What To Expect
The next-generation Telluride focuses on two major areas of improvement: efficiency and high-tech luxury. Here are the most exciting expected features:
- Engine Specs (Rumored): A turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine paired with two electric motors, expected to deliver a combined output of around 329 horsepower and a healthy bump in torque.
- The Benefit: This new setup should provide a significant power upgrade over the current V6 while dramatically improving fuel efficiency, potentially reaching over 30 MPG on the highway.
- Standard V6: The reliable V6 engine is still expected to be offered as the standard option.
- Boxier Profile: The new design will have a more upright, squared-off silhouette, enhancing its road presence and improving interior space.
- New Lighting Cues: Look for slim, vertically oriented LED daytime running lights (DRLs) and similar modern rear lighting elements that give it a distinct, futuristic look.
- X-Pro Capability: Expect the rugged X-Pro trim to return, potentially with even greater off-road capability, including all-terrain tires and enhanced AWD tuning
