I'm sure this topic has been discussed many times. I searched and read. I swear.
Anyway....Shopping for a 2024 Telluride SX X-Pro. Not really interested in the prestige level. My wife and I just left our local dealer (Halleen Kia, N Olmstead OH) and we sat in EVERY SX X-Pro and SXP X-Pro on the lot.
Here's my understanding of leather choices:
Regular leather
X-Pro leather (has V-shaped stitching and embossed X-Pro logo)
Nappa leather (has multiple horizontal stitch lines)
Now...here's my issue and my question. SX X-Pro leather and SXP X-Pro (nappa) leather all have the same V-shaped stitching. That leads me to believe that ALL X-Pro leather is actually nappa leather. Or perhaps all of the SXP X-Pros only have "regular" X-Pro leather (I find the unlikely). Or Kia has 2 different levels of X-Pro leather with the V stitching that look identical (I find that unlikely, as well).
So, can someone provide a little clarity for me here? Are there really 2 different levels of X-Pro leather that look identical? Or are SX X-Pro owners actually getting unadvertised Nappa leather?
