I posed this question in another thread, based on a comment that 2022 Tellurides will continue to be built until September, but there has been no reply:
My build date is not illuminating either way, but it was May 4, 2022.
So, the old-fashioned empirical approach is called for. If you have a 2022 model year Telluride, please post the build date here. (You can find your build date on the little information panel on the driver's door jamb.) Hopefully, we'll learn what the earliest MY2022 build date was, or close to it, and eventually we'll see what the final MY2022 build dates are. Thanks.When did Kia start building 2022 Tellurides? July 2021? June 2021? Earlier?
Sometimes, when a brand-new model is being introduced, or even just a midcycle refresh, the incoming model will displace the previous one earlier than usual. This takes advantage of newness as a selling point, and results in a "stretched" model year for the new version.
Here, it seems the opposite process is occurring. The outgoing 2022 model year is being stretched, and could end up being 16 months long, or more.
My build date is not illuminating either way, but it was May 4, 2022.
