2020 Kia Telluride Engine Specs and Performance Features

After a sneak peek earlier this year, we finally have the official debut of the 2020 Kia Telluride SUV. Revealed at the 2019 North American International Auto Show, held in Detroit, Michigan, car enthusiasts have gotten a much more in-depth look at Kia’s attempt at a rugged, full-size SUV. So, how does it stack up? It the Telluride powerful enough with plenty of performance features to carve a place into the automotive market? We’ll look at the performance capabilities of the 2020 Kia Telluride today to find out!

2020 Kia Telluride SUV Engine Specs and Power Output

As far we know, the 2020 Kia Telluride will only have 1 engine option across its 4 trim levels. However, that engine in question is quite a beauty. That would be an Atkinson Cycle LAMBDA II 3.8L V6 GDI engine. That, for many, is a mouthful. However, to boil it down to the essentials, this 3.8L V6 engine produces 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque.

2020 Kia Telluride SUV USA Release Date

Assembled in the United States, the 2020 Kia Telluride will be made available for purchase in the spring of 2019. Initially limited in scope, with fewer models being made available nationwide, this practice will be done to first judge the reception of Kia’s brand-new SUV. It is likely that the sales and word of mouth will impact the decision to release the 2020 Kia Telluride at a larger scale in the future.
