Steve, I can't thank you enough for your review of the 2023 Kia Telluride. Your review was magnificent, superb, totally thorough; you didn't miss a beat. Steve, you did a great job ! You're exuberance, excitement, and enthusiasm came through loud and clear for the new Telluride and was just wonderful to witness; you really love this vehicle. Based on your review, I also now love the Telluride too ( Always thought it was great ). Great job, Steve ! Best- Tim
I saw the 2023 Telluride yesterday and, I have to say, that while the amber color DRL’s were stunning, this new iteration follows up with being just as identifiable from a mile away! Very impressive! Not a fan of the lower front fascia/bumper though. It seems to resemble the X-Line and X-Pro trims on Sportage and Sorento, but is standard across all trims for the Telluride, which just looks ok to me.
I agree with the lights they're adding in the Kia lineup, it makes them pop. If you did go for a Telluride which trim level do you think you'd go with?
@@SirT80 The black accents really do pop nicely on this. It would be great for Kia to open up the X-Line highlights across the whole Canadian lineup like they have in the US
I just picked up this exact telluride for the wife literally its twin. We had got a 2023 x5 m50i but we have 3 kids 2 5 years olds and a 3 month old and unfortunately the x5 was too small so now i get to keep the x5 as a toy 😎. Anyway i was blown away by the 2023 kias interior i would say its pretty much on par with my x5 and the x5 is double the price. Amazing value for the money my only gripe is the the engine feels pretty underpowered a 3.8. V6 should be making well over 300hp oh and the single exhaust the dual exhaust would have completed the look. I would recommend the telluride to anyone looking for a spacious suv.
Exciting you'll have X5 to have some fun with now! The engine is one thing a few people have mentioned too.. It would be great if Kia could add on a turbo or pair it with a nano motor for a hybrid with a bit more capability. It's great to hear from a BMW owner how surprised they are of the interior of this!
Another top rate video - thank you! I looked at a lot of vehicles before getting down to either a 2023 Telluride or the Palisade. Initially, I liked the look of the Telluride a bit more than the Palisade, but I liked the tech more in the Palisade. Due to market circumstances and another buyer who bailed due to sharply higher loan rates, the precise 2023 Palisade I was looking for became available from my dealer 3 weeks out, not 6 months out, so I bought the Palisade. It's a tie between the Telluride and the Palisade for class leader and it's more personal taste or, in my case, dumb luck that determined which vehicle wound up in my driveway. Cheers!
Thanks Tommy, appreciate that! I'd say your choices were brothers from another mother. They're fairly identical when you look at specs! Glad you were able to get behind the wheel of one, enjoy the ride
Great video with all the hidden features as well as the basics explained in clear easily understood terms. Informative,helpful and entertaining. Off to check your other telluride videos
@@CarsWithSteve Very useful indeed. At 47.5 inches wide, looks like it's juuuuust a half-an-inch too narrow to accept a standard 4x8 sheet of drywall or plywood. Bummer! Glad I know!
Kia needs to put LEDs in the upper taillight extension of the lift gate. That is an oversight. I love my 2022, it's a little more classy, less blocky, but these are nice. Highly recommend the Telluride series.
Ohh interesting idea for an added feature. I like what Ford did with the Bronco Sport puddle lamps, they're fully adjustable so maybe something like that. Was the Telluride the first time you owned a Kia?
I am finding really stupid that after 12years driving my old Ford Focus, the option windows up/down from the key is not available as standard for all cars..in 2023. Great review Steve!
Thanks Eduard! Some manufacturers are coming around but there's always going to be a disconnect between trim levels. Curious about that Focus.. has it given you any transmission issues?
I recently ordered from OEDRO the rear cargo mat as Steve had showed them of good quality. The mat did not fit my 2024 Telluride although the OEDRO order instructions said it would fit. I asked OEDRO to have them pay for the return the item as it was a quality issue based on their catalog order description; they want me to keep the mat, or pay $14 for return shipping charges. I would not recommend you order from OEDRO!
OEDRO cargo mat ordered for 2024 Telluride; didn’t fit although proper car nomenclature was given. Now They want me to pay $14 to return a $60 mat when this is definitely a quality issue. Won’t buy from them again!! Very Poor customer service!!
Thanks so much! This is one of the more popular trims in Canada but not sure about how well it sells in the US. How long have you had the Seltos for? Curious.. have you run into any issues with it?
