What can a Kia Telluride (tow pkg) ('20-26) actually tow?
The rating is the easy half of the answer. A trailer never weighs its brochure dry weight — water is 8.34 lb a gallon, propane and batteries ride along, and so does your gear — and hundreds of models changed their published weights mid-run, so the model year decides as much as the model. Judged that way, with a 10% margin and 2 people aboard: 861 of 5150 campers fit a Kia Telluride (tow pkg), and 19 more fit if you buy the right years.
The number that quietly binds is payload (Kia's US spec sheet lists curb weight only (4,301-4,482 lb AWD) and no GVWR, so payload is omitted rather than derived): tongue weight lands on the rear axle with your passengers and the hitch, so a vehicle often runs out of payload well before it runs out of rating.
1603 fifth wheels are excluded outright: a fifth-wheel hitch mounts in a pickup bed, and the Kia Telluride (tow pkg) has none — at any rating.
Loaded estimate: dry weight + full fresh tank + propane, battery and gear for 2. Headroom is against the rating less 10%.
These changed their published weights mid-run: some model years clear a Kia Telluride (tow pkg), others don't. A listing site treats them as one trailer. They aren't.
