2021 Kia Telluride vs 2021 Toyota Highlander

The SUV market has grown significantly over the past couple of decades. We have seen them replace sedans as the number one vehicle choice among Americans after a long reign. We have also seen several different types of SUVs emerge to meet the varying needs of drivers. This includes full-size, mid-size, small, compact, and crossover SUVs. Our favorite type of SUV is the mid-size SUV because it provides us with the space we desire without going too large.

There are many mid-size SUVs to choose from but two of the most popular models are the 2021 Kia Telluride and the 2021 Toyota Highlander. Both models are known to provide comfort, space, reliability and more. The 2021 Kia Telluride is available in four trim levels and the 2021 Toyota Highlander is available in 10 trim levels. Although they both have several trim options, we will be focusing on their base trim levels. If you are curious to see how these two mid-size SUVs stack up, keep reading for our 2021 Kia Telluride vs 2021 Toyota Highlander.

Looking at the comparison table above, we can see that both the 2021 Kia Telluride and the 2021 Toyota Highlander exhibit impressive qualities. However, since this is a comparison, we have to determine which model has the “better” qualities. As we look at the chart, we think that the Kia Telluride deserves the crown due to its pricing, seating capacity, and cargo space.

  • Blind Spot View Monitor
  • Highway Driving Assist
  • Safe Exit Assist
  • Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist
