Wifey is wanting an SUV as her next vehicle so I have a close eye on the Telluride and Hyundai Palisade. I like the looks of both of them. Could care less about the badging. Though I'll admit I have no clue what the resale value is of these vehicles.

I wish they’d use the same badge they use in Korea. Looks much better:

Last night on 60 minutes they had this Chinese electric car, zero to 60 in 4.5 seconds.

Isn’t MSRP about the same as an Explorer?

I like it...interesting to see what competition will do to this market (incentives) with all the models coming out

To me the Telluride looks like an older land cruiser (which isnt a bad thing) The new Lincoln Aviator would be my first choice and has the looks of a range rover sport but for the money and warranty it's hard to look past the Telluride
I like the Pallisade also. Not so much on the Ascent and new Cadillac XT6.

I actually like the looks...but for big SUVs, I like 4WD over AWD. Just my old-school preference.

It looks so good, but KIA, that's the hard sell.
I remember seeing the first Gen Sport age at a car show and I felt like I could rip the door off with little effort the cheap build quality stuck with me. I know they are Hyundai now, still.

I think it's dumb (I'm the same way) but I think if they just change the emblem, more people will buy Kia.

a t-bone collision to the side of this thing does not look very enjoyable.

What you mean? That's looks like a cutaway model and not actual model.

Well it's a concept car so you don't have to worry about that

Are they trying to sell a unibody fwd vehicle as a 4Runner overlanding competitor?

Thoughts?

It pisses me off to no end that a prime name like Telluride, one of the greatest places on earth, is used for a cheap arse wanna be SUV.

like it and may buy one if I can get past the "Kia" in my head.


We bought a 2017 Sorrento SLT after the 2016 flood. We love this vehicle. If people took the time to compare there is NO COMPARISON, so much better than Honda or Toyota. Cheers !

It's the LandMass Model, so the average fatass obese shithead can wedge themselves into it.

Y'all upstarts go with your (la-tee-da) new car brands, I'll stick with Olds & Scion & Pontiac.

How about a Genesis V-8 for an option? Yes/No?
