Kia Telluride: Luxury-SUV goods, minus the price
The Car Connection’s editors chose the Kia Telluride from a competitive field of nominees. Contenders were new or fully redesigned models that achieved top scores in The Car Connection’s unique “TCC Rating” system, while adhering to a $50,000 base-price limit.
The 10-point TCC Rating rolls up scores given to each vehicle across six categories including safety, comfort and utility, fuel economy, performance, technology and styling.
“The Kia Telluride does everything a family vehicle should do well—and it does it with fantastic style,” said Marty Padgett, editorial director of The Car Connection. “It’s attractive, trimmed with all the latest safety features and tech conveniences. It delivers luxury-SUV attitude without the luxury-SUV price tag.”
