The fact that KIA is being compared to these high end brands is a huge plus for them. I love the new KIA Telluride..
That is because Genesis cannot.
Norm T lol
@@mybro727 right?
Norm T Yes, my sentiments exactly.
This Kia front lights look like it’s a older escalade
You didn't mention the Kia tailgate will open if you just stand there for 3 seconds
Yes sir. I missed that part.
I was thinking the same thing. Like where did he get that info lol
Sam CarLegion Did you compare the Palisade and Telluride, would want to see that.
And you can set the tail gate to any height you want - memory
IT DOES?!!!??!???!
I honestly would take the KIA !
Fair choice
So would I! Get virtually the same amount of car for the money!
It looks way better too!
You wouldn't if they were given to you. It has alot less build quality. Test drive them
I just bought a 2020 Telluride SX... The Telluride is awesome! The technology is unbelievable. Especially the cruise control. I traded in my 2010 Loaded Cadillac Escalade! The lane keep assist is almost to good to be true! If you can test drive a SX model and see for yourself! And as far as the foot liftgate deal there's an option you can set that if the key fob is within a couple of feet of the tailgate it will automatically open hands free...
I actually like that telluride it’s cute. Looks like a affordable Range Rover
I've had a Telluride SX for 3 months now - Best car I've ever owned. I like the looks of teh Telly MUCH better than the Caddy.
@@basilbcf lol 😆 😂 🤣
KIA Telluride over the Cadillac any day.
Why? Any point?
I traded in my Cadillac for the Telluride SX... No regrets
@@bsmith8209 How are you with Telluride SX? Are you satisfied with you new SUV? I am asking because I want to buy KIA Telluride too.
@@bsmith8209 How are you with Telluride SX? Are you satisfied with you new SUV? I am asking because I want to buy KIA Telluride too.
Where do I start? The Kia Acess which allows you to start your Telluride from your phone gives you an advantage over key fob remote starts because by the time the key fob users are in range to start their vehicle you're Telluride is already warmed up and ready to go. And if you kids or someone borrows your SUV the system has a vehicle tracker to show you real time movement of your Telluride. Which is also good if you go to a parking lot and forget where you park. The HD Steaming Traffic also comes in handy as well. Another thing I found out accidentally was if you're running the heater in the Telluride while driving and roll all four windows down the heat automatically cuts off. The lane assist is pretty sweet but sometimes its a little aggressive especially when its raining and you're trying to avoid the big puddles in the road. Its has great speed. The Harmon Kardon (Samsung) sounds awesome! Once you adjust the equalizer to your liking (I like extra bass). And the rear moonroof makes everyone in the rear seats smile when they first see it. Its definitely a head turner. The LED headlights are excellent especially when the fog lights are on. I can see well at night on these dark Georgia roads. The surround cameras are cool as well I find myself using it a lot more than expected. I have the Ebony Black Telluride with the Butterscotch interior so I put a 5% tint on the rear and 20% tint on the front. Overall I'm very happy with my Telluride SX. Kia showed up and Showed out with the Telluride!
I never thought in my life I would see a Kia go against a Cadillac. Good comparison
Times have changed
Kia beat BMW. U get more for money in Kia than BMW. More realiable than BMW better warranty than BMW
@@moneyparhar That's a miss perception. BMW X3 is their big seller and that is very reliable now. Yes a few years back there was a timing chain issue and a few other annoyances but they are bullet proof now. I Own a X3 and its a fantastic car with zero issues. I won't argue that the Telluride is a better value but not a better car. Mainly because the BMW still goes with the RWD as the primary driving wheels along with the Xdrive. The bi turbo B58 6 and bi turbo 2.0 matched to the superior ZF 8 speed are better performers as well as considerably more efficient. But X3/X5 won't offer the third row. For that you have to go with the X7 which is pricey. I'll admit the BMW cost more but money aside, its still the better SSUV. But one thing I notice is how similar the Kia is to the BMW. Obviously they harvested some German engineers. It not a accident that the interior and center stack/gauge cluster is very BMW like. The Telluride is the most German like SUV that is not German of any OEM that I can think of. And probably why its a hotcake right now. Its a German copy but don't stroke yourself in thinking its a better performer. Its not. Not even remotely so. But when comparing it to the anemic XT6 the Kia destroys it. GM is bottom of the barrel IMO.
HiPlains1 that’s funny because GM out performs BMW and is even outselling them in several segments. They’ve literally taken their slogan from underneath them and Cadillac has become the “ultimate driving machine”. So how can something that looks better, handles better and is more reliable be the bottom of the barrel? That doesn’t even make sense. The KIA doesn’t destroy anything, it’s a plastic econobox that wants to be a luxury vehicle but is actually only the cheap alternative. Cadillac is quality and refinement.
@@mybro727 XT6 is a POS. FWD based/transverse mounted V6 motor that is fitted all the way to front bumper. Sure you can add AWD but its no match for the RWD/Xdrive on the bimmer. And Cad has nothing that can stand up to the ZF 8 speed and inline 3.0 bi turbo inline B57 BMW motor. The 8 inch center stack is a joke. XT5 is now in fifth place in the segment. look it up.. grossly outdated now. And the XT4 is not even worth looking at. The XT6 is a joke at this price point. All makes have newer refreshed models and GM still using crappy center stacks and cheaper with crap analog gauges with FWD/transverse mounted crappy setups which is a insult for a so called premium SUV. Even Ford updated their center stack/gauges and returned the Explorer to RWD with AWD options. XT6 is a chevy with heavy lipstick. Again, look at XT5 sales. They are in a slump. Maybe next years refresh might help but nothing special here.
Telluride all the way!
I said this and will say this again...Kia Telluride any day
Stick to your choice :)
I prefer the tough manly look of the Telluride.
I'm not paying 60,000+ for a spruced up Chevy Traverse!!!!
Roy Irving Cadillac has really lost its way!
Thank you for saying that 👍
Thank you! I'm not buying a regular Traverse LOL
Roy Irving a loaded traverse is 56 anyway lol why not?
chaz l I think the navigator threw them off
Kia has never had a foot release. They have a what’s called smart trunk or smart lift gate. You stand behind it for 3 seconds and it opens.
I like the new Cadillac different style. But Kia just blows away this thing completely
Fair comment
The Caddy is pretty, the Kia is a more bland, but its much better overall.
It blows it away*
It simply "blowing it" would imply that the XT6 dominates it.
Does the Kia offer Wi-Fi? XT6 also has more power and is smaller. Both vehicles are intended for different buyers.
MiataDreamer- Jack ummm.... phrasing
Can you guys believe it that the Kia is actually quieter at 70 mph with 63 decibels? It’s quieter than even Lexus SUV’s.
A different driving mode for every day of the week on the Telluride lol
I know it’s already been stated, but I have to reiterate that the fact a Kia is being compared to a Cadillac is a true “cry for help” for the designers and engineers at GM. How could they be so foolishly ignorant to the competition?
Long story
In their domestic market Hyundai and Kia compete with BMW and Mercedes, not just Honda and Toyota. HMG quality has grown leaps and bounds and the new/next generation of autos shows it. Both the Germans and the Japanese-let alone US Domestic-brands have not been keeping up with Technology. Kia and Hyundai are internally benchmarking against Tesla and BMW, not Nissan or Mazda.
They are both nice but I would pick the Kia.
Fair enough
Like driving lame cars?
the fact that people think Cadillacs are the same vehicles as 20 years ago you're missing out big time they are not built like the old vehicles with Northstar motors and have completely different suspensions so until you actually go out to a Cadillac dealer and experience the quality. Kia will never be on the same level as Cadillac BMW or Bentle or Audi so just stop it
Jay Taylor exactly. They’re nuts 🥜
@@jaytaylor6135 It is more of what you are looking for in value and preference. I personally would get the KIA but that is because I love the Warranty and value of the price. I am not buying for brand name, I buy based off the overall value.
