The 2027 Kia Telluride is the new generation of Kia’s three-row flagship. This year, all models are powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter engine, available as either a gas-only four-cylinder or a turbo-hybrid producing 329 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque. The Telluride Hybrid EX FWD aims for a combined 35 mpg with a range of about 600 miles, pending EPA approval. Seating remains flexible for seven or eight, based on whether you choose a second-row bench or captain’s chairs.

The 2026 Chevrolet Trax leans hard into its small-SUV, big-value mission. It starts at $23,495 and delivers an EPA-estimated 30 mpg combined, so it’s not just affordable to buy, but affordable to keep filled up, too. Every Trax uses the same ECOTEC 1.2L turbo engine, an automatic transmission, and front-wheel drive. Inside, the Trax seats five and uses a 60/40 split-folding rear seat to open up to 54 cubic feet of max cargo space.

The 2026 Nissan Rogue stays right in its lane: a compact SUV with two rows, room for five, and a small turbo engine tuned for strong mpg. Every gas Rogue uses a 1.5-liter VC-Turbo three-cylinder with 201 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque, paired with an Xtronic CVT and either front-wheel drive or available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. Nissan quotes up to 33 mpg combined gas mileage. The gas Rogue lineup splits into five trims: S, SV, Dark Armor, Rock Creek, and Platinum.

If you’ve been waiting for Nissan to bring electrification back to the mainstream, the 2026 Nissan Rogue Plug-in Hybrid is the moment. In a walkaround from the LA Auto Show, TrueCar’s Alain Nana-Sinkam breaks down why this is a  practical plug-in for everyday drivers. The headline is simple: the Rogue PHEV is designed to handle the daily commute on electricity with 40 miles of EV driving, then switch to gas power when you need to go farther.

TrueCar’s Alain Nana-Sinkam breaks down why the 2026 Chevrolet Trax is one of the smartest value plays in the segment. It balances the tech you’ll actually use with the kind of everyday space that makes life easier. On the LA Auto Show floor, it stood out as one of the most competitively priced vehicles at the event, with MSRP starting just under $23,000, a number that immediately puts it on the shortlist for budget-focused shoppers.

Get a first look at the all-new 2027 Kia Telluride from the LA Auto Show, as TrueCar’s Alain Nana-Sinkam walks through Kia’s ground-up redesign. The Telluride has been a turning point for the brand. It helped Kia move from  a value alternative to a legit player in the mainstream, near-upscale SUV conversation. The Kia Telluride has even notched sales wins against key rivals like the Honda Pilot in recent stretches.

The Hyundai Palisade is an SUV with a variety of trims tailored to different needs. Three rows, gas or hybrid power, and trims that run from value family hauler to near luxury SUV, it all depends on what you need it for. The 2026 Hyundai Palisade maintains the successful formula that gained it popularity. It provides a spacious three-row crossover accommodating seven or eight passengers, ensuring a smooth ride, and delivering a cabin that often feels more premium than its price.

The 2026 Toyota Camry has fully embraced hybrid technology. With five hybrid trims and no gas-only versions, it stands as one of the most fuel-efficient sedans on the market. All 2026 Camry models come with a 2.5-liter inline-four hybrid engine that generates 225 horsepower, paired with an automatic transmission. You can choose between front-wheel drive or optional all-wheel drive, resulting in a spacious and comfortable ride that is fuel-efficient, especially in the base model.

Four trims built around a new turbo four, from well-equipped to near-luxury. The 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee sticks to its two-row midsize mission, now with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, an eight-speed automatic, and a choice of rear- or four-wheel drive. It’s sized for drivers who want real SUV capability without moving up to a three-row.

Toyota keeps its truck story refreshingly simple: two nameplates, a lot of ways to spec them. The Tacoma covers midsize buyers who need something that can squeeze into tight driveways and trailheads. The Tundra is the full-size rig for big towing jobs, family road trips, and serious payloads. Both offer gas and hybrid powertrains and a spread of trims that swing from work-ready to full luxury. Walk through the 2026 Toyota Tacoma and 2026 Tundra lineup, down to the trim level.
