The Kia Telluride is a concept car built by Kia Motors. It was first introduced at the 2016 North American International Auto Show. A full-size, three row, seven passenger SUV, the Telluride is based on a modified Sorento chassis, and powered by a transversely-mounted 3.5-liter gasoline direct injected V6 producing 270 hp combined with an electric motor making 130 hp, for an overall output of 400 hp. Fuel consumption is claimed to be 30 miles per US gallon (7.8 L/100 km).[4]
The exterior is finished in dark myrite paint and features a squared off body riding on 22-inch rims, as well as an enlarged tiger nose grille and multiple LED headlamps, consistent with Kia's current design language (as of 2016).[2] The car's suicide doors swing open 90 degrees in opposite directions,[5] revealing a pillarless design.[3] Some of the interior components are 3D printed, marking Kia's first usage of 3D printing technology.[6]
Although not intended for production, Kia has stated that the design could be used on future vehicles, possibly a future premium large SUV.[7]
