The Telluride has been a big hit and Kia has made some updates for 2022. The Telluride goes up agains the Honda Pilot, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, Ford Expedition, Hyundai Palisade, Nissan Pathfinder, Mazda CX-9, Dodge Durango and Toyota Highlander. On the outside of the SX Prestige trim you will find optional 20in wheels, amber DRLs, special grill, and panoramic sunroof. On the inside you will greeted by a full leather interior, 10.25in infotainment screen, and plenty of cargo space. Inder the hood is a 3.8L V6 that produces 291HP and is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2022 Kia Telluride a BETTER midsize SUV than a Toyota Highlander?

Like KIA design, but I'm gun shy about their motors after the engine of my Optima seized due to their manufacturing flaws.
It’s amazing how low Joe can go and this is why he’s stuck with HighSchool wet dreams of Twinkles.
How does this compare to the new Infiniti QX60?
11:17 😂 because your girlfriend dumped you
11:18 "You can rub your wood, especially since your girlfriend dumped yah!!"🍌😂
I’d say it is better than the highlander. Although the highlander does have an edge for fuel economy with the hybrid.
Please do the Audi RsQ8
Actually the Highlander has 4 more Hp 😉
14:42 that took me aback 😭😭
"Alcantara material, just like your girlfriend's pussycat." I had to do a double take Joe. I can't with you sometimes!
These are going upto 10K over MSRP right now…..even the used ones.
I love digital displays. For the amount of money one is paying for, it should.
The new grand cherokee L look nice as well. Tough choice for 3rd seaters now.
You get a lot for the money, but I only have two issues. Longevity & Resale Value?
Love the telluride
They should make the armrest little bit wider on the captains chairs
Can you even find a Telluride forMSRP? These are going for nearly $60k+ used!
I have to agree with the raised lettering idea on the front hood. This would look much better if it were embossed. Also, I'd take the Telluride ANY DAY over the Range Rover for two reasons: 1) Reliability and, 2) much more bang for the unwaisted buck. Kia's evolution over the past 23 years or so, since their initial collaboration with Hyundai, has been phenomenal. This very nice Telluride is just further proof of that. Thanks, Joe.
The Telluride looks amazing! Just wish it had amber blinkers like in the UAE and places like that, but otherwise, it's great!
Lori, what mic do you guys use?
By any chance what is the difference between the prestige and nightfall edition? Thanks.
This might the one for wifey.
Thanks guys 👦
Great review Joe 👍 Going TELLURIDE!!!! Have the SX Prestige Nightfall Wolf Gray with the Dune Brown seats on order!
Oh snap. He actually had twinkies in there
I have one of these on order. I an hearing of a few issues. Motors. And vibrations at certain speeds. Advice anyone? And delivery wait times?
Highlander has 295hp
My wife’s custom order is suppose to be here soon as a valentine day gift 2022 Kia Telluride SX prestige and nightfall package
Another Excellent review Joe & Lori. Great job. Thank you for your hard work.
Why do companies not hide the rear wiper????? Zonk it every time Raiti!
The lack of a panoramic sunroof is the biggest zonk for me.
Kia went from making junk to now making high quality,durable, and desirable products
“Rub your wood after your girlfriend dumped you” Huh??
It looks enticing but I’ll stick with Toyota.
Look at the Highlander side view. The design looks sportier. Great reviews of all the vehicles. ON THROTTLE !!😂😂😂😂😂😂
No wonder I can’t find Twinkies. He’s got them all. 😆
Neighbor – What you drive?
Me – Tell-u-ride
NB – I asked first
Me – I know
NB – Ok, i have a Tundra, and you?
Me – Tell-u-ride
NB – Psycho, bye…
Lol!! "You're going all the way, just like you did with your girlfriend back in high school". Joe's always got the great comments!
Can you do a review on the 3-row Kia Sorento PHEV please? They're so hard to find
but kia just give cars away
On more telluride review and kia will give you a free one 😁
Great review Joe! Going to replace my pos outback was looking at a truck, think I like this better! Thanks again.
I think the Kia telluride and the k5 Gt had a fully digital Gage cluster
But how are they holding up after it’s release? I was thinking about purchasing but everyone is telling me they will break down and that the resell value is horrible 😕😕
Well, the Highlander is not that great of a vehicle so bar is not that high
