While some materials could be better, the Telluride still manages to ooze a bit more style than you’ll get in the Sorento. The spacious interior does feel luxurious initially, but upon closer examination you’ll realize that the wood is fake and there’s a bit more hard plastic than we’d like to see. Inside the Telluride is available with a long list of luxury features, like Nappa leather seats, dual sunroofs, heated and ventilated second-row seats, a head-up display and a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Even if the Telluride isn’t able to tackle the dirt roads as well as a 4Runner or Jeep Grand Cherokee, its rugged and boxy styling is a breath of fresh air compared to some other large crossovers that simply look like raised minivans. So don’t expect it to be able to match the capabilities of more rugged SUVs, like the Toyota 4Runner. On the outside the Telluride’s boxy styling gives it a more rugged, adventurous look than the Sorento, but underneath the Telluride is based on a unibody platform, which it also shares with the Hyundai Palisade. The front-wheel drive Telluride is rated at 20 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, while if you opt for all-wheel drive those specs decline slightly to 19/24 mpg. Although the Telluride does have almost 300 horsepower, we do wish the Telluride was available with the same twin turbocharged 3.3L V6 engine that gives the Stinger so much life. Front-wheel drive is standard, but all-wheel drive is optional. of torque, that’s mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Under the hood the Telluride is powered by a 3.8L V6 that generates 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft.
