2020 Kia Telluride: Class-Competitive Mileage for the Ride
Kia’s new 2020 Telluride is the automaker’s biggest SUV, and not surprisingly, it has some of the lineup’s smallest numbers when it comes to fuel economy — though it is rated a couple of mpg better than some competitors. The new three-row SUV is EPA rated at 20/26/23 city/highway/combined mpg with front-wheel drive.
