Great review. I’ve had my SX AWD Telluride since Halloween and I am very happy with it. I do not use the auto open feature on the back hatch because it will try to open when I am walking behind it and my garage door is closed. It has been cold lately so I need to close the garage door to take my daughters inside if they are asleep. I traded in a 2019 Volvo XC60 for a Telluride. Still love the Volvo but I needed more space and this is easier to move around in than the XC90 with a more useable 3rd row at a lot lower price. Of course, the quality of the materials are not the same as Volvo’s but it is still a great buy because of all the features the Telluride comes with. Not that it matters but I have received more compliments on the Telluride than I did on the Volvo. People cannot believe it is a Kia. I have had retail store employees walk past it at store pick up spots because they are looking for a Kia. I had to ask them who they were looking for. 😂 Some friends did wonder why I downgraded but once they see it they understand. I will never put on the “other” Kia badges on. Not judging people who do but I don’t get that. I drive a lot and I only get about 360 miles per fill up where I would get closer to 410 with the Volvo. They both have similar mpg. It feels odd to only pay $28 to fill up because it only needs 87 but I would prefer to pay a little more and gas up a little less often. I am averaging 20.8 mpg. But overall, all of the extra cargo space is worth it.

I have a 2020, but had to get the second highest model, the EX. The top model wasn’t in stock anywhere. I have one major intermittent problem, though. At times, on start-up, the dash lights up with alerts that none of my safety guidance systems are working. Upon a restart, it’s okay, but sometimes it takes two or three restarts. Very annoying, but it’s very intermittent. Also, because I’m so stupid, I can’t figure out how to set it up so the dome lights come on when I open the door, and if I put a destination into the GPS, I can only pause the route. Where the hell is the cancel route function? One more thing: I’m an old fart (64), and have a long history of minor panic attacks. Nothing serious, but one of the times I would kind of freeze up and sense one coming on is when passing an 18-wheeler on the highway. Well, it’s exactly a year since I got the Telluride, and not one single instance of this. It’s just an effin’ pleasure to drive.

This car is amazing she has been averaging 25 mpg FWD not AWD. This truly feels and drives like a luxury vehicle. I tore this car apart for months to find something wrong. I love everything about this suv. I seriously could not find 1 thing i hated. Worth every penny!!!

First year production? I lived it in 2021 when I placed an order for a Ford Maverick. Ordered in November, received in April 2022. This is the Ecoboost XL. The thing gets GREAT gas mileage as a gas engine. Typically doing 26-28mpg city and 30-33 highway. Love my Maverick, but should have ordered the 4K tow package because I now tow a small cargo trailer. I feel like I'm pushing the 2000lb weight limit with my trailer that weighs about 1500lbs all-in, but the truck pulls like it's not even there. Going to pay it off and make some considerations for future vehicles. The Telluride is on my radar. Do good things, Kia. When you reach the point where you can out-build the Japanese giants, you'll know you've truly made it as a company. DON'T BE MITSUBISHI.

This is the first SUV that I've bought that I have no buyer's remorse whatsoever. Not only does it look good but for the money, no other SUV comes close. The model previewed was closer to the top model. We got ours for $37k. They are(or were) in extreme demand so it took us about 2mos of waiting for the model we wanted.
