• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

2023 Kia Telluride Discussion

Nothing yet. Last year it was around June July on the switch.
Yea. I know when nightfall was introduced it was the end of the previous year that the KIA leaks started coming out. Thought there might be something now besides the Korean car blogs on the '23s
 
These pictures make me glad I got my 2022 now instead of ordering and possibly getting a 2023. Fugly.
 
From The Korean Car Blog:

Headlights have 2 vertical skinny DRL's
Side by side lighting near the top of the headlight housing
Fog Lights are stacked instead of side by side
Black surrounds for the rear tail lights.
Updated Rims

No info on interior updates yet. On some of the Genesis forums rumor threads key features like HDA2 will not be making it to the 2023 models because of chip restraints. Hopefully we do not lose some of the awesome luxury features in the Telluride because of this.

looks like it has different roof rails...looks like an update not a redesign?
 
Seems like it might be sharing a lot of styling from the 2023 Kia Borrego/Mohave that was recently announced. (Not for the US Market, as I understand.)
Often wonder if some of the spy photos posted from Korea were/are actually that model; they do a great job masking many of the identifying features and I've heard the sizes are close...

Are these the same shots that came out about 6 months ago?
 
Yea they seem different than the pics I've seen in the past. Looks like the x-pro model testing with the different wheels and roof rails. Appears to be slightly taller too.
Black one could be a refreshed SX with new wheels too
 
Any word if the 2023 refresh will update to a digital gauge cluster and a head unit that allows for wireless CarPlay? If so, I'm tempted to wait for next year's model. Yes, I know that a digital gauge cluster is not a game changer; however, I happen to like how they look (the one in the Hyundai Palisade, anyway).

My guess is yes it would be. You can look at the 2023 Kia Sportage to get an idea. I would be surprised if it didn't update TBH.

If you are looking for the 2023, better order it now!

The Sportage is all new for 2023, that's not the same as a refresh that's expected for the Telluride. I wouldn't count on much other than some cosmetic updates, if that.

Looks like it got the Hyundai Tucson treatment. As long as they don't eliminate all physical buttons for climate/radio, I'll go along with it.

Shots of the rear look like the reverse lights have been relocated to the bottom, could be wrong but sure looks like it
 
Hate those vertical head lights/running lights. Here is another “spy shot”. The T’Ride is so well known for its running lights KIA would be foolish to lose that brand recognition!

 
Here is a “spy shot” its really ugly headlights/ running lights. Let’s hope this is not the real 2023 or 2024, or 2025. Because I’m planning on buying a new 2024 or 2025 (unless they make it ugly).
