What's New With the 2023 Kia Telluride SX X-Line AWD and Why You Should Buy One

We drove the Kia Telluride back when it was new, and absolutely loved it. Since then we've driven a number of other three-row crossovers including the direct competitors to the Telluride. Fast forward a few years and Kia has come with their first facelift for their flagship SUV, updates to the headlights and tail lights are the biggest exterior changes, along with new trim options and different versions in the US and Canadian markets.

James goes over the exterior design and features found on the 2023 Kia Telluride X-Line AWD including the surround view camera, video rearview camera, LED lighting, and more. He jumps inside to go over the new interior colour and layout of the front area which saw the largest changes.

He then takes the 2023 Kia Telluride SX X-Line AWD on a real-world road test to see how this vehicle performs on day to day driving, including the drive, ride, and feel of this vehicle on the road. He discusses his thoughts on this compared with the Hyundai Palisade, and some of the reasons why you'd want to buy this over that one.

In Canada this vehicle is sold as the X-Line AWD trim, however in the USA it appears to be close to the SX X-Line AWD trim, with different features being available at the higher trims for the US-Market.
