We just bought a Telluride SX Prestige with the Nightfall package. It’s everything described here and it drives like a luxury vehicle. My Buddy paid 78k for a Mercedes GLE350 and it has very few options with a 4 cylinder engine. After driving both, the Telluride blows it away imho. It is such a smooth driving vehicle and will even steer itself on highways. Best car buying decision we’ve made yet.
Excellent to hear. I got my sx p on order without nightfall but black interior. Excited to get it. It certainly looks nice. I have an infiniti now. Hope the luxury component is about equal.
@@ConquerYou We got the glacial white pearl with the black interior. We didn’t want a light interior color because jeans tend to bleed into the seat material on lighter colors.

@@ConquerYou We had an Infiniti M45 Sport and it was really fun to drive but now we are driving for comfort and the Telluride is sporty looking as well! The QX-60 is a nice SUV but I think the Kia is a bit better.
Dude... you're forgetting one thing.... You're Driving a KIA ! I would definitely pay extra for the Mercedes ! KIA has absolutely ZERO Prestige or Cachet !
We just bought one. The attention to detail rivals what I’ve seen in the labeled “luxury SUVs.” Super quiet ride and barely have to press the accelerator. Big fan of the raised touchscreen. The thing is gigantic. Most of these trims you see are going to run you $50k. Not sure how many our out there at that base price but these things are in high demand and there were 3 buyers on the lot all trying to drive off in the same one. These hold their value so much that used models are almost the same as a new model.
I sat in one of these.... I thought.... This is what everybody is talking about ? It didn't feel luxurious or Upscale at all ! I definitely did NOT want one after sitting in it ! I sat in a Nissan Pathfinder... that wasn't that good either, but it felt better than the Telluride.... Then I got in the Nissan Armada ! That felt GREAT ! Even though it was big....