Excellent review! But I must say, it's a bit of a sad reality to see a premium luxury brand vehicle being compared to a mainstream non-luxury vehicle! But it goes to show how the bridge between luxury and non-luxury is virtually closed nowadays!
Thank you for your comment. More comparisons to come
The only luxury aspect of Cadillac seems to be its price.
Still a Kia at the end of the day, wouldn’t be caught dead driving one lol
No Cadillac didn’t try hard enough plus this is a luxury KIA.
Kia are cheaply build
This comparison angers me that GM dropped the ball so badly with the XT6. Bravo to Kia for manufacturing a great car in the United States
Stephen Maner this is a Korean brand.......
Agree Stephen - XT6 could have been something special, especially after seeing the 2021 Escalade redesign, but it's SO plain and half finished. It's a joke.
Made in America
This is a high line luxury Kia though. What Kia and Hyundai does is pack in a lot equipment in a cheap package. However these cars are cheaply made esp under the hood. Don’t take things at face value
More tech on the Kia. The top of the line Telluride cost LESS than the base price of a Cadillac XT6. On top of that the Kia looks better than the Cadillac XT6 inside and out. Telluride is selling like hotcakes (numbers speak for themself).
Thanks for your comment Mike.
BS lol 😆 🤣 I see more cadillacs
@@issavibez394 F That. There is a reason why the Kia is rated higher. The Cadi XT6 is TRASH.
@@surething412 no
@@issavibez394 Numbers dont lie. Look at the sale numbers. Dont be scared. Do a google search. It is not hard to do.
i own a telluride sx after being Toyota for 8 years, and I must say that he gives you a lot more for your money, that other SUV's, there's no comparison, style, security, space etc. I love telluride. Kia's revolutionizing
Toyota builds more durable cars. Just wait
My, times have indeed changed. A KIA goes against a Cadillac (A CADILLAC!!!) and the house is divided on which is better? Wow. Super impressed. Talk about turning a brand around.
Km
I agree... Kia is not a Kia few year ago anymore. They are well planned and engineered vehicles now..... Respect to KIA!
Not paying 60 k on a cheaply made Kia. U just seeing the face. This cheaply made underneath
@@rahimi4762 Haha. I get your concern. But they aren't made cheaply underneath anymore. A 5year/100,000km comprehensive warranty (10year/80,000miles in the USA) speaks volumes. Don't you think so?
The so-called well-made ones can't even stand by their product that much. 😊
Doesn't sound like a review or comparison by an actual car guy.
He has no idea what he's talking about
@@lleavellr he reviewed both these two cars and you say he doesn't know what he is talking about? You high?
I started questioning him when he said Cadillac offered 6 seats. They offer 7 in the XT6 not 6
@@cooperlawrence6176 but it does offer 6? And 7?
2JZ for life it only offers 7
Cadillac looks all the same but the KIA has that robust strong look
Bruce Baner the KIA has someone else’s look lol🤷🏽♂️
@Mybro727 matters if they do they still make good cars and they stepping their game up simple
The price and warranty protection make the KIA the obvious winner to me. I’m 71 years old and have never purchased a “foreign” auto but with the price savings I may just change my mind. Cadillac, as well as Ford, should be worried about the new vehicles from KIA and Hyundai. The Telluride and Palisade will steal customers away from the Expedition and Escalade market, they better figure out how to deal with that quickly or they’ll lose a lot of market share.
fair comment
@@SamCarLegion Holy cow dude...you need to relax on the word fair.
Richard I got a kia Sportage my first foreign vehicle and I love it. Telluride is my next one. Oh and I've owned 2 cadillacs
JES Allen ......I know that KIA had a bad reputation for reliability issues on the models brought here when they first started selling vehicles in the US. Many people feel like you do, the vehicles are better for reliability and defect issues. If they weren’t you wouldn’t get a 5 year 60,000 mile warranty. When do expect to get your Telluride? Have a great day JES.
