• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

2023 Kia Telluride Discussion

Indeed, best info we've officially seen yet: The All-New 2023 Kia Telluride | Mid-Size SUV | Kia

It's still in the "receive updates" option and no builder yet, but we're getting close, folks!
I noticed that in the pictures which show the X-Pro interior, the glove box and grab handles are also wrapped in leather (or perhaps leatherette?). Makes the cabin look more luxurious. Wonder if that is only if you go Nappa.
 
2023 looks so good.
Depends on the trim. X-Line and X-Pro with the gunmetal front and rear bumper accents, different grill, and the better wheels look very nice. The rest is meh.

It does not appear to be finished in materials that are any different than it currently is.

The only difference is they’re letting the color extend beyond the seats, doors, and armrest.

Here’s 2020 vs 2023:

Good catch! I’m going to upgrade from a 2022 EX to a 2023 SX and no heated steering wheel would be a dealbreaker. Love that thing.
May I ask what attracts your eyeballs to get the 2023 SX over the 2022 EX?

I like SX just to get out of the cheap instrument cluster in s or ex. Or I have too if there is an option to swap out that with the one from sx.

It’s mostly to just get all the added bells and whistles going from a 22 EX to 23 SX. Like most people here, I’m hesitant of the new 23MY styling but I’m willing to give it a chance. There’s no doubt though that the 23 SX has WAY more tech and goodies than a 22 EX.

And all of that said, I’m only going to trade up if it still makes financial sense at the time of the trade. If I can still basically erase the majority of the car payments I made last year with the sale of the EX then I’ll do it. Otherwise, I’ll keep the 22 EX as it’s an amazing car.

Is it possible to open both sunroofs of the telluride 2023 or just still only the front?

It’ll be just the front one that opens, as it has been.
 
Thought that would have changed
I don’t know how it could. People already complain that they don’t think the standard sunroof opens far enough. I doubt the rear one would be able to open even halfway before it would hit the shark fin antenna. Or they’d have to split it into two panes of glass and only have the front part slide open.
