I wouldn't go by these photos folks. We shall see.

Why not?

Bulldog Kia basically confirmed they are real with KiaMotors copied on the message...

I get it...it's social media but why would they lie and say yup they are true.

BTW they have 6 SX AWDs in line right now for 21's once KFOS opens up so they aren't gaining much from lying...albeit getting some attention...

 

[TellTastic]

I don’t see why these couldn’t be real. They don’t look doctored and I don’t see why there’d be a reason to misguide the public on what’s coming.
that said, its not like I’m going to be the one to Retweet (or whatever) the images haha

This is not correct the KIA logos are not the same they will be back!!!!

 

[Ponopride]

i wonder what they mean by Black Edition needs AWD and Premium Package. So a Black Edition SX is only an option if you get the AWD and the Prestige Package?

 

[Familyman20]

To me it reads from the training material posted here that there will be separate emblems that read 'black edition' which will probably be placed on the front doors, and the KIA logos front and back will be tinted black. KIA logos pictured here already look darker, I just don't see the BE emblems

For prestige package you need AWD yes. Top of the line Telluride basically. Every available option = BE minus some dealer installed options of course

The Premium Package is on the EX.. so on a EX you have to get AWD and Premium Package.
On the SX you just have to have AWD. So can be with or without Prestige Package.

I get that you need the premium package. THAT makes sense. Requiring AWD doesn't meet the sanity check to me. it is what it is though!

KIA isn't having any problems selling premium trims - as the AWD EX and SX are huge sellers. Keeping it to AWD models will help control demand.

Does anyone know if there will be any changes on the inside of the Black Edition?

• Black Edition exclusive radiator grille in black finish
• Black headlight and fog light 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
• Body-color door handles

does anyone know if the black skid plates on the Nightfall Edition are the same as the optional accessory that exist now, just pretty much colored black? Having metal skid plates on the underside would be an added bonus on that package for off-road use.

 

[Familyman20]

I believe they never did release the off roading skid plate. Could be wrong tho but there's a bunch of threads here with a KIA part number but no availability or actual pics of it.
The ones they're referring to in this Nightfall edition are just the pieces of the lower bumpers. You can see they're painted black in the recently posted dealer training docs.

Kinda looks legit but so far.... not a fan.
