin Turbo engine and 8-speed automatic transmission will be available.
