Nightfall or Original SX - Pics Which do you prefer?

Sorry for getting off-topic here.

I know several people with Range Rover and Land Rover SUVs. None of them complain about reliability - which surprises me!

When you dig into the CR data for reliability, there is no data, so how they produce that score is humorous.

However, I'l take my Telluride SX-P in Black Copper over the Range Rover or the Telluride NE every time!

Here is a quick video of a Dark Moss SX and a Dark Moss SXP-T with Nightfall.

As most have said, I prefer the wheels on the Regular SX more than the Nightfall wheels. I prefer the White SX in this comparison but I do like the Gravity Gray Nightfall more than I thought I would. The front end on the Nightfall is what I like most. I am very curious to see the Wolf Gray with NF in person. I believe this will be the color it looks best on.

After looking at both I wouldnt mind either. They both give you a different look! I would take the nightfall but change to SX-P rims. The nightfall package i think has made the car a bit more masculine!!

This is just what I was looking for. ty!

 

[ottoSXP]

yes, that video reaffirms the OG SX gets the vote (esp in Moss) - just needs the black front & read skids!

Nice video. Too bad it wasn’t better quality/resolution to see more detail. The blacked out window trim is so reflective when the daylight hits it, it looks like a light color in the when it’s sunny out.

We are attracted to beautiful things even when ephemeral. We show no regrets until we get in a bind.

Just for kicks, here is the 2020 Telluride... any questions?

Would you be able to show what the score is for a 2021 VW Atlas? I want more ammo to convince my wife to get the T-ride.

Not worth the $. Only think I like are the KIA badges and the Telluride letters. Can get them for less that $1295.

I'm sure @zamboni will post updated Atlas score for you, but here's some ammo in the meantime.

Nov 2019:

Consumer Reports Ratings, and the Tellurides new-found fame…

I’ve spent some considerable time on other car forums while doing some research on my next car purchase. I happen to check out the Subaru Ascent forums since they’ve been really high on CR and the accolades the Ascent got last year. Now that the Ascent took a significant dive on the ratings...

June 4 2019 CR edition:

Consumer Reports

Got my Consumer Reports magazine in yesterday and the Telluride was reviewed 👍.

I believe what happened between June and November for the Ascent to drop was the issues that were being had with the transmission. Of course the Ascent was top dog in early 2019 then took a dive - so hopefully Telluride won't either. Atlas was surprisingly low in 2019.

Whatever the spouse says, remember the only two words your answer should be: “yes, dear”.

haha. I have a feeling that no matter how hard I try and show her the data, reviews, awards, etc; she is going to say Atlas. I won't be able to argue if we can get an Atlas SEL-premium for same price/less than the SX-Prestige Telluride, especially if there is still a markup when we start to get serious about buying in Jan/Feb. I guess I can do the best I can but in the end "happy wife..."

I'm not fond of the nightfall grill. Definitely prefer the original telluride grill. But doubt if the nightfall is worth the extra $'s!

A while back, you could get at least $6k off price of Atlas - so I'm sure it will be less than the Telluride SX-P now and in January.
