Just a picture for now.  Presumably on the same platform as the Kia Telluride

Acadia, Pilot, Ascent, Highlander.....



This car is FWD, unibody, and is only marginally larger than the old Santa Fe XL.

The new Santa Fe is 5-pass only.

Why would they name a vehicle a fence? :confused:

Not very inspiring.

I think they meant "palisades" which is a line of cliffs in New Jersey- or if they were being pretentious, after the Pacific Palisades neighborhood in LA
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Stockade maybe?  When you're inside, it like being in a fort.

Almost definitely after the mountains in the Sierras.

The top picture isn't so bad.  It's a crowded segment now with a lot of good offerings.  Looks more upscale, manly, and overall better than the Highlander or Pilot just based on this one picture.  Big shiny grills are all the rage now anyways.  I think it'll sell well.  2nd from top picture is atrocious.  What is that?

Heh - I didn't even look at the pictures closely enough to notice how different they are.

I think the bottom one is just a Kia Telluride?

What is a Telluride?

City in SW Colorado with a very well-reviewed ski resort (though I've yet to go there personally).

It's more a matter of flow.  Kia Sedona is a nice name, it flows off the tongue.  Kia Telluride is hard to say even in your head.  Are all the good names already taken?  Kia Salida would be a nice name or even Kia Ouray, if they want to stick to Colorado.

Maybe it's just because I'm already familiar with the place and have said the word many times in normal conversation, but I don't have any issues with it.

But people can't even decide on what the correct pronunciation of Salida is (it should be sa-LEE-duh because it's originally a Spanish word, but locals insist that it's suh-LIE-duh), and no one pronounces "Ouray" correctly the first time (it's YER-ray). Hell, I still usually can't remember how to pronounce it correctly. :lol:

So how do you even pronounce Telluride?  Is it TELL-u-ride or Tel-lur-ide?

I think "TELL-you-ride", though some people kinda slur the R onto both syllables - "TELL-yer-ride". Definitely not tel-lur-ide.
