Dealers are laughing all the way to the bank.
The Kia Telluride continues to be a smashing sales success story for the South Korean automaker. A Kia spokesperson once even proudly called the three-row crossover to CarBuzz as the Selluride. Launched for the 2020 model year, the Telluride s popularity in America has not at all diminished; it s only increased, despite the ongoing pandemic. Demand continues to dominate supply in many parts of the country and dealerships are taking full advantage of markups.
Just over a year ago, we reported instances of $10,000 markups found for the Telluride s corporate cousin, the Hyundai Palisade. And now CarsDirect has discovered Telluride markups have hit the same amount in some parts of the country.