@@richardrybarczyk5522 hopefully by the end of the year. There is a waiting list and a 10 week delivery time here.
This was just a short review some features on each car. I have reviewed both of them and both videos are in the description box if you would like to watch them. Which one is better? I will leave that to you to decide. I love them both.
Telluride
If I’m paying over 60k for that Caddy it better have at least a 10in infotainment system.
Agreed
Cadillac or really GM needs to step their infotainment up. Bigger screen and get some dials back. That Q sucks and touch screen buttons it has are horrible.
@@jimcole2648 The've abandoned the CUE radio on all new models. I agree, the interface was glitchy and slow to boot in the winter
Its a reworked Chevy traverse. That crappy ass 8 inch info center is in most of their cars/trucks. GM is cheap. Also the motor mounted far forward transversely with FWD is a fail. Same cheap setup as in the chevy. This is way overpriced. The instrument cluster takes a real nose dive with the cheapest possible analog setup that is ridiculous at this price point. GM is going the wrong way with this. They think they will sell on brand loyalty but they have no brand loyalty anymore. Most of the older drivers went to Lexus decades ago. Only innovative vehicle they have made is the Z8 corvette. Everything else they make is absolutely overpriced crap.
I like how the Kia looks different instead of the bland crossover look that everyone else does.
Quiet mode is available in every car. It’s called “Fade”.
great contribution....LOL
KIA way Better, and better looking 👍
Good to know
Better? No. Better bargain. Yes!
Kia is not a prestige brand.
Kia copied Cadillacs design of their previous gen Escalade.
Just like they copied Mercedes Benz with their Kia amanti.
@@DeeeBeee123 Better? Yes. In every way.
It looks like Cadillac and Kia switched faces. The new Cadillac XTC looks like a Kia, while the Telluride looks like its freshly made from Cadillac! Lol
I own a Telluride and never thought I would buy a Kia! I absolutely LOVE this vehicle. This reviewer didn't even pick the highest model of Telluride or show the Prestige package which blows away that cadillacs interior and still cost way less. Even if price and warranty were the same (and these two factors are way in favor of the KIA) the Kia would still win!
Kia has fake wood
GM is gonna go bankrupt.
This was a really good video. Both of these vehicles look great
Thank you.
Have been driving Hyundai products in and off since 1981, in Korea and in the USA. Hyundai has made up their initial quality deficit and their styling is now as good as anybody’s.
If Hyundai isn’t going to offer turbo or larger engines on these, they should make them buildable, like Dinan is for BMW. Being able to add engine mods that will deliver up to 100 more horses would be a selling point.
Can’t wait to see what the Genesis version looks like.
The Kia looks more like a Cadillac than the actual XT6 does.
That is because Kia copied the previous generation of Escalades. This Kia looks like a cheap knock off wanna be luxury escalade 😂
with those square daytime running lights it actually looks like a GMC Yukon Denali
@@firstlast7613 Kia didn't copy anyone. Don't be upset just because you can't afford the Telluride 💁.
The Kia all the way
Na
How often do we fold third row seats, is it matter electric or manual?
vzheka1981 I wouldn't even utilize the 3rd row; for me, it would always remain folded down. I want the vehicle just because it's pretty, and a Kia.
That's my style too to standing like this on tyres of both vehicles
The Cadillac looks more elegant and premium. In 5 years the XT6 will still look elegant, the Telluride will look like crap.
I'd be embarrassed as Hell, if I called for Executive Black car pick up and other Executive drivers showed up in beautiful Black Cadillac XT6, Mercedes GLS, Audi Q8, Lincoln Aviator and my driver showed up in a damn KIA Telluride.
