If you're in the market for an SUV, Kia is introducing a new model that might fit all of your needs. The 2020 Kia Telluride, which was introduced during New York Fashion Week and is based on a concept car, will offer bold style, plenty of space, and excellent features and conveniences. Learn more about what we know so far about this exciting addition to the Kia lineup. Distinctive Exterior Style Although the Kia Telluride that debuted during New York Fashion Week had plenty of extra equipment on the outside that won't come on the production model, it's easy to see the SUV will still offer distinctive and head-turning style. The body is bold and boxy and has an almost truck-like silhouette. The vehicle features a wide grille, tall headlights that sit high on the body, and wide taillights. Additionally, it appears as though the headlights could also sport daytime running lights on the bottom. Streamlined Technology The new Kia Telluride appears to showcase some streamlined technology to make driving easier and more comfortable. It seems as though the SUV will have a semi-digital dual-zone climate control system and advanced infotainment system. Plenty of Space Although final measurements are not yet known, Kia does say that the Telluride is several inches wider and longer than the Sorento. Currently, the Kia Sorento offers seating for up to seven people. If you need more space than that, you'll appreciate that the Telluride can hold up to eight people. This means that unlike the third row in the Sorento that only accommodates two people, the Telluride will have a third row that can seat three. However, some industry insiders believe it's possible the Telluride will also have a seven-seat model with captain's chairs in the second row. Comfortable Interior In addition to plenty of extra space, the Kia Telluride should provide a comfortable interior with some of your favorite conveniences. Kia hasn't specified what type of features will come on the Telluride. However, if you take a look at the model shown during New York Fashion Week, you'll see sophisticated style and comfort. While this particular model showcases wood trim and special leather trim that most industry experts agree are either only for the debut or only available on top trim levels, you can still expect plenty of soft touches and impressive features. Powerful Engine So far, the only thing we know about the engine under the hood of the Telluride is that it's a V-6 engine. Kia hasn't offered any additional information or performance specifics beyond that. However, some industry experts believe it's possible the Telluride will have the same 3.3-liter V-6 engine that's available in the Sorento. If so, it might also produce 290 horsepower and 252 pound-feet of torque. Additionally, it seems safe to assume the Telluride will also have an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. If you're thinking about getting a new SUV, the 2020 Kia Telluride should arrive in early 2019. With these great features and more, it's easy to see why you should wait until this impressive SUV hits the market.   Image via Kia

The Kia Optima is one of the most well-known cars around the world for its combination of style, luxury, performance, safety, and affordability. As new features are developed, Kia continues to add them to the Optima and other vehicles which keeps the Optima in high demand. If you are looking for a new vehicle that is loaded with new features, here are three things you'll love about the 2018 Kia Optima. Blind Spot Detection Many accidents occur because our vehicles have blind spots. Because of the way that vehicles are built, this problem is impossible to avoid. However, there is a way around them. The 2018 Kia Optima comes equipped with a blind spot detection system. It uses sensors strategically placed around the exterior to watch all of your blind spots. If you try to change lanes when the BSD system senses another vehicle, it will warn you immediately. That way, you can avoid a collision. It also works well when you are backing up to avoid unseen obstacles behind you. Harman/Kardon QuantumLogic Sound System For 2018, Kia chose an upgraded sound system for the Optima. The 2018 Kia Optima has the new Harman/Kardon QuantumLogic Sound System which makes a substantial difference in the quality of the sound. The Optima uses a 10-speaker system that generates up to 630 watts to deliver high-quality audio to every square inch of the cabin. With the included Clari-Fi sound restoration technology, your music will reach a new level of quality and clarity you won't hear anywhere else. Projector Beam Headlights Light technology is making huge advancements in terms of durability, reducing energy consumption, and increasing visibility. That's why the 2018 Kia Optima comes with projector beam headlights. They reach much farther and are highly visible even during the day. Having the right headlights makes you much safer when driving in any condition. Storage Capacity Sedans offer some of the best luxury and performance features, but many drivers are not happy with the lack of storage capacity. The Kia Optima has some of the best cargo space in its class. It is designed with a large trunk with plenty of space for packages. Combined with a wide opening and a deep height, the trunk is more than enough for most things that you would carry on a regular basis. The automatic trunk system is also useful for getting things in and out of the trunk hands-free. It is location activated, so the trunk will open if you are standing in front of it with the key. You won't have to struggle with keys and packages anymore. The 2018 Kia Optima is a great option if you are looking for a high-quality sedan loaded with some of the best features available on the market. Visit your local Kia dealer today to test drive the new Optima as soon as it becomes available. With Kia's record of producing high-quality vehicles like the Optima, you will likely want to drive away with one.   Photo by Kia

