I recently purchased a 2024 Kia Telluride. Is there a break-in period recommended for new cars, and can I safely drive it at 75 mph?

Check your owner's manual, but today's new cars generally do not require a break-in period.

Check your owners manual. They usually say something like: drive at varying speeds and RPM’s, don’t use cruise control for the first 500 miles.

Break-in periods went the way of the dodo decades ago. Even my '79 Pontiac's dealer level service manual didn't require a break-in period when it was brand new. Just do gentle and brisk accelerations without hitting the red line, and do it for the first 1,000 miles. Avoid using cruise control for the first thousand miles.