Thanks so much! I have one on the 2022 model that's fairly similar to the 2023. The newer one is on the list though and I'm hoping to shoot it early next month! 2021 - 2021 Grand Cherokee L - ua-cam.com/video/-oD8lc8n0GY/v-deo.html 2022 Grand Cherokee - ua-cam.com/video/Ppj6DbKzJWs/v-deo.html
Good towing advertised, especially for the pro BUT there is no towing harness and none available. Aftermarket options would void the warranty. Notice none are sold with a hitch. Contacted KIA and there is no remedy available. Reviewers and dealers won’t mention this.
I had someone mention that not long after this review came out.. The issue is that the factory/dealer tow options are still subject to a recall for a potential fire risk that still hasn't been solved. It has to do with the wiring issues from what I've seen. I'm really surprised that Kia has said that aftermarket would void the warranty though.. I'm going to have to dig into that a bit more
It works really well, the sensors are great! I test it out in a few of my other videos on the Telluride and it's just as responsive as the rear sensors
I used to have a Palisade and it was super helpful for me especially with the large front. Awesome video man, hopefully getting an SX-Prestige this weekend, do you think an X-line is worth the upgrade? Also I know there is an entertainment package that can be added have you ever seen those?
Appreciate that! If you're going for the SX-Prestige the only real difference is going to be in some of the aesthetics. The X-Line will have black highlights all around which will give it a more aggressive look. I personally like the blacked out look but you're paying an extra $1k ish for those highlights. We don't have the entertainment packages north of the border so haven't had a chance to see them in person. If you've got kids that need to be occupied it might be worth it to just look at some cheap tablets with headrest straps
@@CarsWithSteve I was thinking of some sort of aggressive bumper treatment like I did to my BMW once. I also have this nagging feeling that the window in the back could look dated very quickly because of its shape
@@CarsWithSteve it was one of thise bumpers you order online. Change the entire look of the car from corporate to something that looks meaner! Do you enjoy making these videos? I like to watch car reviews.
Oh nice, there are some pretty great aftermarket parts out there! Yeah it's definitely fun making these. It would be nice to get the cars for more than a few hours though so that I can give a longer experience review. Some of the cars I review are sold so I'm not able to take them on test drives either which is why I focus more on feature focused ones
What about oil consumption problems a engine carbon problems. There is an on going class action suit against Kia for these problems.. you should mention this. Dellie
Carbon buildup is not really an issue now compared to the way it was in the past, it can affect engines from every car. . Use a top tier gas and regularly maintain your vehicle to limit your exposure to things happening. Turbocharged engines tend to have it worse if they aren't properly cooled down before turning them off and this one doesn't have a turbo. An active lawsuit, like you'll find against almost every auto manufacturer, means nothing until it's concluded and there's an outcome that can be discussed. I'm not a law channel and don't like to speak in conjecture.
Is the interior of the telluride in this video the terra-cotta? It looks like a dune brown color like the 2022 year model options.. but I was under the impression they got rid off the dune brown option.? Maybe Canada is different ?
Haven't had a chance to review the Highlander yet. It has a turbocharged 2.4L I4 so roughly the same horsepower and a bit more torque than this. Same seating options and similar tech between the two of them..
@@CarsWithSteve yeah I see them but am thinking which to choose for longevity kia tech is good they have everything I need in the telluride but Toyota is strong too
They're both fairly reliable.. I think it's going to come down to how you feel in them. Best bet would be to set up a test drive back to back and see what you feel more comfortable in
Quick question,,are most Kia dealers still trying to rip consumers off with over inflated “market adjustment” mark-ups? It’s a very nice car,,however if you pay above MSRP, you are getting scammed and contributing to the problem. Last year I was quoted 8k and 10k over MSRP,,not gonna happen, so I went back with Toyota.
Sucks that you had that experience with the dealer you went to.. It wasn't an industry norm but there were some across every brand who were trying to take advantage of product shortages not realizing the long term impact it would have on their brand. I agree with you on not contributing to the problem. I never recommend paying over MSRP, I'd go used or find a different dealer to work with. Curious, what Toyota did you end up with?
