"Kia has a longstanding commitment to innovation, quality and driver satisfaction, and we're honored that the experts at Edmunds are once again recognizing these values in our vehicles," said Sean Yoon, president & CEO, Kia Motors America, Kia Motors North America. "The award-winning Telluride and K5 represent success in two very different segments and are proof of the brand's 'Give It Everything' spirit."
As a two-time Edmunds Top Rated Awards winner, the Telluride's popularity as a big and bold SUV is undeniable and has set a high bar for all Kia vehicles to achieve. New for 2021 and representing a new chapter in Kia's bold design, the K5 is the brand's most powerful mid-size sedan ever offering drivers an inspired and technology-packed alternative to the traditional sedan.
"We test over 300 vehicles every year, and it's clear that the K5 and Telluride are category winners," said Alistair Weaver, editor-in-chief at Edmunds. "The K5's ride is as smooth as those from some luxury sedans, and it makes a striking first impression thanks to sharp design that's far more compelling than some of its more pedestrian-looking competition. In terms of SUVs, the Telluride has truly changed our expectations for the segment, thanks to its combination of high-quality design, family-friendly functionality and impressive value."