When the Kia Rio hit American roads in 2000, it didn't garner great reviews. Sure, it provided a place to get from here to there with a cheap price tag and excellent fuel economy, but it didn't do anything to change the game. Eighteen years later, Kia brings the fourth generation of the Kia Rio to showrooms, and it looks every bit the part of a game changer. Available in both a four-door sedan and a five-door hatchback, the Kia breathes new life into the subcompact segment. Here's a look at all it has to offer in the upcoming year. Engine Options One of the most intriguing options of the 2018 Kia Rio is its three engine options. Ranging from super efficient to powerful, yet not pretentious, the Rio has an engine for every type of driver. The first option is a 1.2-liter, inline four-cylinder engine that delivers 83 horsepower and 90 pound-feet of torque. It won't win any land speed records, but it's sure to provide the fuel economy that entices buyers in the segment. The next choice is a turbocharged 1.4-liter, diesel inline four-cylinder that adds a bit more oomph with 89 horsepower and a surprising 177 pound-feet of torque. The only deal with this engine is that Kia hasn't yet revealed whether this option will be available in the U.S., Europe, or both. Finally, the Kia Rio may also have a rare, turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine aimed at providing both efficiency and speed. It kicks out 99 horsepower, which is awesome despite its tiny engine displacement. It's not yet known which transmission will come with each engine or if you can choose the options, but a five-speed manual, six-speed manual, and four-speed automatic are all on the table. Additional Features You could purchase the entry-level Rio when it comes out, but you'd miss out on some of the amazing features that come with the high-end trims. Early details are scant, but it looks like there's a number of comforts, safety, and convenience features that are sure to please. Remote keyless entry, Bluetooth wireless technology, a rear camera display, 15-inch alloy wheels, and Kia UVO eServices will all come on upper-level models. However, the addition of autonomous emergency braking is the true standout, showing Kia's continued commitment to vehicle safety. Smartphone Connectivity In the past few years, Kia has put a premium on adding advanced technology features to their vehicles. The 2018 Rio is no different. This year, the Rio adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. With these two systems, you can seamlessly connect your mobile device, which brings your apps and other gadgets to the car's head unit. Not only does this give you instant access to music, navigation, and apps, but it also keeps your eyes on the road. That way, you won't have to test out the autonomous emergency braking. The 2018 Kia Rio is a bold statement from the Korean automaker that shows they mean nothing but business. It's not yet known when the Rio will hit showrooms, so you'll just have to drool for a bit longer. Image by Kia

