What did you pay for your KIA Telluride?

Just bought 2024 Telluride Grey S FWD Sunroof Mats MSRP $40,300...paid $38,300 otd plus State Fees ($500 SC sales tax and $55 title fee, along with about $350 County Tax to get permanent plate later). A discount off MSRP of $2000.

There are hundreds of Tellurides on the lots in SC and most other places, push for a discount from MSRP without paying Dealer add on options and free money for paperwork!

Kia Corp is discounting off MSRP, so make the dealer pass it on to you...

Adding a correction with final paperwork in hand...

2024 Telluride Grey S FWD Sunroof Mats MSRP $40,300...$38,283 otd plus State expenses. The Dealers makes the numbers so confusing (on purpose) that it is hard to factor all together.

This amounts to $2017 below MSRP with free upgrades to All Weather Mats, Door and Handle Scratch Protection Film and Dealer Matching Tint on Front Side Windows. The Dealer wanted $1799 for these originally. My value for these Dealer Add-ons is about $400...so adding it into MSRP, about $2417 below MSRP is how I view the deal.

Even better deals are coming this summer as lots fill up with Telluride. Contact many dealers and hold your ground. Think 2-3k below MSRP or more for higher trim levels.
 
$17k for a 2021 nightfall with 31k miles. Found it at auction with a light hit in the front. Only expensive damage was the steering wheel air bag that was $1k the rest bumper, grill was really cheap to fix. After the repair costs tax, license etc I was done for around $21k. It does have a branded title, but if I can drive it for at least 100k miles over the next 5 years it's like I'm paying $333 a month.

Basic insurance or can you even fully cover it? Wondering on price to even insure it. 🤔

Full coverage.. some insurance companies guage you like AAA. I use wawanessa and never had an issue. Since I own 6 cars it's really cheap.

If you don’t mind me asking. What’s cheap? I have full coverage as well through StateFarm and pay $100 a month.
 
The local Kia Dealer that barely had 14 cars when I was interested in purchasing, currently has 45 Tellurides! I'm sure they're still not giving them away!
 
Just got a 2024 SX-P X-L over the weekend for $50,768 grand total out-the-door (purchase) in metro-Atlanta all in.
Dealer had one of the few terra cotta interior cars.

Got $3k off MSRP + zeroed out 'crapware' add-on's + full trade allowance ($1.2k above what they originally offered [total tax savings was $1.6k in state tax]). Car had $1,015 in 'options' (paint, seats, fancy mats), state tax ($2k), extortion doc fees ($998 !!!!), registration, and state fees.

I've tried this before. With emissions, gauge conversion, and other things - it's 100% not worth it.
Especially for NL.
Even if you're in the military.

Not much less - there hasn't been that much inventory that they're dropping $10k off the price. And 2025 are a slow burn from what I can see.
I got $3k+ off - see above - the SX (non-prestige) was more like $4k off - in late August.
Hasn't moved much since then, since the 2024 and 2025 are nearly identical.

Paid $43500 before taxes for 1 year old Certified Used 2024 Telluride SX XPro Prestige with 22K miles on it (lease return). Unexpectedly only had one key FOB and didn't haggle further as I thought it would be much less to get a replacement. If you are getting used, or new make sure you get two with at least one key physical key. 2024 Key Fobs are $330 + $200 programming. Physical key (for lockouts on dead battery) were not included in that and will be key blank (unknown cost) + $25 key cutting. So round numbers, count on $400 to $600 for new fobs / keys.

I will note that I regret my purchase at this point. Dealing with the brands sales and service (had open safety recalls) has been horrible over the 4 weeks. I had a larger rant here, but it wouldn't post.

Happy Tuesday. - Frustrated Kia Telluride owner who hopes this will turn around and I will love it, but for the time being - I would advise anyone and everyone to avoid the brand.

I ended up paying $3k off MSRP on a 2024 EX. $1500 was a financing bonus that I will pay off asap.

As the 2025's are hitting the lots, dealers have to do whatever to make room. For anyone in the market it's a great time to buy. Where might " near me " be, in case someone is looking ??

Arapahoe Kia in Colorado. I got something like $3,500 off msrp a year ago on prestige xline. Another dealership about 10 miles north in Denver was only selling for $3k over msrp. Even in the same area you need to shop around.

Could you please post which area? I'm seeing $4500 off in the Bay Area, CA but wouldn't mind making a trip.
 
56k out the door on a 24 SX Prestige X-Line in an area with 10.5% tax. Basically about 5K off and didn’t pay for the low jack or paint protection
