What SX Prestige Adds Over SX
This is the flagship cabin of the final first-generation Telluride, and it’s also the door into the trail-ready X-Pro.
Upholstery
Nappa Leather
In place of the SX’s upholstery, Nappa leather seating brings the richest cabin material Telluride offers.
Display
Head-Up Display
Key driving information projects right onto the windshield, straight in the driver’s line of sight.
Comfort
Heated & Ventilated 2nd Row
Passengers in row two get both heating and ventilation — not something you see often at this price.
Drivetrain
AWD Standard
Every SX Prestige comes with all-wheel drive built in — no add-on needed, unlike on the base SX.

Choose SX Prestige If…
You’re after the complete luxury cabin — Nappa leather, head-up display, a heated and ventilated second row — but don’t need to pay extra for off-road hardware.
Choose SX or SX Prestige X-Pro Instead If…
You’d rather have the lowest price with X-Line eligibility (the SX), or the flagship cabin combined with genuine off-road hardware (the SX Prestige X-Pro).

SX Prestige FAQs
How Much Does the 2026 Telluride SX Prestige Cost?⌄

What Do You Get With SX Prestige That the SX Doesn’t Have?⌄
Nappa leather seating, a head-up display, and a second row that’s heated and ventilated, plus standard AWD — making this the plushest first-generation Telluride and the launching point for the SX Prestige X-Pro.
Is There Actually a True 2026 Kia Telluride SX Prestige?⌄
Kia skipped a standalone 2026 model-year update — instead, the automaker kept selling the outgoing first-generation Telluride, 3.8L V6 and all, through the 2026 season before launching an all-new second-generation model for 2027. The SX Prestige pricing here reflects Kia’s final published Telluride price sheet, which lines up with what’s actually on the lot at Dean McCrary Kia right now.
Where’s the Nearest Place to Buy a 2026 Telluride SX Prestige Near Hattiesburg?⌄
Dean McCrary Kia at 7124 US Hwy 98 is a short hop from downtown Hattiesburg’s Hub sign and the Saenger Theatre, and just as convenient from Petal, Oak Grove, Purvis, Sumrall, and the rest of the Pine Belt, for the SX Prestige and the rest of the final first-generation Telluride lineup. Every new Telluride arrives with upfront pricing and factory warranty.