The Cadillac SHOULD look more elegant and premium based upon the barrier for entry alone. That said, you have missed the point most people are making. The Cadillac for the $$s does not compete with the Telluride and all its features at 15-20k more for far less substance whether you want to admit that or not. ...once you and your crew got into the exec black Caddy and your 6th passenger had to get into the back you might also be singing a different tune.😊👍
I used to love Chevrolet and Caddilac until my 2010 Chevy impala nightmare. Cheap electronics and constant failure. I've talked to other owners of Chevy traverse with similar issues. Mostly I talked to them as we were in the mechanics waiting room. The Caddilac will probably be better on the test drive but the Kia won't keep you in the shop. Also the depreciation on Caddilacs is ridiculous. I'm not paying 70k for a vehicle that will be worth 20k less as I drive it off the lot and a year or two later cheaper than the car to which it platform came from.
Oh no kias will keep u in shop
Kia will too keep u in the shop
just by having them side by side u know the KIA is better just on looks
I agree Kia is really stepping their game
Kia being compared to cadillac is sad for cadillac. Cadillac now days is crap. Kia has come a long way but definetly needs time to prove itself as a brand.
Sometimes is good to give prospective
I owned a 2010 Cadillac SRX for only 18 months and it was a beautiful car inside and out BUT! It was in the shop seven times for various issues including chrome pieces falling off the outside mirrors, the windshield cracking from the side on it's own and the A/C stopped working. It was in dealership four times for the A/C alone until finally on the third try they said they replaced the whole system. Yet a few days later the A/c stopped functioning again and I can't live without it here in Florida! I don't recall what the last fix was but it was minor but made me think it was a minor issue to begin with before they replaced the whole system! I'm now on my 2nd Ford F150 crew cab a 2012 Platinum Edition and now a 2018 Lariat fully loaded and neither F150 was ever in the shop for anything other than scheduled maintenance! I just may consider this Kia or the new Hyundai Palisade in the future...
Sorry to hear that.
American cars reliability has gotten worse
Thanks for the share on this Peter! This is a large part of the equation for me. The quality of the surfaces and fit and finish always scared me with Caddy.
For any given day I'll take the Kia period.
When the 2021 Kia Carnival/Sedona comes out, you have to do a comparison video between that and the Telluride, it should be an interesting analysis.
Definitely
Kia. No need to think about it. Much better car especially when you get into maintenance.
You can’t be fucking serious 😂. The Cadillac interior, exterior, engine, and ride quality is light years beyond Kia. Stop lying to yourself, you don’t want to waste your life driving shitty kias.
Cool Kid Why would he lie to himself? He is not paid to say Kia is better besides I prefer the Kia too it’s not cuz the Cadiliac is bad but I just find the Kia more fun and stylish
I would also take the Kia
Overall after a full comparison the Kia Telluride is my choice too.
But no one can deny that the Cadillac XT6 is better when it comes to the interior quality especially the doors materials and dashboard I guess 90% of them are covered by leather .
@coolkid I suggest you go look up Cadillac they have Poor reliability and electric problems you probably can not even you afford a Kia telluride
The second row captain's chairs in the XT6 is an extra cost option. The standard second row seating is a 60/40 split bench that seats THREE, making the XT6 a SEVEN seater, not six. Get your facts straight if you're going to review cars accurately.
How much was the inside cabin noise test for the Telluride?
Which is better chevy traverse or kia telluride for lease
I am going to make that review soon :)
@@SamCarLegion Ok I'll be waiting for it
The Kia Telluride is the better deal and value for the money both vehicles are nice looking but on a common sense level on value the Telluride but I do like the front end of the Cadillac I wouldn't pay $60,000 for the Xt6 when you have a Dodge Durango fully loaded and Jeep grand Cherokee summit even I buy a real SUV like the new Lincoln Aviator I can go on Cadillac step up your game
Fair point.
@@SamCarLegion so what do you think about the comparison besides the Kia name just the vehicle
Who would've thought 20 years ago that a Kia would be legitimately compared to a Caddy?
I know right
This is Kia's 20th year in Canada, so 20 years ago, not at all.
