Nice family and review, well done! I think you're spot on. My wife and I test drove one but haven't decided what to get yet! I think the seats could be a little better cushioned but fit most shapes and sizes. The horsepower at near 300Lbs should be plenty adequate but another 20 or 30lbs of low-end torque would be nice for a bit more punch around town. Fuel economy in general and particularly around town isn't great especially now with the crazy gas prices. The 2023 refresh is showing no changes to the powertrain so it's likely the Telly won't get a hybrid of some sort or EV version until maybe 2025 I'd guess! Overall, it's the best packaged family hauler with a great warranty, value, features and looks!

Totally agree with you. Excellent summary!

We ordered a Telluride back in February this year. So with production on the 2023 model starting soon, ours will be the 23 model. I have mixed feelings on the changes they made. I do really like the tech upgrades with the gauge cluster, infortainment and review screen mirror. But I wish they didn't ditch the signature amber DRL's on the headlights. But we're still pretty stoked and hoping to have it before Christmas! Great video, keep up the great work. Sub'd.

I have the sister to this vehicle the Hyundai palisade I have the heated and ventilated seats in the second row and heated if you have young kids who are prone to car sickness be aware because the seats have little holes for the air to go up for the cooled seats vomit can get stuck down the holes and you can’t get it out so that is a downfall of cooled seats with young kids also they are known to spill stuff as well so cover them up with a cover or a towel very nice review very authentic with your family in tow hope this comment helps other families out

Just got my Wolf Gray AWD SX Nightfall / tow pkg with butterscotch leather. It looks amazing in and out and only took 2 months to get in! Smooth ride and fantastic sound system inside. Love all the cameras and safety systems; no blind spot worries. I sure do hope I get closer to 20 MPG though.

I have had my ‘22 SXP NF/T in Gravity Grey and Black Napa Leather for about 8 full months (almost 11k miles) It has been a great vehicle hands down, I do somewhat regret not going to a Tahoe or Denali or even the Grand Cherokee L but for the price compared to those others mentioned, the Telluride is a bang for the buck. Only major gripe at this point is waiting 9 months for my order and 8 months of use, Kia is finally improving the towing for 2023. Don’t get it twisted, i am glad to see Kia pushing out new capabilities and improvements/refinements, but that is the one thing I hate about this class of vehicle - standard 5,000 lbs towing with the small exception of the Explore or Cherokee L. I didn’t want Ford and the Jeep wasn’t quite out until I got my vehicle in hand after waiting 9 months. The 2023 Telluride is said to have 5,500 lbs and a tow mode which doesn’t sound like much but I have done a bunch of searching for camping trailers that can sleep my family of 5 comfortably without going to the pop up style campers and it is hard to find something that fits the 5K lbs requirement - staying under that and allowing passenger weight and gear. The 500 lbs isn’t much but that sure helps and the selection of trailer. And we didn’t go with a truck, on a daily basis it is nice to have 2 extra seats for family or friends plus our Telluride is our family vehicle and didn’t want a truck to be the main family hauler for daily use. I am heavily considering upgrading to a 23’ at this point for that only reason. We normally keep our cars 8+ years but the towing is a lifestyle change, we can deal without what i consider small upgrades even if they are nice to have - they aren’t a necessity while towing I view as a necessity.

It's my 3rd Toyota so naturally I looked at the Highlander, mainly the XSE model out now. I do love Toyota and the reputation is unmatched, this Telluride keeps tugging at me.

It’s interesting to hear your experience with the fuel economy. I was curious as to your altitude? I wonder if that’s affecting it at all. I have the 22 SX without prestige but with the tow package, fwd and down here in Florida, I get 29 mpg on the highway in eco. I don’t have a comparison yet with the city driving though as I’ve had it only a week and just took a long road trip but that’s with me driving 75-79 mph mostly… it drops off quite a bit once you hit mid 80s. A turbo would be great as well, I agree.

Hey, thanks for watching! For short jaunts, the Telluride would be doable with three or four kids, but it would be a little tight when loaded with strollers and groceries. This will especially be the case if you plan on taking road trips. As much as I love the Telluride, I'd suggest checking out the Carnival. We have two kids right now but if we were to have another, we'd probably want something larger given how many road trips we take.

Part of me wonders if the reason there still isn’t a hybrid model (even for ‘23) is because they can’t figure out a place to safely put the battery/hybrid system yet. There is so much room despite being a midsize SUV and still having (optional) AWD, a subwoofer (for the SX), (optional) towing kit, additional storage in the trunk under the cover-thing, etc. Hopefully they figure it out though because once this has a hybrid, it’s game over (although I hope they bring back the amber DRLs, too! Total fail that they removed those for ‘23).

Some are reporting that as an issue on this engine. I suspect it isn't common just the few loud ones on the net. By the way the Telluride uses an engine operating off the Atkinson cycle which makes it more lethargic and less powerful than one would expect a 3.8 l to put out. Additionally na engines are impacted by elevation notably.
