2023 Kia Telluride S Review - What's New For 2023?

[@mark_u]

The distinctive amber DRLs are missed but removing the T E L L U R I D E decal on the hood was the right move. I still think that the Palisade has the better looking interior :)

[@damilolaakanni]

I'm pretty sure the only offering in this segment with a CVT is the Subaru Ascent. Most of the rest have 8, 9 or in Ford's case, a 10 speed automatic transmission.

Not a bad Telluride so far. Love everything about this Telluride, but the rims are god awfully hideous.

[@noahh.8737]

i like the way the palisade looks way more than the telluride honestly

[@keytothegate68]

Do you get heated steering wheel with this model? A sunroof?

[@davidwashington9623]

Just bought this model and the only think I don't like are the wheels. I'm taking them to get powder coated all black this week for way cheaper then buying new rims.

[@DaQuan-Boyd]

How is the car holding up so far? I'm thinking about purchasing the EX model in April and it will be my first car ever.

[@hahahahah8396]

Does this trim have the window shade in the second row?

[@be99cool]

Gs8 or this?

I have a Stinger GT and I get it maintained regularly at my dealer. I've made friends with the guy that sold me the car back in 2018. He said Tellurides are selling more used than they are new and they never have enough. I saw 2 lists of names written on his office window. One for backorders.... and one for the waiting list for back orders. I see them everywhere in my area. They are going for like $50,000. This thing is selling like hot cakes.

Total facts I was told the same thing by a KIA salesman just the other day

[@anthonythompson4718]

Yea this is the dealership that tried to rob me 7k over MSRP and not let me test drive the new K5 because they said it was no gas!!! This is a low down dog dealership!!!! Guess what I left when to Southlake Kia in Indiana and bought a brand new 2022 Kia K5 the exact one I wanted with no markups and guess what they put gas in it so I could test drive it. People don’t go to this dealership u have been warned!!!

[@baconatorsupreme5165]

looks like they matched it up to the palisade interior

[@brianlee9233]

I know right?

[@baconatorsupreme5165]

@@brianlee9233 yea the telluride being its sister vehicle was more cheap looking

[@paperboy8865]

So disappointed in the refresh! Hideous wheels, STILL no dual exhaust and a bland choice of colors. Sadly I’m really glad I have tremendous residual value in my 2020 S which will help me trade it for a more attractive choice this summer! Thanks Kia for 3 great years but your lackluster design team won’t keep me in a Kia this time.

[@auntbarbara5576]

New cars make me want my 1988 Accord back. Badly.

[@Shane-mt9hb]

How do you get the S with a bench seat?

[@jasoncrinklaw4255]

Those wheels are *atrocious* . . . 🧐 🤭 🤢 🤮 | | | 🔻 *understatement*

[@chuckwalla2967]