The Cadillac blow it away
Kia looks more Cadillac style
Because it copied GMs suv design from the previous generation. Looks like a knock off Caddy
The Kia Telluride by far a much better SUV much more technology ultra-luxury plus the engine maintenance-free much longer then a GM Cadillac vehicle in 2 years that Cadillac will have engine problems I guarantee it believe it or not Kia and Hyundai engines are probably some of the best engineering engines out there maintenance-free
Fair comment. I respect that.
Than why do i have 2 caddies pushing over 250,000 with mobile 1 synthetic oil if there so unreliable? From a cadillac owners stand point, the truth is that the transmission will have to be replaced or rebuilt way before you ever have to deal with the power plant itself. Hub assembly on all GM cars are an issue & the infotainment system is subpar compared to others. Ive owned over 5 different model caddies in my lifetime & never had to replace the engine, or do anything besides the normal maintenance routine.
@@eyesofagemini7715 Horse crap. I have a 2011 SRX and had a 2013 CTS serviced by Cadillac dealership only. Both are horrible in reliability. Traded cts for mks and soon to go srx new lincoln cuv. Never again will i buy a Cadillac unless its a V8.
@@J-O-N-
Im truely sorry that the dealership robbed you. Unless i had a major mechanical issue, which i never ran across. I dont let them touch nothing & service the vehicle my damn self with the help of tuner friends of mine who also worked for dealerships in the past & they often dont do what you think they should & its pretty common for them to take your car out for a little test drive if you know what im trying to imply. Also ive never had a V-6 in any caddy ive owned so your unreliability issues are hard for me to understand. Crossover caddy truck smdh
Lets be real, true lacs are not in truck form & you bought into the name of it without really understanding the heritage that is now lost on todays consumer. My LT1 fleetwood with bolt on power adders is still sitting pretty with a vette motor as the powerplant. Cts-Vette motor also with bolt on upgrades pushing 710 rwp.
I stayed away from the front wheel drive cadillac because of the North star reliability issues, but in my opinion was still a decent powerplant if well taken care of & never ran hot. Real lacs have bulletproof motors that can handle punishment unlike the 4banger & 6s of todays time. The 08 to 13 cts 3.6 V-6 is a damn good variant in sport mode and i have a few friends that own them and never heard of issues other than normal wear & tear & what i mentioned earlier.
@@eyesofagemini7715
I come from a Cadillac family. Ive had Fleetwoods, Eldorados, Devilles and a few Escalades. The problem i have with newer models are the electronics don't hold up well. They're great looking and performing cars, I'm tired of all electrical problems in the newer models.
Can you please make a 2023 top trim comparison of xt6 and palisade calligraphy
In stead of getting a Kia I would wait for the 2020 Escalade.
You missed that fact that the Kia rear trunk opens automatically after a few seconds if you have the key with you. Can be disengaged as well.
Yes correct
I like the looks of both, but I think the Cadillac has the edge overall... looks more elegant like a Cadillac should. KIA as a brand has come a LONG way from my younger days when you would get laughed at for driving one, but I still wouldn't want to own a "KIA" anything personally.
SuchANiceGirl22 styling in the Cadillac is nice. But it has the horrible GM V6 found in the Traverse, Acadia, & Encore. You’ll put a lot of money into that engine.
@@levimohr3196 The basic design of the GM 3.6L is virtually the same as it's been for years, but improvements have been made internally since the early years to rectify the oil burning issues that plagued the older designs, which is what caused the timing chain failures you've probably heard about. They're a lot less needy now than they were.
Kia: to bad it's a Kia!
No wonder people still are embarrassed driving them and want to change their badges. Plus they have engines known to blow up!
Everyone hating on the Cadillac, but we have a ‘22 XT6 sport and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Ours is fully loaded and has all the luxury and quality that you’d ever need. We have 3 kids and it’s a ton of space and comfort for all of us. Nothing against the Telluride I actually really like them, but I wouldn’t trade our XT6 for it ever. Styling is all relative to the individual, but for us we liked the looks and interior of the Cadillac better.
