The new Kia Telluride may be the perfect SUV for your family. Its spacious, upscale interior seats up to eight passengers and it's packed with tech features that help keep the kiddos entertained on long trips. Other midsize SUVs like the Honda Pilot, Mazda CX-90, and GMC Acadia also have roomy seating and enjoyable amenities, but they don't offer the full package like the Telluride. Kia of Wilmington designed the following comparisons to show you why.
Performance
You'll have all the zip you need for merging onto highways in West Chester, PA with the new Kia Telluride. Its 291-horsepower V6 engine makes 262 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission delivers smooth, linear power for urgent acceleration when necessary. The new Honda Pilot has a 285-horsepower V6 engine, and the new Mazda CX-90's six-cylinder base motor produces 280 horsepower. The GMC Acadia comes with a turbocharged 328-horsepower four-cylinder engine, but its transmission can be hesitant to downshift.
Interior Design
The new Kia Telluride has one of the nicest interiors in the class, with a modern design and plush materials. All three rows have ample head- and legroom, and outward visibility is excellent throughout the cabin. Salem, NJ drivers will like the Nappa leather upholstery, wood trim, and microsuede accents in upper-echelon Telluride models. The new Honda Pilot has a well-built cabin, but it's not as fancy as the Telluride. The new Mazda CX-90 has a sharp interior, but its third-row seats are cramped. The new GMC Acadia has a handsome cabin, but it also has tight third-row legroom.
Technology
An easy-to-use infotainment system can make slow slogs through Newark rush-hour traffic more tolerable. The new Kia Telluride has an innovative 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with crisp graphics and rapid responses. Navigation is standard, along with support for Apple Carplay and Android Auto. The new Honda Pilot's standard touchscreen is only seven inches long. The new Mazda CX-90 comes with a 10.25-inch infotainment display which is operated via a rotary knob on the center console. The new GMC Acadia comes with a 15-inch touchscreen, but it doesn't come standard with a navigation system.
