Review and Test Drive: 2020 Kia Telluride SX AWD
Overall, after several hundred miles on the streets and highways of the New York metro area, we recorded average fuel economy of 23.9 mpg (9.84 l/100 km), just shy of the EPA rating of 24 mpg (9.8 l/100 km).
BOTTOM LINE
We were sad to see the handsome Telluride leave. The combination of good looks, a smooth, refined ride, and the value it delivers at its price point made us unable to imagine how anyone looking for a mid-size three-row SUV could not give it the highest consideration.