KIA WIN
Kia win
It’s 47k where I live
Of course!
I'd get the KIA, then take the gawd awful name badges off the front and rear.
You for got in the xt6 there is also a release for the truck in the door also
This video is like comparing a real, quality vehicle version a car ordered from wish…LMFAO
VS*
I would consider buying the KIA if there was a way to get rid of those big ugly letters across the front.
There is!
The xt6 isn’t a redesign. Its the first xt6.
Both are really cool. I just prefer the Cadillac with all honesty. Just think it’s the better looking car with better interior quality, performance, and fuel economy. I like the adjustable suspension system the XT6 offers as well. Just my personal opinion. Kia has undoubtedly come a long way though. Their lineup is really impressive right now. Love the microphone feature you can get in the Telluride lol. Hope both do well in the crossover market nonetheless.
I like your take on this! Thanks for the comment.
Sam CarLegion My pleasure 👍
But when it comes to quality, i guarantee the Cadillac will be in the shop quicker and more than the Kia, Kia and Hyundai has won JD POWER TOP QUALITY AWARD 4YEARS in a row, that's over the whole automotive industry.
polofunk Nope. Hyundai/KIA reliability has dropped again. Those engine issues must be catching up with them🤷🏽♂️ www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2019/02/top-10-most-dependable-automakers-of-2019-j-d-power.html
Prestige too. Kia light and cheap. Pack in lots of tech but it’s not screws together right
KIA killed it by far!!! Technology, comfort, look and pricing is by far much better than the Cadillac. Not to mention 60K plus for a vehicle that only has a very limited group of buyers.
Not paying 60 k on a cheaply made Kia. U just seeing the face. This cheaply made underneath
I will take the Kia Telluride and save 10-15K... Kia is well known brand now! Kia has surpassed the initial quality of any domestic cars already.. And Cadillac doesn't pop up my head when I think about the quality or reliability...
Oh boy
I seen a telluride with the UK emblem here in California. They should be using that on all thier cars. Telluride is more appealing
Fair comment. Thanks
@Burns me up. Really? I was told by the owner it's the UK emblem. Even got a pic of it.
@Burns me up. photos.app.goo.gl/f3TDuAa1qPQgMn5U7
@Burns me up. I didn't bother to look if it was modified. Just went by what the owner said. And he mentioned a lot of the newer kias at that dealership have this emblem. So maybe Kia moving this way . Not sure...
@@DoritosResidue It's Kia's Korean Vintage "K" emblem. I have a set for my sportage. Most people don't know that Kia has two OEM emblems. The "K" is definitely cooler. :D
Both nice cars and good to see Kia really improve their lineup but honestly I see lotta tellurides and optimas on the road now. Almost like dime a dozen. Xt6 310hp is refreshing to see and I like interior and trim better. Looks more refined to me. An damn is it a looker with front grill and vertical leds!
I like the brand when it comes to a car caddi yes
Would have been a more useful comparison if it was the High Country version of the Traverse versus the SX version of the Telluride.
I will do this comparison just for you. And thank you for the idea.
I'll wait for the Lincoln aviator
That review is coming soon :)
If you want to pay $60-70k.
@@TheMuyjk1 I'd take the New Explorer over either of these. RWD based, better powertrains, more towing capability, etc.
It looks like a minivan with an extended hood
When you figure in the warranty, resale value and Build quality. I would take the KIA
I have alway thought that it was a dumb idea for many companies to mimic Chrysler (believe invented by Denso Corp.) on that "foot waving open tailgate" feature...! One had to step pretty close to the back of the tailgate and lift and wave one foot then had to quickly step back to give way to the tailgate to open...
Some people like it. Useful? Not so much
I watched somebody wave their foot 5 times to make it happen. Moron. With Kia, you just walk up to the back of your Kia, and wait 3 seconds. Voila, door opens without ever touching anything.
redrock861, in my opinion, finally KIA got this right and that should be the way to go...
