r/KiaTelluride

Hey I got a 2024 Telluride SX X-Line for 39,999 OTD price. Just wondering if you guys think I got a good deal?

EDIT: 24.5k miles and certified pre owned so the warranties carry over

Me and my wife are between Telluride and Palisade. She leans Palisade, I lean Telluride. For Telluride, we’d go XLine SX hybrid. For Palisade, we’d go SEL Premium Hybrid. Don’t want to go higher on Palisade because of the third row folding seats. I know they fixed via recall, but it’s still a hard no.

From a tech package, you get way more for you buck on the Palisade. Looking at low $50s on Palisade, mid $50s on the Telluride.

For those that looked at both - what pushed you one way or the other. Are there any maintenance issues we need to be worried about? Any quirky features on either one - good or bad? I’ve been over the features on both, but I’m probably overlooking something. We’ve test driven both.

The interior on Palisade definitely feels more luxury-leaning, but to me it kind of feels like a really upscale minivan. Nothing overly “cool” about it. Where to me the telluride stands out in a crowd.

Help! Need to decide by the end of the month.

Interested in a prestige SX telluride non x line. If you have this model can you let me know how much you paid NOT including or before sales tax and not considering any trade in? Total all in out the door price? TIA

Has anyone successfully removed their roof rails? Ours will never be used and I think it will make a nice look. Curious off anyone has removed theirs and what’s involved…hopefully it doesn’t require dropping the entire headliner

Waiting for the new year to upgrade my '23 and hoping the '28s will be rolling out then. I looked into what changed in the '21 after the '20 debuted and it was:

• Nightfall Edition on EX (AWD) and SX trims, adding a black finish grille, unique black 20-inch wheels, gloss-black roof rails, dark headlight/fog light bezels, and black badging.
• New Paint Colors: Wolf Gray was introduced (exclusive to the Nightfall Edition), alongside color availability tweaks for other trims.

Thoughts on what we might see on '28s? I'm hoping for at least tan/brown interior options on higher end models as I want an HEV X-Line SX-P with Jade Green but really want a tan interior.

I purchased a 2024 telluride S, and quickly realized that one of mu DRL was white and one amber. Called the dealership and they said it looks like they did it and have had my car for over a month now trying to replace it. The body shop they are contracted with told them they can’t get the correct color amber light.

It shouldn’t be this hard to get the correct light?! They’ve officially had the car longer than I’ve had it.

I’m eyeing a new ride for work where I’ll be driving across state. I’m looking for the most luxurious line, but the Kia website is a bit tricky to navigate when comparing what lines offer what to justify the price. For the long car rides , it’s only myself in the car. Otherwise I need a rear facing car seat and space for my knees if I’m passenger and my wife is driving the car. From what I gather, the x-pro prestige may be best for off roading, but I’ll be doing none of that. I just need something safe to drive in some snow or rainy conditions. Am I making the best value choice for my needs?

Shattered the rear windshield on my new 2027 HEV x-line SX. Just got told the OEM part is on back order after waiting two weeks with it “en route”. Very frustrating.

Has anyone had luck getting this from Kia? Should I just ask a repair co for non-OEM?

Anyone got any discount on MSRP or is it's out of question given the demand ? What was your final OTD EX/SX/SX Prestige Hybrid Trim.

My wife and I are looking into leasing our next family vehicle and are looking at a brand new Kia Telluride. Does anyone here have any major do’s and don’ts when it comes to leasing? We have never leased a vehicle before.

We are still in our preliminary search on the vehicle but would appreciate any first hand insight on the vehicle, safety specs, weird kinks you’ve come across etc. As of right now, we like the hybrid EX AWD.

We have not test driven anything yet. Before this, we bought a VW atlas but don’t get me started on all the issues we ran into with the vehicle. We will be trading it in.

We have two kiddos under 5 and are interested in captain seats.

Appreciate all the assistance from y’all and thanks in advance :))

Why do I have to click 2 buttons (user agreement button AND a start button) in the car software every time I start the car?!! What an unnecessary hassle! I should just click that I agree 1 time and then it should just launch right up. Very clunky UX. We have a Tesla also and there no agreement buttons at every start. Come on Kia, you did such a good job with the car; just put a little more thought into the software.

Also speaking of comparing with the Tesla, the model 3 can provide autopilot at any speed. Kia Telluride won’t work at under 20mph.

The Kia Telluride came out 3 years after the Tesla model 3 but the software feels 5-10 years older.

What gives?!?

I think that they went overboard with the nanny features on the vehicle. I do like these features, but have the vehicle beeping at me be cause I'm stroking my beard or hold a soda cup to my mouth too long and turn off cruise control over it is stupid...
