Todays rant... Color choices, or lack of?

[Audioi]

Is it just me or why are there so few color choices?

Lets see we have white, silver thats really blue then dark gray that also looks blue then 4 flavors of black. I have seen lots of colors come from Kia that would look nice on here instead of the various shades of black.

I really like the pastel colors that Audi and Porsche have , agree the Telly is pretty limited

Part of the reason I liked the Hyundai Palisade better is because they had a nice Blue color. Hopefully next years model they offer better colors.

I put a short msg in their comment box last week about how it would be nice to have a metallic blue option on the Telluride like the "Gravity Blue" offered on the Cadenza. Someone actually did reply, nicely, saying that it isn't happening anytime soon.

Sangria? Moss? Maybe add a blue but other than that I feel like it is pretty well covered.

I think anything bright or pastel-ish would've looked like hell on the Telly. Someone with photoshop skills and some free time should work some magic

I'm not saying bright , pastel is semi matte .............................................https://www.carsales.com.au/editori...cially-the-coolest-car-colour-of-2017-108213/

I like dolphin gray or porch paint colors, at least they are light and show what few body lines the telly has.

I like the color choices, but don't like some of the limited combos. I really wanted Everlasting Silver (I like the bluish tint) + Dune Brown (a must after seeing it in person)...but had to settle for Moss Green + Dune Brown (which still looks awesome...but I think the silver/blue + brown would look amazing). FYI, only exterior colors available for Dune Brown interior are white, black, moss, and black copper (which I saw in person and is impossible to distinguish from black unless it's sitting next to a black car on a sunny day). For several exterior colors (including Everlasting Silver) you can only choose black interior.

Plain old silver metallic would have been more my choice or gray metallic. Not a fan of blue unless its really blue. Everyone has personal preferences but the choices do seem limited to me. If I buy another Porsche they will make it any color I choose for a mere $11k additional so why am I complaining?

I agree I was thinking the silver would be silver not dark grey - I worry about stone chips on hood showing up real fast

The "Silver" is a light bluish silver. The darker grey is called "Gravity Grey."

Thanks, one is a steal and one I took on a dry day. These seem to be the wife's choice and since its going to be her car then its a go if I can find one on the loose.

I like those both colors fro pictures! Definitely wouldn’t go black. Moss is cool and white doesn’t look good on Telly.

I'm going to be in the market for a new SUV soon. The Telluride and the Suburu Ascent are at the top of my list. Right now, the only reason the Ascent is ahead is because it's available in a very nice Red. As for the colors on the Telluride, The Moss Green is cool, but not for me. The White doesn't look good to me. I don't like silver/gray on any vehicle. I currently drive a black SUV and want a new color on my next SUV.

I've seen photos of the Telluride in Sangria Red, and that looks great. However, that color doesn't seem to actually be available. Hopefully KIA is monitoring this forum and the like. This seems to be a great vehicle. I look forward to eventually test-driving one along with the Ascent. It just needs better colors.

Sangria is available on most trim levels, just not on the SX according to KIA's website.