When it comes to luxury cars, a lot of the price comes from the brand name, sure there’s some cool features but unless you have to money to blow don’t get a Cadillac
excellent and relevant review....great job comparing all aspects of these vehicles!!
You also forgot to talk about the warranty And services
I bought the 2022 XT6, I wanted longevity.
Then you need to look at the hyundai palisade
Telluride is amazing. Lookwise, I'd put it right next to the VW Touareg.
Or the Lincoln Aviator
The Kia will outlast that GM (Generic Motors) JUNK!!!
No they won’t they’re very similar in reliability if you don’t know that then you’re not educated.
Cool Kid NO DO YOUR RESEARCH ASS CLOWN!!, Consumer Reports has the Generic Motors over priced Escalade the worst quality suv made in the last four years. Clown.
@@coolkid7151 GM sucks! Will never recommend buying one.
@@robertholmes7912 I can tell you're s ford guy🤣🤣. You sound mad because when you did your research, you saw ford below kia and gm in reliability.
Josh Mullinix Actually I recommend Honda or Toyota, American are crap!!
This Kia front lights look like it’s a older escalade
It looks like a cheap wannabe knock off of a Caddy 😂
2 more behemoths for wifey's to drive that can't handle them.
I know my Cadillac Service Manager at a personal level; I know his favorite color, his favorite sport team, the places he like to go for vacation, what he did last thanksgiving, etc etc etc. You know how I know all this? I spent a lot of time at the Cadillac workshop.
I hope you catch my drift.
Some people have asked me to compare it to a Traverse. Stay tuned is coming
honest input. Thanks for sharing
The headlights look like an after thought on the Kia.
I like them both but I like the KIA a little more. Never did I think I'd be saying that but KIA has stepped it up so much with the Stinger, K900 and Telluride!
Fair comment :)
You’re joking right
When describing the XT6, he said '...Completely redesigned front...' !!?? It's not a redesign; it's a NEW design as there was no previous model.
Good catch.
I love my 2021 xt6
After this video, I will choose kia, because, price, technology and warranty's.
Ps.did kia have better mpg and safety ratings.???
Similar ratings
Brilliant video 🎥👍 beautiful cars but In this case my choice would be Cadillac
Thank youa
Same here
Well if you care about how it drive Cadillac is the choice. Kia is ok , but from working there selling parts I've got to drive one they are very nice, but they shift so slow. And for that reason alone I would get the Cadillac plus the seats are more comfortable in the xt6
Don't need a cam in the mirror. It has 360 in the radio
Oh yeah and the Telluride? I actually like it a lot!
I love Cadillac, but that Kia is very stylish. Cadillac is really lacking in style. Its bland to me.
The Telluride should be compared to a Explorer and not a Cadillac, don't no why all these car reviews are trying to make Kia and Hyundai some luxury vehicles. Sat in a Telluride the other day, it was on my list don't look as good in person inside or outside. Waiting for the Explorer ST. Seen one on back of the transport truck the last week looks much better in person, I haven't been on the inside yet.
I will do that too :)
I agree. I don't understand why people are comparing Kia/Hyundai to luxury, especially considering Toyota, Honda, and Ford are way better.
I have owned 2 cadillacs, Lexus and a kia. I take the kia any day. Better vehicle by far
@@ddg2256 because it compares or beats those cars in every category, that's why it won every award worth winning this year. Its also why (pre pandemic) you couldn't even get one without paying thousands over MSRP.
The KIA Soul has a bigger infotainment screen than this Cadillac. Man, that's sad.
Exterior: telluride
Interior: xt6
xt6 is all luxury and you can tell that from that 60g price point it does not even compare with the lower priced kia telluride not really a fair comparison i love the telluride but if i had a choice with money being no means then i would absolutely take the more refined luxurious caddi xt6
Exactly!
Go for a test drive, you will definitely change your mind. Lol
