    I can’t believe they did away with the rectangular running lights. That was the signature of the Telluride, what made it identifiable from a quarter mile away. Everyone loved them.

    I gotta thank you Joe, and the whole Raiti's team, for these great videos - I was in the unfortunate position of needing to replace a car in this market, and I checked your channel every time I was considering a model. Virtually all the ones I was considering had been covered at some point pretty recently. The honest feedback and walkthroughs were so much help before even stepping foot on a lot. Even if we don't agree on flat black wheel surrounds haha!

    IMO the 2023 was redesigned to fit the X Pro/X Line Models (Not sure about the Standard EX/SX). I have the 2023 X Pro in Wolf Gray and its truly beautiful. The off-road tires add such a rugged look and it really does look mean. I understand the concern over the DRLs and sometimes wish they were still there, but the new headlights do look great and the front end is still very attractive and aggressive. The car definitely shows better in person than on video. Couldn't be happier with our purchase!

    Kia has done a fantastic job, with the off road version, of the Telluride! With this off road package, the Telluride looks great, and you get an extra 500 pounds towing which is awesome!! But i've said this before and I'll say it again, Kia needs to make a performance version of the Telluride, to keep the momentum going. Can't you picture the Stinger's 3.3 twin turbo stuffed in this Telluride. Kia, if you are reading the comments please consider!! Somebody's gotta compete with the Explorer ST and the Acura MDX Type-S. So it may as well be KIA!!!

    Can we stop the nonsense already, the redesign of the front and rear end is a total
    miss. Should have left that alone.
    One thing they should have done I mean how hard is it to hide the rear wiper under the rear brake light
    and make the area look really clean.
    No hybrid or Ev model yet?
    Also, would have liked to see electric tilting and telescopic steering wheel and a beefer arm rests
    for the rear caption chairs.
    Since there is no nightfall edition, I wonder how many customers will be doing a blackout of
    the chrome pieces. Can we add exhaust tips to the driver side please.
    I thought about trading in my 2021 sx-p nightfall for a 2023 model but after seeing what they did
    to the front and rear end, I think I will keep mine.
    Everything else that were redesigned were what customers were asking for, so I guess Kia
    listened. It will be interesting to see how the 2023 model sells compared to other years.

    Owning a 2022 SX and love it. Not sure I really care for the tablet like dash in these. I feel like the current 2022 dash with digital inside it would be better.

    Joe, they should have kept the TELLURIDE hood lettering. And the amber lights. But this is still my favorite non-luxury SUV. Only the Jeep Grand Cherokee L comes close, and it’s not that close.

      What do you expect when it's all digital? I rather have analog in dash telling me the mph. Cuz once that goes out. You won't be able to go to any mechanic. Will have to be dealership which charge an arm and a leg. And as we know it. Digital stuff usually goes out on you very quickly.

  • @tomwright9615

    Just bought an X-pro with terracotta interior. Great looks. Rides great. They forgot my front license bracket? I would like to see led lights under the door frames when you open the doors so you can see where you are stepping. Disabling the auto stop would be nice without buying an after market kit. The turn signal digital cameras are hard to see as they are blocked by the steering wheel. I'm not using them. I use the mirrors. I'd like to see the side mirrors be digital too. Bang for the buck, this is the way to go. I did have to search the entire US to find the color and trim I wanted. My local San Diego dealers had the X-Pro marked +$10K over MSRP. I got mine for $550 under MSRP.

    I have the 2022 model. One thing that no one has ever mentioned in any of these review videos is that you can't use the memory seat buttons to adjust the seat while the vehicle is in drive. It has to be parked to adjust the seat with the memory button. Small gripe but my wife drives mine from time to time and it's annoying to get a mile down the road and then have to stop and put it in park to move the seat back.
