About Telluride Keys
The table below is our verified key reference for the Kia Telluride — model years, key types, and the transponder/immobilizer family each generation uses. Generations overlap at boundary years, and trim levels (keyed vs. push-to-start) can differ within the same year, so we always confirm the exact part by VIN before dispatching.
| Model / Generation | Years | Key Type | Transponder / Immobilizer | Blade / FCC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Telluride | 2020–2023 | Smart-proximity | Philips Hitag 3 ID47 | KK12 (emergency) |
Security System & Immobilizer
Kia’s keys track Hyundai’s architecture — ID46 transponder and flip-key era, then Hitag3 ID47 smart keys, with ID4A on the latest models.
On the Telluride specifically, the immobilizer families we see are: Philips Hitag 3 ID47. A key that is cut correctly but not programmed to this system will turn the locks and never start the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.

Kia Telluride Key FAQ
I lost the only key to my Telluride. What now?
We come to the vehicle, verify ownership, cut a new key from the VIN, and program it on-site. No tow, no dealer wait — this is our most common Telluride call.
My Telluride is push-to-start. Can you really program that outside the dealer?
Yes. Late-model Tellurides (2020–2023) use a proximity smart key on the Philips Hitag 3 ID47 system — our trucks carry the fobs and the programmer. We cut the emergency blade too.
