SX AWD vs SX Prestige AWD

[BobK]

We are planning to buy a Telluride SX with AWD, and cannot decide on the Prestige package. According to the build it site, Prestige includes Active On Demand AWD with AWD lock and Snow Mode. I thought all AWD Tellurides included that.
What does the Prestige package add to AWD onthe Telluride SX AWD?

I believe the transmission is the same across all AWD.

I don’t know the full feature set. My favorite Prestige features are:
- HUD
- heated/ventilated captain’s chairs
- 360-degree cameras
- rain-sensing wipers

The AWD system is exactly the same on every AWD-equipped Telluride. No differences at all.

The SX Prestige package requires AWD, so that is why it is sometimes mentioned, even though its system is no different than that of any other AWD Telluride.

I don’t know the full feature set. My favorite Prestige features are:
- HUD
- heated/ventilated captain’s chairs
- 360-degree cameras
- rain-sensing wipers

The 360° camera is on all SX models. That isn’t a Prestige feature.

Thanks for clearing this up for me.

Main differences between the SX and SXP are:

* Heated and ventilated 2nd row seats
* HUD
* Rain-sensing wipers
* Nappa leather seating surfaces with different available colors
* Suede-like headliner

Yes thx, I don’t know the full feature sets.

Go for prestige and never look back. No regrets.

Prestige also includes 2 position memory seats, for what its worth.

I got it for the grey napa leather. I'm pretty sure that is why most people spring for it.

This is listed as a feature in the SX (non-prestige) on KIA's website. It's not listed in window stickers for either the SX or the SXP.

So does that mean the Snow Mode is included in the SX trim by default (non-Prestige) IF I get the AWD version?

Snow mode comes on any AWD-equipped Telluride.

We chose the Prestige upgrade because we’re tall people. Hubby is 6’5” and I’m 5’9”. We needed the extra seat surface.

What does this even mean?

I wish they offered that premium headliner in the lower trims, that is literally the only thing that really sparks my interest in the Prestige package... And if they offered it with black seating/black headliner, homerun...!