@@adrianrios738 I'm telling you that I sat in the Telluride and it Sucked ! I sat in the Armada and it felt Fantastic ! I did not say one was better on the road than the other !
I love that the safety trims are included already and not an additional add on. im currently in a 2018 soul and on 72+k miles and its still running smoothly and i love it. definitely going to upsize to the Telluride when its time to get a new car
I love the Telluride and Stinger, but Kia’s dealer network keeps me from buying one. I wish Kia would adopt a direct-to-consumer model like Tesla/Rivian.
Agreed. The Kia and Hyundai dealership experience is just god-awful. It’s so rare to have an even “ok” experience in my area. Then again, we live in Florida so we’re not dealing with the “crème de la crème” if you know what I mean. These are hard-working working-class stiffs with poor English skills. Can’t be helped. That’s most of the sales people in most entry-level brands. What are ya gonna do, right? Ordering online is the only way to go, but they still don’t have that, almost three decades after the dawn of the Internet. Sad…
Couldn't agree more. All-electric brands can do DTC by law and likewise with dealershups. It's all political lobbying because I think majority of people no matter political side would agree with you. People forget dealerships are mostly privately owned/franchised and NOT from the manufacturer themselves. They're an expensive middleman. As far as the manufacturers, their vehicles are already considered SOLD when the dealerships buy them. These MSRP markups need to stop, its highway robbery... but people keep biting the carrot and don't like hassling with well trained sales staff and give in. If no on paid the high markups, no one would be charging them. There is no such thing as a "pretty good deal" paying anything above MSRP.
I have a Kia carnival and one of the most ingenious things about that new symbol is that it grabs the eye and most people want to know what does it mean, and so when I tell them that it means "Kia" they are like "oh my goodness I did not know" and they're even more interested in the brand so in a way of marketing is actually genius.
As long as people keep paying the mark up they will keep charging it. It is not worth it. I would not buy a new car right now unless I was forced to by uncontrollable circumstances such as something drastic happened to my current vehicle. The market will eventually settle out and it will happen sooner if people stop paying the extra mark up money.
@@jdm1039 the auto market won't come back to pre-pandemic figures. That's an illusion. Dealers and manufacturers have learned that people are willing to pay whatever they ask. So why wouldn't they ask exorbitant amounts?
Love the SUV and new Logo. Went to local dealer here in Colorado Springs, CO the other day and were told order only with 4-6 months for deliver and oh by the way they are charging $10-15 above MSRP. No way in hell I'm paying $10-15K over MSRP!
I literally got a telluride for 3k markup. I thought prices came down for everyone. Did i just get lucky? I do understand that the 2023 refresh is around the corner so naturally the markup on the 22 model should be decreasing as we get closer to the 23 models arriving on dealer lots
I'm very impressed for the interior space and the way it drives. Driving both Telluride & Palisade back to back they both felt identical except for the gear selector. I love the look of the Telluride more. Both are best in value for money. Kia / Hyundai please keep N/A engines. Keep it simple, don't want small turbo engines and make things complicated and potential less life vs a simple N/A engine.
Tell me about it. We had a fully loaded 2016 Hyundai Tucson and the turbo boost went out in it and they could never figure out how to fix the thing. The engine felt like it always had a hitch in it. Complete junk.
You forgot to mention and I say this because I'm very frustrated about it about it because I own one there are No recovery points in front or rear of thus vehicle. Kia has been contacted by several people and have not responded to this but the Hyundai palisade does have recovery points in front and rear. 2nd row heating in cooled captain seats
“The look and finish look like something out of a much more expensive car!” Dealers know that and charge you $20K more for a Kia so you end up paying the price of a BMW.
I’m waiting for the 2023 model. Although I will still be very happy with the 2022. I’m just hoping for a full digital speedo and a true panoramic sunroof in the new one. Im not holding my breath, but I’d love the v6 from the stinger in the telluride.
For a "large" SUV, they're surprising smallish looking in person to me...not that I have a problem with that, it was just something unexpected, especially for a three seater. They still look nice though.
One idea to differentiate the Kia from it’s Palisade cousin might be to change top end focus. Perhaps have one geared more towards off roading, while the other geared more towards street / luxury duty. Overall it’s a nice package. Good exterior (though I really wish they kept the prototype front end) great interior, and great value for the money. Too bad they are selling so well. The markups on these have been absurd.
Awasome SUV, I work for a dealer outside US, one of our customers got one out and after 3 months he damaged the transmission. Now waiting for the replacement gearbox to arrive from Alabama for the last 65 days. Why does it take so long man!!
Not sure what you meant by "Korean car reliability", according to Alex on Autos Auto Buyers Guide Live video looks like Telluride / Palisade would be more reliable than something like a Honda Pilot. I think Kia & Hyundai has improved significantly nowadays.
@@LionRunner lol @ “Korean car reliability”. I just sold my Genesis GV80 back to the dealership after 1 year of ownership and 14,000 kms. It was beautiful but not something I would call reliable or anything near reliable. Those Hyundai V6 engines are trash!
This def is not a giant SUV. Midsize class 100%. There are many full-size SUVs that are clearly bigger. She is tiny and maybe makes this car look bigger than it really is. I wish it were bigger myself.
The old KIA logo always had me thinking of the time KIA's designs were inspired by Ford models. Even the logo seemed very similar. I believe the change in the logo comes at abright time now that KIA is establishing its own identity, for good or bad, as proven over the last years. The Telurride, EV6, K5, and the Carnival are the best examples for me. I think the Sportage has an amazing interior, but the front end does not match the rest of the design and it will not be even close to becoming a classic like the Telluride will be. The old Sorento seemed more practical to me, the new one has some quirks that I just can't pass (front end, the "shark" chrome accent behind the second doors, and although the interiornis not bad, it seems to be inspired in somenoldncars from the 70's. The current KIA Soul gai!ed points in the interior but for me the front and side profiles do not look as good as the previos model.
I agree.. the new sportage was almost a good looking design but something is just funky about it... not sure if itll age good. The interior is might be class leadin though at least heh
Watching a KBB video after a few months. At 00:10, when I noticed that it was Lyn, and not Micah, especially in this rugged attire, I said to myself "there we go again, Lyn trying to be a Micah again". But throughout the rest of the video, she appeared to be very graceful using simple non-catchy english. Loved the video because she was her natural self talking her own pace, not trying to pull a Micah.
times have change. KIA doesn't have to undercut their competition on pricing as much since there is demand for this car. I can only imagine what the dealer mark up may be for this car...
Kia Employees have branded this the “Sell-U-Ride” and dealers have taken to $5-10k markups. Hyundai Corp is warning dealers of a slap on the wrist, but they secretly love the markups… the illusion of scarcity by desire is free marketing.
I ordered a 2022 SXL in July 21 and took del in Nov 21. The price was 56k Canadian and that was it. We dont see the markups here in Canada on the price. And there are no deals. Cant negotiate on a car that isn't in production. Price didn't scare me off. Will look to trade within 2 years to see what it brings. Great car.
Since you asked. I think the new logo looks like it should be on a perfume/cologne bottle. You know... the stuff you spray on before a night of clubbin'. 🤣
If you get a telluride just know if you need your windshield replaced it's 1300..... Insurance will not cover it .... And it's so pricey because of the sensors so take care of them windshields the replacement price is ridiculous
By definition, a crossover combines the attributes of a car with that of a truck. Unfortunately almost all crossovers are more car than truck, the only exceptions being the Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Ford Explorer which shares their engines and transmissions with their truck line
@Damilola Akanni idk this thing doesn't look like a car. From purely a marketing/consumer pov I've understood it to mean car mixed with SUV. Though I can see what you mean if car and suv are technically the same in ths context
Lol.... I'm still not completely "sold" on this one. Hyundai & Kia have made some improvements the last few yrs. But even a friends 2020 Sonata, I wasn't thrilled driving it for an hour road trip.
Hopefully a bigger and more suitable engine for its size: an all-new SmartStream G3.5T V6 with 365 HP and a 10spd automatic to let it be much more premium and be another Kia's largest SUV.........after the Borrego
The new logo is the best thing that happened to Kia. The old made it look like a car from the soviet era (like Lada)
Or Chery
Or a BMW

The Kia Telluride is manufactured in West Point, Georgia. A vehicle made in America is a plus for me.

Can’t wait for the EV model
You forgot the Jeep Grand Cherokee L in the competition.
Most reliable in class, vs least reliable American brand 🤣
I think the automotive industry needs to introduce and “affordability assist” that doesn’t result in 5 year car loans…..
New Kia logo is phenomenal I hope ford does the same it’s so boring and basic looking but what more do expect from a ford
still basically a mini van underneath...
Exactly
They all are. Didn't you know?
@@canadabear72 My Jeep GC is not
@@michael2275 That's true. And neither is the Explorer. I was referring to the main competitors.
Hopefully a bigger and more suitable engine for its size:
an all-new SmartStream G3.5T V6 with 365 HP and a 10spd automatic
to let it be much more premium and be another Kia's largest SUV.........after the Borrego
I like the new logo, but I hate that it doesn't get blacked out with the nightfall package, whereas the old logo did. Why, Kia, why?
