Prestige Kia - 637-mile range and real-world hybrid confidence with the 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid around Chippewa Falls, WI
The 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid hits a sweet spot for drivers who want all-day comfort, plenty of power, and fewer stops between fill-ups. Around Chippewa Falls, WI — where daily life mixes county roads, quick hops across town, and longer interstate miles — range and drivability matter. With an EPA-estimated 35 MPG combined on EX FWD and a total driving range of up to 637 miles, this turbo-hybrid lets you do more in a single stretch, whether it’s family visits near Lake Wissota or weekend treks along US 53 and Highway 29.
What stands out is how naturally the Telluride Hybrid pairs its efficient side with confident performance. The 2.5-liter turbocharged hybrid powertrain puts down 329 horsepower and 339 lb.-ft. of torque, giving you the pass-ready urgency you want on rural two-lanes and steady pull onto highway ramps. And with available AWD with Terrain Mode plus optional self-leveling rear suspension, stability and composure come built-in — a difference you can feel when the roads change from smooth pavement to graded gravel.
Long-range practicality without changing your routine
What does 637 miles of total range feel like in daily life? Put simply, it reduces planning friction. That midweek run from Chippewa Falls to Eau Claire and back — plus errands and school pickups — stops stealing time from your schedule. You can tackle a full week of mixed driving without eyeing the fuel gauge so often. And unlike a plug-in, the hybrid system recharges through regenerative braking, so you never need to plug in. Just refuel and go.
Inside, the cabin is designed to support longer stretches. USB-C ports in all three rows and a 115V outlet in the cargo area keep devices powered, while available dual wireless chargers eliminate the cable shuffle up front. The available digital cockpit — 29.6 inches of combined displays — puts navigation, media, vehicle settings, and driver-assistance status in one expansive, glance-friendly space. It all adds up to a calmer, more organized drive when you’re hopping between Chippewa Falls, Lake Hallie, and Eau Claire.
Confidence-enhancing technology for everyday routes
A substantial range is even better when the driving feels easy. When actively engaged, Highway Driving Assist 2 can help with lane centering, speed management, and even assist with lane changes on certain highways — support that makes longer I-94 drives less tiring. The available 12-inch Head-Up Display keeps key details like speed and turn-by-turn directions in your line of sight, and the available Full Display Mirror® gives a clear rear view even with a packed third row.
Around town, the available Blind-Spot View Monitor provides a live camera feed in the gauge cluster to supplement traditional mirrors, and the available 360° Surround View Monitor helps you navigate tight parking lots. Forward Collision Avoidance Assist 2 further supports your daily driving by assisting with braking — and in certain scenarios, steering — including when turning through intersections.
Everyday flexibility with room to grow
The Telluride Hybrid’s interior flexibility stands out for families at different stages. Seating for up to seven is supported by a tilt-and-slide second row that still works even with a car seat installed, making third-row access simpler for older kids, friends, or grandparents. And when the weekend calls for more gear, the cargo area adapts quickly — with the 115V outlet handy for inflating equipment or powering accessories.
When properly equipped, up to 4,500 lbs. of towing capacity means you can bring more of what you love — small campers for Wissota State Park weekends or utility trailers for a Saturday project. Many hybrid competitors limit towing to much lower figures, so this capacity is a key advantage when your plans extend beyond the city limits.
