I noticed right away, there's quite a bit less grunt under there than in the Telluride, but it's peppy.
Gmc awd 9 passenger suv manual#
In X mode, I have it in snow dirt, traction control off, even in manual shift. Can't believe they're paying me to do this. I can actually feel this thing staying up on top of the sand and doing its thing. Having 291 horsepower actually does make quite a bit of difference here. Wow, this thing is actually really doing well.
We want to see these things actually perform to their best. So we lowered the PSI a little bit, because we're not monsters. These things are actually hooking up pretty good. Whoo! So the X-pro that I'm driving- that package offers 8.4 inches of ground clearance, some 18-inch wheels, with some legit all-terrain tires.
I'm in manual mode, Sport, locked the center diff, and let's go. And I'm jealous, it looked like a lot of fun. Big tires, big power- no surprises there. Obviously, the Bronco blew right through the sand wash. So now, as we all know, getting up to that epic mountaintop campsite, you're going to run into some interesting terrain and obstacles, and a deep sandy wash is one of them. If you're interested in the tech, seating, cargo, MPGs, just head on over to, where you'll find reviews, rankings, all the writeups, and video content. In this video, we're going to focus primarily on the trailability of these vehicles. We don't know what's going to happen here, and I'm going to send these things. We thought to bring out what's considered a real off-roader, not only as a benchmark vehicle, but also as a potential recovery vehicle. You may notice Edmunds' own long-term test Bronco lurking in the background. We just want to see if either of these approaches to factory-added off-road upgrades have any merit once the tires hit the trail. This Telluride is a big seven-passenger people mover, and that Forester is a classic compact SUV. We realize these two vehicles don't line up against each other. Now, before you send your fingers flying into the comments section, no, this is not a comparison test. And we brought along a 2023 Subaru Forester with their most dirt-capable wilderness package. I'm behind the wheel of this 2023 Kia Telluride, equipped with their new off-road-ish X-pro package. We grabbed a couple of our recent favorites and are heading out into the rough stuff to find out right now. But do they really offer any extra capabilities? Or are they just poser packages? We've noticed a big trend in the auto industry- a whole lot of family crossovers are getting off-road-minded trim levels. And congratulations, you've just jumped on board with us for this Edmunds soft-roading trail test.
