Which 2027 Telluride Trim Is Right for Johnson County Families?
Best Entry Value: Kia Telluride LX or S (~$39,190 - $41,990)
Starting from ~$39,190 MSRPFor Johnson County buyers who want the redesigned Telluride experience at the most accessible price, the LX and S deliver the new 2.5L turbo engine, Kia's 10-year warranty, standard safety tech, and seating for up to 8 without the premium content price jump. The S adds heated seats and remote start - worthwhile additions for Olathe winters. Both are strong picks if your budget is around $40,000 to $43,000 all-in.
Most Popular Pick: Kia Telluride EX (~$44,990)
Starting from ~$44,990 MSRPThe EX is the sweet spot for most Johnson County families - leather seating, panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, and the surround view monitor come standard. It's the trim where the new Telluride's interior really starts to feel premium. For families who want a genuinely refined three-row SUV without reaching SX pricing, the EX is the most logical stopping point in the 2027 lineup.
Full Tech Pick: Kia Telluride SX (~$49,490)
Starting from ~$49,490 MSRPThe SX adds Meridian premium audio, a head-up display, Highway Driving Assist, and a power liftgate. For families who spend significant time on Johnson County roads and Kansas City highways and want technology that genuinely changes the daily experience, the SX is the compelling upgrade from the EX. The Meridian audio system in particular is a noticeable improvement over base audio on longer family drives.
Adventure Pick: X-Line and X-Pro Variants
From ~$46,990 (X-Line EX) to ~$56,790 (X-Pro SX Prestige)The X-Line brings bold blacked-out styling and standard AWD to the EX and SX. The X-Pro goes further with genuine off-road hardware - 9.1 inches of ground clearance, all-terrain tires, an electronic limited-slip differential, a standard tow hitch, and Ground View Monitor. For Johnson County families who camp, tow to Smithville Lake, or want a Telluride built to go beyond pavement, the X-Pro is the purpose-built choice.
Luxury Pick: Kia Telluride SX Prestige (~$53,490)
Starting from ~$53,490 MSRPThe SX Prestige is the 2027 Telluride at its most refined - Nappa leather, available second-row captain's chairs with Relaxation Mode, rear entertainment, and every available comfort feature. For buyers who want a vehicle that competes with luxury three-row SUVs at a more accessible price, the SX Prestige makes a strong case. The new interior design inspired by the EV9 gives it a genuinely upscale feel throughout.

View 2027 Telluride Inventory Get Pre-QualifiedWhat Does a 2027 Kia Telluride Actually Cost Out the Door in Olathe?
MSRP is the starting point. Your total out-the-door cost in Olathe, Kansas includes:
- Kansas state sales tax - Kansas applies a 6.5% state sales tax on vehicle purchases. Johnson County adds local taxes on top, bringing your combined rate to approximately 9.475% depending on your specific address. On a $44,990 Telluride EX, that's approximately $4,260 in combined sales tax
- Title and registration fees - Budget approximately $200 to $400 for Kansas title and registration on a new Telluride purchase
- Destination and handling charge - Kia charges a destination fee that is included in the MSRP figures listed above
- Trade-in sales tax benefit - In Kansas, you pay sales tax only on the difference between your new vehicle's price and your trade-in value. On a $44,990 EX with a $20,000 trade-in, you pay tax on $24,990 rather than $44,990 - saving approximately $1,900 in sales tax compared to selling privately
