New Jersey drivers need SUVs that can handle just about anything because every drive here is a bit of a wild card. One minute, you're cruising down Sussex County backroads, and the next, you're stuck behind someone doing 10 under on Route 206 with no passing lane in sight. That's why the Kia Telluride and Kia Sorento Hybrid stand out as two of the best midsize SUVs for Garden State drivers, earning mentions in Nielsen Editorial's Best Midsize SUVs for NJ Drivers.
The Kia Telluride is a family hauler with serious swagger. With three-row seating, a luxurious interior, and more cargo space than you think you need (until you do), it's built for road trips, carpools, and those Costco runs that start with "just a few things" and end with enough snacks for an army. And because NJ weather likes to keep us guessing, available all-wheel drive (AWD) and multiple-drive modes help you power through icy Sussex County mornings, muddy trails, and whatever else Mother Nature decides to throw your way.
For drivers who want big SUV space without the big gas bill, the Kia Sorento Hybrid is a fuel-saving MVP. With an EPA-estimated 36 MPG combined, this SUV lets you spend less time at the pump and more time enjoying the important things - like diner breakfasts and boardwalk fries. Whether you're commuting down Route 15 or heading to Mountain Creek for a weekend on the slopes, the Sorento Hybrid keeps your wallet (and your gas gauge) happy.
Whether you need bold, spacious luxury or practical, fuel-efficient versatility, the Telluride and Sorento Hybrid are built for the twists, turns, and tollbooths of NJ life.
