OAKES KIA NKC • SERVING TOPEKA • VIA I-70 EAST TO I-70 • MOVEMENT THAT INSPIRES
The Best Warranty in the Segment. The Space Your Family Needs.
Topeka families evaluating three-row SUVs consistently return to two questions: which vehicle offers the most genuine interior space for their family’s size, and which warranty protection gives them the most confidence for long-term ownership? The 2027 Kia Telluride answers both with authority. Its three-row cabin accommodates 7 or 8 passengers with the kind of genuine legroom that growing families require, and Kia’s 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty leads the midsize three-row segment by a significant margin over Ford, Honda, and Toyota alternatives.
Oakes Kia in North Kansas City is accessible from Topeka via I-70 east — approximately 65 to 70 miles — and serves Topeka-area buyers with full Telluride inventory depth and transparent pricing that Topeka families have consistently found worth the drive.
Three Advantages That Topeka Families Consistently Value
10-Year Powertrain Coverage
Kia’s 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty covers the engine, transmission, and drivetrain for 10 years from the original in-service date. Topeka buyers who plan to keep their vehicle for 7 to 10 years find this warranty changes the long-term ownership calculation significantly compared to Ford’s 5-year/60,000-mile and Honda’s 5-year/60,000-mile alternatives.
Third Row Built for Real Families
The Telluride’s three-row architecture provides genuine adult-accessible third-row seating with more legroom than most segment competitors. For Topeka families with multiple children and the need to occasionally transport additional adults, the Telluride’s third-row experience is a meaningful differentiation from the cramped third rows that compromise many competitor SUVs in this class.
Standard Safety Across All Trims
Every 2027 Telluride — including the base LX — includes Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Driver Attention Warning, Rear Occupant Alert, and Blind-Spot Collision Warning. Topeka families who want comprehensive safety technology do not have to choose a premium trim to get it.

2027 Telluride — EPA Estimates
The Telluride’s 3.8L V6 achieves 26 MPG highway in FWD configuration — strong efficiency for a 291-horsepower three-row SUV. For Topeka families making the I-70 corridor run to Kansas City for work or weekend events, the FWD model’s highway efficiency provides a cost advantage over AWD at equivalent trim levels.

“The 10-year warranty was the deciding factor for our family. We keep vehicles for a long time, and knowing the powertrain is covered for a decade makes the ownership decision straightforward. Oakes Kia NKC handled the Kansas documentation and deal structure correctly from the start.”
“Three kids and a dog. The Telluride EX is the first vehicle we’ve owned that genuinely fits our whole family without compromise. The I-70 drive to Oakes Kia NKC was worth every mile — the inventory was deeper and the pricing more transparent than anywhere local.”

Common Questions from Topeka-Area Telluride Buyers
How does Kia’s 10-year warranty compare to Ford Explorer and Honda Pilot?
Kia’s 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty doubles the standard coverage offered by Ford (5-year/60,000-mile) and Honda (5-year/60,000-mile). For Topeka families who plan to own their vehicle for 7 to 10 years, this difference represents meaningful additional coverage value — particularly for drivetrain components that typically experience the most significant repair costs in the 6-10 year ownership window.
How far is Oakes Kia NKC from Topeka?
Our Burlington Street location in North Kansas City is approximately 65 miles east of Topeka via I-70. Most Topeka buyers complete the online process — finance application, trade estimate, inventory selection — before making the drive, which keeps in-dealership time focused on the vehicle.
Are government employee pricing programs available at Oakes Kia NKC for Topeka buyers?
Qualifying Kansas state employees may access special Kia pricing programs. Ask our finance team for current eligibility requirements and applicable models when you contact us or visit our dealership.
Does the Telluride’s blind-spot system work at highway speeds on I-70?
Yes. Blind-Spot Collision Warning monitors for vehicles in adjacent lanes continuously and provides visual and audible alerts when a vehicle is present in the blind zone during a lane change. The system operates at highway speeds and is standard equipment on all Telluride trim levels.
What is the Telluride’s third-row legroom compared to the Toyota Highlander?
The Telluride provides more third-row legroom than the Toyota Highlander in most measurement comparisons, accommodating adults on shorter trips more comfortably. Specific measurements depend on seating configuration — our team can walk you through the third-row experience during a test drive.