@@CarsWithSteve we went with the 22 Highlander,,,my wife had a 2014 and we loved it,,,was going to try the Telluride until the 2 local dealerships here in South Carolina both were trying to take advantage of consumers and the situation with outrageous mark ups. We waited about 1 month on the Highlander and did pay MSRP, which was fine for me at the time, given the supply chain issues.
I have to get behind the wheel of a Highlander.. I've heard some good things but haven't had a chance to review one yet. Glad you didn't pay over MSRP!
Here in California they are marking them up to 15k and on at the ford dealership I’ve seen the raptors marked up to 30k!!!! Im getting a Telluride at msrp
Price highlight comes up a min or so into the video and fuel economy is covered near the 4:00 mark. Check the description of the video for the build link and price details for this specific one
The closest to this in India would be the Carens unless you were able to find an importer that could bring it in for you. That would also mean left hand drive instead of right...
Never a good idea to pay over retail for a car. I'd go used market, find a different dealer or switch brands before that ever crossed my mind. There are some dealers with every brand who were choosing to mark up their inventory without realizing the long term impact it will have on their dealership's reputation. But $15k.. I would have walked in a second when I saw that
I was reading up on this after you commented about it and it's kind of neat.. Telluride being derived from the old mountain town in Colorado "to hell you ride"
I see people flip the factory wheels for aftermarket ones pretty regularly, especially in rides like the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler where they're going off-road. Hydro dip the 18s for a different color? There have been a few people mentioning that Snow mode caused a temporary loss in acceleration but it went away when switching back to Normal drive mode - no official recall or mention from Kia though. There aren't many complaints compared to the number of units they've sold
That engine is antiquated and waiting for major problems like all KIA and Hyundai cars. If they could actually produce reliable cars and engines that don't fail, they'd be the most popular brands in the US.
Saying all Kia engines are waiting for problems is probably not the right statement to make here. I had a Kia run over 250,000 km and the only issue that popped up was part of the fuse assembly that needed to be replaced. If people actually maintain their cars regularly they tend to last.. There will always be outliers with every manufacturer where a legitimate defect or issue can come up but I always look at how many people have complained about issues with their vehicles vs how many have been sold to get an idea on whether or not a vehicle is worth the buy
You have fake news information about reliability…they are selling like hotcakes because it performs well…its now way ahead against those brand way ahead in the market…please show figures rather than hearsay informations…
@@billc4169 Bill, constructive criticism: he's a one-person operation using a single camera, so it limits how dynamic the content can be. That said, I think there's plenty of car footage with his voice-overlayed. His format is in-line with most other youtube car reviewers. In fact, when there's TOO MUCH 'car footage with a voice talking over it,' people tend to become distracted and less engaged with the video. So I believe your criticism is invalid.
I hope you don’t plan on towing. There is no towing harness and none are available. KIA does not have a remedy. Aftermarket will void your warranty. There are no plug and play options. With that in mind, it’s definitely NOT the best SUV under 50k.
Have the issues of an inappropriate fire at anytime and from the Company 🫣 Do not park this vehicle inside a structure until wiring issues are resolved.😬
Looked into this a few days ago.. The NHTSA recall is for builds in the 2020 - 2022 model years for people who chose to get the accessory tow hitch installed. Looks like it can allow moisture into the harness module and cause a short circuit. No fires currently reported because of it. There is a temp fix with a fuse being pulled and a permanent fix in the works

That said, I think there's plenty of car footage with his voice-overlayed. His format is in-line with most other youtube car reviewers. In fact, when there's TOO MUCH 'car footage with a voice talking over it,' people tend to become distracted and less engaged with the video. So I believe your criticism is invalid.
Best SUV under 50k USD. 🤓🤓🤓
Definitely one of my favorites! The tech that Kia has in their vehicles is great
I’m getting one for msrp at 39k
I hope you don’t plan on towing. There is no towing harness and none are available. KIA does not have a remedy. Aftermarket will void your warranty. There are no plug and play options. With that in mind, it’s definitely NOT the best SUV under 50k.
Have the issues of an inappropriate fire at anytime and from the Company 🫣 Do not park this vehicle inside a structure until wiring issues are resolved.😬
Looked into this a few days ago.. The NHTSA recall is for builds in the 2020 - 2022 model years for people who chose to get the accessory tow hitch installed. Looks like it can allow moisture into the harness module and cause a short circuit. No fires currently reported because of it. There is a temp fix with a fuse being pulled and a permanent fix in the works
