2021 Official Training Material

I thinks it’s just the ability to turn the DRLs on or off independent of the headlamps?

The video said, “Turning on the side lights, turns on the positioning lights.” I am guessing side lights are parking lights. So maybe the “LED positioning lights” are just the DRLs but they are lit in a different type of mode.

View attachment 7493 You think the 2020 remotes can be upgraded to remote start feature. Would be a nice feature to have.View attachment 7494View attachment 7495View attachment 7496View attachment 7497View attachment 7498View attachment 7499View attachment 7500

Yes looks like a Typo. On this spec page for wheels shows 20 on the FWD SX

Lets hope that is a typo. I don't want the black out package...but 20" wheels are a requirement. The Telluride looks weak without the 20" wheels. Getting the SX Prestige.

Interesting....looks like they are opening up the Dune Brown interior on more exterior colors on the prestige trim.

You got the update here first!

If we’ve ordered and still have no eta or vin, will it be made into a 2021?

Yes your dealer will need to reenter your order as a 2021 when it becomes available to do so.

Yes looks like demand was there to add to all colors.

Looks like the Wolf Gray start of Production is September so will come to stores around October/November..

We are sticking with Gravity Gray - so hopefully we can get in as soon as KFOS opens up.

Do you think 2020 can be retrofitted for this? Thanks for the info.

Thank you for the information. I am glad my 2020 was cancelled with these updates it will be worth the wait. I have been told that I am first on the list at my dealer as I was apparently the top of the list when my 'order' cancelled. We'll see how that works out! I had the Snow White Pearl on order, any idea what the new Glacier White color looks like?

Same here. I was picked up for a 2020 allocation in March and then at the last minute my allocation was pulled and I was put 1st in line for a 2021. So glad it worked out that way. While I doubt I will be towing much - having the proper connection and having the remote start on the key fob are worth the delay.

LED Positioning Lamps on my 2020 KIA Sportage are the DRLs. They cannot be turned off, at least on my vehicle. They are cool though!

It’s possible.. keep in mind there a 3rd party companies like CarToys that can update your current Key to remote start where you simply hit the lock button three times and it remote starts.

Sangria with dune brown would've been pretty sharp. If they ever get the red leather interior with the wolf grey exterior I might have to trade ours in one day on the wife. It'd be worth the ass chewing! Haha

Thank you for all that information Stephen - Some questions, but I know (cause men say what they know and don't hold anything back) I will have to wait until more info coming from KIA <G>...

 

[zhelder]

So, now that we got the Telluride info, anybody got an in with a Hyundai dealer so we can find out about the 2021 Palisade? The Palisade forums ain’t got no info, and are blown out of the water by this board!

 

[SSam]

Anyone who has access to Equivalent info on the Canada 2021 Trims?

 

[Yoftheg]

Any example of the Wolf gray?
