Is There Really a 2026 Kia Telluride LX?⌄
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 LX 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.
