2021 Tellurides some prices and ETAS.

Wonder how many SWP '21s they're gonna produce before they switch to the new glacier white?
 
Since we are all in the wondering mood today - I wonder when we find out about the Blackout edition and Wolf...

patience is a virtue but come on KIA!
 
Blackout supposed to be "late availability." Like the Fall?

That's fine but they would miss out on extra $$$ when KFOS opens up by not sharing the details beforehand. Just saying.

I don't think many of us waiting to get our order into KFOS are going to sit tight for more details about the Blackout Ed, or new color...especially if we fear a second wave is coming late Fall/Winter.

Is there an actual source for this? The 2021 official KIA materials mention "September 2020" for Wolf Gray but there is no timeline mention for the Blackout package.
 
Even Kdealer is not showing Dates on when the Black out or wolf gray or what it looks like! It shows
EXTERIOR • All-new Black Edition Package available on the EX Premium AWD*, SX AWD*, and SX-P • LED Headlights now available on the EX Premium Package • New Wolf Gray exterior color (available in September 2020) • New Glacier White exterior color replaces Snow White Pearl

Black Edition Option (Requires AWD* and Premium Package), MSRP*: TBD • Black Edition exclusive 20-inch Black Finish alloy wheels (Black Edition, C-Type) with dark chrome lug nuts and black wheel caps • Black Edition exclusive Kia logo (front and rear) • Black Edition exclusive radiator grille in Black finish • Black headlight bezels • Gloss Black roof rails* • Gloss Black window surround molding • Gloss Black skid plates (front and rear) • Gloss Black front bumper air ducts • Gloss Black lower-door garnish • Gloss Black exterior emblems
 
Do you think New Glacier White exterior color replacing Snow White Pearl will be something happening later in the year as well? I see the 2021 are still Pearl on the Window Sticker, I thought it was going to be once 2021 started production. Maybe they have paint to use up LOL Just curious

My theory is the 2020s KIA converted to 2021s before the "retooling" of the factory to 2021 production will be SWP. After these orders are filled the colors will change.
I say this because that's exactly what happened to ours. ETA within the next month for it so if/when the VIN lookup site scrapes the window sticker we'll see. But I'd imagine the true 2021s coming sometime in August/September will have the new colors available to them.
 
That makes a lot of sense, we have a SPW with an ETA of 7/31, so I was just curious at this point it can purple and I wouldn’t care LOL
 
As I understand it, we should be getting all of the '21 updates, just the color will be SWP. I can live with that. 👍
 
As of now all 2020s that were pushed to 2021 show SWP. not Glacier White Pear GWP.

That was my (definitely uneducated) guess as well - the changes like remote start were easy enough to implement so that they could spit out both 2020's and 2021's with minimal fuss. Things like new colors and the blacked out parts will wait until the book on 2020 closes.

You know what else should've waited? The measly $100 added to the color. Hahaha Little more salt in the wound, thanks KIA. Just keep the incentives the same for July at least!
 
My dealer not providing any answers to my questions. I have been emailing the sales manager about every 10 days. He ignores the specific questions about whether I can review my order that they supposedly submitted in February to make sure that everything I requested will be on the new order. He claims that he knows nothing but I can see that a 2021 is on the lookup for his dealership as of today. I was hoping that this was a dealer that was up front and honest but perhaps I am wrong I can't tell if they are uniformed or evasive. He can't or wont tell me if my order even went in for the 2020 MY only that they got a cancellation call several weeks ago and I would be placed on a wait list for 2021. Looks like everything built as of today are 2021 and all with black interior. Black interior must be a supply side item that is readily available.
 
I appreciate your name Passing Time. The VIN that popped up today does it match exactly what you ordered? If so odds are its yours. Frustrating not getting information so maybe if no word by end of this week, show up Monday and ask to speak with the GM. Emails and phone calls are easily dismissed unfortunately, however they can be tracked for accountability. GL
