Latest Detailed 23 Breakdown (09-29-22)

So none of the trims get the dual screens until you step up to SX, did I read that spreadsheet correct?
This is the low-end cluster. That’s what will be on the LX, S, and EX.

The SX and SX-P will get the dual 12.3” screens that were shown in all of the press pictures starting in April.

I had ordered interior LED lighting kit for the floorboards on my 22. Is this option available on the MY23 SXP X-PRO?
This kit is pretty pointless and about 300 more than it should be. As mentioned, the dealer can install but it’s truly a waste of money.

Yeah I'm realizing that now. Thanks for your input.
 
@StephenCantrelle I'm seeing varying accounts of issues getting orders through with a tow package. Can you verify whether any trims are currently able to add a tow package including the actual hitch/harness?

Not an option to order at the moment on any trim. Looks like we got confirmation from others that the X-Line and X-Pro with the tow mode are being shipped out with the self leveling suspension but not the Tow hitch or wiring harness. I am personally still waiting on my first 23 models to hit the lot.

Do you think that Kia will be offering to install the hitch after they resolve the issues with the harness, for those who ordered a "tow package"?

No idea.. still waiting on some kind of communication from Kia even addressing any of this internally.
 
So all Wolf Grey will have to be X-Line/X-line Pro?

Wolf gray is exclusively X-Line or X-Pro. Just like how it has always been Nightfall only.

Cheers family hope this helps..


So is mahogany available on all SX exterior colors? Am I reading that right? And we have no pics on it yet?

Also, any pics of the blue interior yet? I haven't seen any.

We had a Dark Moss 22 ordered with butterscotch. Not sure what to replace that with since Terracotta is only on X-Line and don't plan to get that package.

Mahogany is available with all colors except for the ones that are X-Line/X-Pro only (wolf gray, jungle green).

Deep navy and misty gray isn’t available with dark moss, so you’d have to change your exterior choice if you wanted it. I do not believe I’ve seen any real-life pictures of it yet.

Here’s some pictures I’ve seen of mahogany:

For $54,120 on the SX-P X-Pro you would think the hitch and harness would be included. Come on KIA I'm disappointed!

Oh I like the mahogany!
 
It looks like LX and EX are the only versions with bench seats....is that correct? The S model used to have bench seats as well, but it doesnt look like an option in the 2023.

Correct, that is how it’s been since MY 2021.

The bench was a $100 option on the S for 2020, but obviously short-lived one because it only lasted for one year.

Agreed! In looking at what I ordered in a MY22 (SX-P + NF + Tow + floor mats) and what I'd get in a MY23 (SX-P X-Pro + $575 Tow Hitch w/wiring + $495 Midnight Blue + $295 Terracotta ), the MSRP goes from $51520 up to $55485. Sure there are some other changes from MY22 SX-P to MY23 SX-P X-Pro, but not sure I'd value them all in at worth the $4k increase.

I’ll follow up on this since I have now seen a few pictures of the deep navy and misty gray interior.

Don't forget your 2022 would also cost for a special color and interior color - so $800 should be added to your MY22 figure.

X-Pro is not a match for NF. X-Line makes more sense to compare to... X-Pro costs even more and is just overpriced AT tires. Kia has lost their minds trying to make these look more rugged/capable. It's a freakin' minivan platform.
