Order to delivery time

Just ordered mine today with an estimate of 80-90 days. The dealer told me go test drive at another dealer, then come back and order @ MSRP. I did just that. The test dealer that I went to (selling at $8-$10k over MSRP) said they didn't even take orders, they were at the mercy of what shipments came in and they never knew what they would get or when...seems a bit odd one can order and another cannot. Anyways, in 2-3 months I'll part of the club ;)

SX-GWP/Dune brown, nightfall/prestige with a few added options. The wife will be driving around in style!
 
My dealer informed me that my Telly came in today! Picking it up later this week!

Order placed with deposit = 6/18 (was 14th order of the day in KWD)
VIN generated in Failcat = 7/6
Delivered to dealer = 7/27
Planned pickup = 7/30


So less than 6 weeks from order.

6 weeks, that's amazing! What did the dealership originally estimate? Enjoy your Telluride!

Nationwide Kia (MD004) originally quoted me 3-4 months back in June. I sent them a print out of the configuration i wanted for the Kia Telluride builder site and asked them for an OTD price. Ordered it at MSRP with $500 document and $332 dealer fees. So with MD tax (6%) included, paying $55,100.
 
My telluride has been sitting at dealership for 10 days now, I live in MA and bought from RI, taking forever to get it registered, sucks.

that's terrific. fingers crossed that happens for others still waiting. I'm sort of regretting not getting the SX. I ordered EX w/prem AWD +towing in Sangria w/grey woodgrain interior. I'm hoping it's not too unusual that it takes longer. Seems the Sangria isn't too popular. eek! :oops:

I ordered an SX AWD w/tow in Sangria. My dealer told me 3-5 months with 5 months being on the very long end. He said color is never an issue with cars taking longer, so I’m not worried. And as far an Sangria not being as popular, look at it as you’ll be more “special” or one of a kind. Too many black, gray, white, and silver cars in the world. Spice it up a little bit. 😉 No offense to all of those other colors out there.
 
Wow, great turnaround time! Here's to hoping I get similar time.

I ordered on July 10, 2022 over the phone from Arapahoe Kia in Denver, Colorado. Today I was told I am 14th in line currently and my order should get picked up in KFOS in August. :)

How do you know how many you are in line? I ordered mine on June 21st and reached out to my sales guy last week and he doesn't have any info for me. I'm assuming mine will get picked up in August too but should I call the sales manager and ask?

I Have an email string going with the sales manager and my salesman and I just emailed to ask them for status and they told me I was 14th in line and it will get picked up in August.

Thanks. I'll try and pry them more. Frustrating that some dealers/sales staff seem lazy and unwilling to look further into this stuff.

I agree that’s unacceptable! Both my sales person and the sales manager Have responded to every one of my inquiries and silly questions within 12 hours, and always provide a complete response.

Wondering if people can start posting when they ordered and when they received their Kia (or at least the vin).

I ordered an sx prestige with tow on March 13. Nothing yet.

Many of the threads here have gotten hare to follow woth with the side conversations, it would be helpful to just keep this to dates for people’s reference.
I ordered on 3/22/21 was told estimated delivery date was 8/2 three weeks ago. Today I was told it's been pushed out 8/18
 
Picked up the new addition to the family “Telly Savalas” (“who loves ya baby”) today for the dealership!

6 weeks from order to pickup! And at MSRP to boot!

E575B2BF-100D-4614-85FD-B6ADEE5A1300.webp97875981-9D82-484A-B304-C18D693919DD.webp
 
I have ordered mine, Gravity Gray SX Prestige and Towing on 7/22 in Raleigh, NC and I was told the wait time would be anywhere between 4 to 6 months.
Is there a way to check the current wait times?
When can I expect the VIN to be generated?
Can we figure out the order number, so that I can look up on falicat?
