2022 Telluride S in Gravity Grey

@gman1868 - Do you have any additional photos of the 2022 dark moss that you could post? Thanks.

I just looked online, in the facepoop groups and google image search.

Are those the rims that came with the 22 EX Premium? In other words, are they black now?

No, they are 20x9 Niche wheels I had on my 2020 and took off when I traded it in

 

[TELLUFIED 3.8]

Those look like some Mazda rims taken off another car and put on the Telluride. Ex premium still have the same rims as last year

The emblem on the wheel is actually the K badge but I will take off and just leave the Niche emblem on.

I love the new grill. Just the right amount of black, with the polished chrome elsewhere. Old style was too shiny and I didn't like the texture, which is why I ordered a NF. If I was ordering today, I think I might go with non-NF Dark Moss.

Agreed, the front grill looks good now. I didn’t care for the ‘21 non-NFE grill (or the rear undercarriage) so that was the main reasons I went with nightfall. With the current black grill I would likely just order non-nightfall.

I like the new grille also. I wonder if that ‘22 front grill could be swapped out for a ‘20.

He even mentions that someone from the forum wanted to know some stuff about it.. lumbar support at 5:59 mark

looks great!!

Can you show the dash on the S model and how they’ve incorporated the larger screen? Is it the faux wood piece as on EX and SX, or is it more silver plastic?

Who wants to be the first person to buy a 2022 grill and install it on your 2021?

I would but unfortunately the listing I pulled these images from is no longer listed. I'll see if I can find another one, it is still the silver plastic like before.

Thanks! Big upgrade for S and LX.

Thanks! Big upgrade for S and LX.

Agreed! That a major improvement that makes it feel much nicer on the lower trims.

Dunno if I’d be the first but it’s crossed my mind…

I traded my 20 telluride in last night and bought the 22 still getting use to the new KIA badge. It’s a brush silver finish. This is a EX premium

The new EX premium is coming with black wheels? It looks good. Congrats!

It’s not. Those are aftermarket. All wheels on the 2022s are the same as before, save for the logo on the center caps.

I would have expected them to black the logo out on a Nightfall. As-is that does not look good.

I picked up my 2022 Telluride which is moss green with the Nightfall package. We were excited that all of the logos and trim would be blacked out. I was surprised (in a bad way) to see a shiny silver "Kia" logo on the front grill and rear when I picked it up yesterday. This is a very disappointing decision that Kia made to put this silver logo on the nightfall package vehicle , IMO.

I don't mind the new logo itself, just not a fan of mixing in chrome on an otherwise blacked out vehicle (silver lug nuts too ). The logo reminds me of the Nine Inch Nails logo!

*Update - just looked at the logo in the light and added some pics. The new “Kia” logo is molded into the plastic grill, so the only option will be to black out or replace with a blacked out logo of the same style. White Kia logo and silver lug nuts on the nightfall package wheels are sloppy and take away from the blacked out aesthetics. Rear logo and body panels lines doesn’t bother me at all, except that it is silver and not black!

Hopefully someone will start selling a smaller black chromed or gloss black logo to swap the back.
Hope some entrepreneur with this capability sees this!

Yes!!! I would just really love a smaller emblem, I really think that’s all it will take to make this “work” - that and I did order the previous years “telluride” lettering because I thought it was dumb that they shrank it
