2022 Kia Telluride! What to expect.

[Lionbreath]

I haven't heard of adaptive headlights on 21 SX Telly?

Definitely dimming side mirrors would be up at the top. Also wireless Android Auto. However, my my knowledge, the price is increasing $1500 for 22's and there are no notable changes.

Lefty, I'm with you on the wireless connections for Android/Apple, I'd pay extra for that. I used the wrong terminology for adaptive headlights, should have been "high-beam-assist" rather than "adaptive". My bad. I drive an Infinity sedan that moves the headlights in a turn which I understand is adaptive headlights. Driving my M35 for years and now my wife's Telly I find little advantage using adaptive headlights. I could forgo that option. Thanks for the catch!

Just ordered mine yesterday from a very popular NC dealer. I was told to expect a 5 month wait.

An article on IndigoCars said the 2022's price would be jacked up another $1500 across the board. If thats the case, and my car takes 5 months to build, that would mean I would have to pay the upcharge. I probably won't do so, so a Telly SX might become available.

I probably just made the cutoff. I’m likely getting a 2021 but would prefer a newer 2022 model.

Why? It's highly likely that the 2022s will be essentially unchanged, but will cost $1500 more. What's the point of getting a '22 if you have to pay substantially more for the same thing?

I’d like the opportunity to get the newer model with modern badges and other updates.

From 2020 to 2021, there were very few changes BUT folks transitioned into model year 2021 had opportunities for Nightfall Edition, additional color choices (Wolf Gray), armrest changes, new advanced key fob, etc.

Why not get the latest and greatest, especially considering the badging changes? Also, the newer model year will be worth more on the back end with KBB.

Do you like your illuminated scuff plates? Just pre-ordered my Telly and added this option sight unseen. Would you buy them again if you had it to do over? thnx
