Does the Kia Telluride have off-road tires?

I just bought a Kia Telluride and I’m looking forward to taking my car on camping trips this summer. I know the Telluride is a capable vehicle, but I am unsure of how it will perform in muddy, off road terrain. Does the Kia Telluride have off-road tires?

Having a trusty and dependable vehicle is particularly important when heading into off-road terrain. While you may want to change your tires for something off-road-specific, your
Kia Telluride
has high-quality, factory-installed tires.
Your
Kia
will have come with high-quality, factory-installed tires, with the all-wheel-drive models equipped with Michelin Primary Tour tires and the four-wheel-drive models riding on Pirelli Scorpion Zero tires.
The Telluride’s all-wheel-drive system locks to enhance grip on muddy roads, and you won’t have to worry about the belly of the Telluride, with the vehicle’s underbody skid plates and eight inches of clearance.
In addition, the Telluride’s center clutch distributes torque from the front to the tear so the all-wheel-drive system can mimic an old-school transfer case four-wheel-drive setup.
While not off-road specific, your Kia’s tires and off-roading features make the Telluride a reliable companion for your camping adventures.
