  • 2020 saw the arrival of the biggest #Kia yet, the #Telluride 3-row SUV. Both it and its platform-mate Hyundai Palisade have been very successful and raised the bar for large crossover utes. And while the Telluride was already the tougher looking of the two, for ’23 it takes an even more rugged turn through the power of X. #KiaTelluride

    Love the refresh; saw a blue one fully loaded with roof rack bars and found it looking quite sharp, nearly Range Rover-like in its exterior aesthetics and stance. Kia’s done such an incredible job on that model.

    Every car company at some point and time has struggled and made some junk. At one time Lexus was a unknown struggling brand for years. But look at it now, after given time. Kia and Hyundia have come a long way. Either they will or they won't be better than what they were. Time will tell. Right now though, they have significantly improved, hopefully they will continue. Look at Ram vehicle's, TRX vs Raptor, lexsus vs Cadillac.

      The Honda is a generation newer than the Kia and a copy at that. We'll see what this Kia looks like in the next generation.

      Good call Stephen.. I agree and I think most people agree.. Thats probably why the Kia out sells the Hyundai. I think they should have just went ahead and made the Hyundai a traditional shifter like the Kia.

      ​​​@@elliottbutts153 SUVs use more gas, handle poorer than minivans, have less seating space, and are often worse at carrying things than station wagons, and cause deadlier accidents due to the often useless off-road hardware, but the car companies are happy to advertise them and create good sales.
      Part of people's purchasing decisions depend on the marketing, it's not all personal choice, and they don't offer all the options in America such as station wagon versions while other countries get them.
