2023 Kia Telluride Discussion

At what trim and upper, does remote start come standard?

On the 22’s they all come with remote start. I’d imagine they all have remote start for the 23.

All of these bad design choices were to make the vehicle compliant for non-US markets. This is now a global vehicle not a US, Canada and Middle East market vehicle.

I'm pretty sure the Mohave is Kia's global suv (which used to be the Borego). It's sold in most locations around the world and not in the areas you stated above. The Telluride is the car for NA areas, etc. I could be wrong though.

The 23 Mohave actually looks really nice but Kia has stated it won't be brought to NA. That's a bummer as it's styling is a nice change from what we've seen in Kia so far. The silver front lower bumper is more integrated as apposed to just slapped on like the 23 Telluride. Also really like the screens in the interior...again more integrated. The digital gauges/speedometer looks like a traditional set up but is full digital and enclosed along with the center screen being part of the dash.

It looks like they took the best parts of the Telluride and Palisade and put them together.

Has anyone started shopping for financing? Which can be recommended?

Also curious on this. And is anyone aware of lenders that lock in rates while awaiting for the vehicles to arrive?

For those that placed an order, what kind of receipt did you get? My sales person will text me a picture he says.

we got a text picture as well because they had to have the GM place the order. The submission was not their typical online one.

Did they tell you when they’d expect to know if you got picked up?

That site doesn’t exist but I did sign up at joinyaa.com which doesn’t shoe any data on 2023’s. I did call a dealer that was selling 22’s at MSRP, dude told me they have an SXP X-line WG delivering in two weeks for 83k…..

Don't understand why they'd even try. For $80+k, you can get a Lincoln Navigator, BMW X7, Mercedes GLS, just to name a few. Nobody shopping in the Telluride price range would pay that and nobody shopping for a luxury full size SUV, would look in the Telluride category.

I would hope not, but for 3+ years here in the upstate of SC, clowns have been paying 8k plus for every trim they make at these stealerships

Yikes.. $30k over sticker? What are is that? The highest I’ve seen in my area is $5500 over. If i had $83k for a suv, i definitely wouldn’t be looking at a telluride

Thank

The terracotta has split dark grey/orange -ey looking plastic dash parts (which put me off) whilst the jade green dash parts are whole dark grey. Sorry can't add the photos to show it, but google or search threads.

thanks! This description helps a lot! I’ve been able to find the terracotta, but not the sage green in a Telluride. Only a Sportage! Will keep looking!

Glad you found it! That is one of many that sell over MSRP. Keep checking there are others that still sell at MSRP! My dealer never changed and they even advertise," WE sell everything at MSRP with no market adjustments or unwanted add-0ns." Good Luck!!

I’m really disappointed in how red the Terracotta and Mahogany interiors appear (at least on camera). To me, the Dune Brown was the perfect shade of brown. I miss it.

I miss the Dune Brown too!

I really dig the Terracotta. It's pretty much what the pottery looks like terracotta pots - Google Search

I love clay pottery as much as the next guy, but I don't need my automobile's interior to look like it.

too early to talk about all-weather mats or front wrap or ceramic or financing?

 

[ktkia]

My updated order was placed this morning! S trim AWD, dark moss. Original order was late March and was told 10 months. She said it will be around 3 months still so I'm hoping it gets here before the worst of winter. She wasn't able to add the tow hitch accessory but could add crossbars.
I appreciate the dilemmas some of you have with the unknowns of the higher trims but this is my first brand new car, replacing a 2008 Toyota Sienna with over 250,000 miles, so my S trim is going to seem like pure luxury to me! Heated seats and AWD during a WI winter, hooray!

Update: I just got a text from the dealer that my initial ETA is Nov 17! Before Thanksgiving even- perfect!

Never. Interior specs are the same, the available mat choices and such should already be ready to fit. Definitely do the wrap
