It’s a real testament to the increased quality of vehicles around the world that two of the most highly-touted SUVs on today’s market come from South Korea and Germany, respectively.

Both of these SUVs are the largest in their respective lines, and each offers an All-Wheel Drive system that can keep you and your three rows of passengers controlled no matter the condition. However, when it comes to staying comfortable and connected inside, nothing touches the Telluride. It offers a 10.25-inch touchscreen display with a Driver Talk feature that allows you to keep tabs on your passengers – that’s something that the Atlas can’t provide. In addition, the 2020 Telluride brings four available drive modes (Comfort, Eco, Sport and Smart) and the following driver assistance features to the fold, all of which can help you stay secure in ways that the Atlas falls short in:
Blind Spot View Monitor
Highway Driving Assist
Safe Exit Assist
Surround View Monitor
Many more!
Because of all this advancement, it’s easy to understand why the new Telluride was named “Best in Show” at the 2019 Detroit Auto Show. It’s available today on our Racine, WI dealership lot, so be sure to contact us whenever you get a chance, and we’ll get you set up with a no-hassle test drive!
