Cabin
Nicer Materials
The EX steps up cabin materials over the S for a more upscale feel front to back.
Convenience
More Standard Tech
Added convenience technology over the S makes daily driving and long hauls easier.
Packages
X-Line & X-Pro Start Here
The EX is the entry point for both the adventure-styled X-Line and the trail-ready X-Pro — neither is offered on the LX or S.
Drivetrain
AWD Available (+$2,000)

What Does the EX Add Over the S?⌄

Is There Really a 2026 Kia Telluride EX?⌄
Kia did not publish a distinct 2026 model-year Telluride — the automaker carried the final first-generation Telluride, unchanged 3.8L V6 and all, through the 2026 selling season and moved straight to an all-new second-generation Telluride for 2027. The EX pricing shown here is Kia’s last officially published Telluride price sheet, and it’s exactly what’s in stock at Dean McCrary Kia today.
