The 2020 Telluride, Kia’s newest three-row SUV offering, is set to go on sale soon, and we now know how much it will cost. The base LX model starts at $32,735, and loaded SX versions come in just under $47,000-a good value, considering other competitors in this segment can top $50,000 easily. As expected, it’s also priced a bit higher than the Sorento, Kia’s other mid-size SUV offering, which also offers a third row but is significantly smaller in most dimensions.