Kia first came to the United States in 1992 with the intention of selling economical cars that appealed to commuters, college graduates, and those looking for a value buy. With this mantra, the Korean automaker never dared to approach the sports car realm. Most sports car manufacturers had already established a loyal following and cornered the market. Yet here we are 25 years later, and it's finally happened. Kia has breached the sports car segment. If you haven't heard the news, the 2018 Kia Stinger looks, feels, and plays the part of a sports sedan masterpiece. Here's a quick look at the stunning 2018 Stinger. The Peter Schreyer Touch If you hadn't noticed, Kia started to undergo a revolution of design and ingenuity starting in 2006. That's the year Kia lured Peter Schreyer from the Volkswagen Group, which manufactures Bentley, Audi, and Lamborghini. When he arrived, he turned his interests to making Kia a more reputable brand through attractive design. The Kia Stinger was just one of his brainchildren. Combining European styling with Korean innovation, the Stinger was born, and just 12 years later, it's finally made its way to production. A Driver's Car With two turbocharged engine options, the 2018 Kia Stinger is the ultimate driver's car. What makes this even more remarkable is that it's Kia's first attempt to create a sports car, and it seems like they hit on all cylinders. The stock engine for the Stinger is a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder that kicks out 255 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. If that's not enough to satisfy your zest for speed, an upgrade to the 3.3-liter twin turbo V6 will undoubtedly do the trick. Behind this engine, the Kia pumps out an impressive 365 horsepower and up to 376 pound-feet of torque. That's enough power to compare with the big boys of the industry. Both engine choices mate with a swift, sporty eight-speed automatic transmission. Performance Hardware Performance isn't just about having a mammoth engine. It's about having the underpinnings to tackle any obstacle, curve, or straightaway thrown in your path. Fortunately, the Stinger contributes a number of specs that easily propel it around the tightest spaces and turns. Brembo vented disc brakes allow you to stop on a dime or slow your speed enough to turn comfortably, while dynamic stability control with five modes allows you to grip the road with ease. A MacPherson front and multi-link rear suspension provides even more comfort as you drive, while rack-mounted motor driven power steering allows you to navigate with no trouble at all. Safety Features The Kia Stinger looks and plays the part of a sports car, but it has tons of active safety features you don't see often in the genre. All of this tech is 100 percent designed to prevent accidents. Highlights include a Kia-first driver attention alert, forward collision assistance, blind spot detection, and rear cross traffic alert. With these features, you can feel safe and confident even when you're cruising with some pace. The 2018 Kia Stinger is a roll of the dice for Kia, but everything about it seems like a winner. Don't miss your chance to be a part of Kia history by getting behind the wheel of the Stinger in late 2017.   Image by Kia

The Kia Cadenza is a great choice for anyone in the market for a four-door full-size sedan. The Cadenza combines an attractive design with a slew of safety and technology features.

Discover below all you need to know about the 2017 Kia Cadenza and what makes it so good. Excellent Safety It's a given that your car comes with the bare minimum level of safety that protects you and your occupants. But Kia goes way beyond the bare minimum with the 2017 Cadenza. At its very foundation, Kia designed the Cadenza for maximum protection. A special 'Iso-Structure' construction gives the Cadenza a lightweight yet incredibly strong build. Then, there are a plethora of active safety features, including traction control to keep the wheels from spinning out of control upon acceleration. You also reap the benefit of a vehicle stability management system that increases driving control in tough conditions. An antilock braking system reduces skidding while a brake assist system helps you out in emergencies. Finally, an advanced airbag system with included sensors ensures complete protection for all occupants during an accident. Top Technology Kia excels with the available tech features in the 2017 Kia Cadenza. In addition to the active safety features, you get a 360-degree parking camera.

You'll even have your texts read aloud to you via the available 12-speaker Harmon Kardon audio system. There are two USB ports to charge your mobile devices with. Impressive Powertrain The base engine comes included across all three trim levels of the 2017 Kia Cadenza. You get a 3.3-liter V6 engine for your money that outputs power ratings of 290 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque. The base engine comes paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission that offers smooth shifting and a comfortable, easy ride. The standard driving system across all trims is a front-wheel drive system. In terms of performance from the engine, you can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in just 6.8-seconds, which is impressive. Expect to come to a complete stop from a speed of 60 mph within 115 feet. Combined with the responsive brake pedal, the Kia Cadenza is easy to slow down in. Smooth Aesthetics The interior brings a sense of luxury to you with quilted seat bolsters and a padded driver's knee rest for superior comfort. Available LED daytime lighting and a stylish tiger nose grille gives the Kia Cadenza a bold, attractive exterior. The Z-shaped daytime running lights are particularly eye-catching.
