2025 Kia Telluride 0-60 Time and Other Performance Specs

Unfortunately, the OEM hasn’t released conclusive figures on the Kia Telluride 0-60 times or top speed. However, considering that the Kia Telluride horsepower specs top out at 291 hp and it generates up to 262 lb-ft of torque, you can expect it to accelerate from a standstill to 60 mph in approximately seven seconds. This is consistent with tests conducted by sources, such as Edmunds, Car & Driver, Motortrend, and U.S News & World Report, but consider checking out some additional online sources to learn more. Similarly, according to various sources, such as those above, the Kia Telluride top speed ranges from approximately 130 to 132 mph. 

That being said, the best way to see if the Kia Telluride is right for you is to test it yourself! Schedule a test drive with South Hills Kia today, and start your 2025 with a brand-new Telluride.
