What features are missing on your Telluride that you wish Kia would add to future models?
- Thread starter KiaMom
- Start date
Would be helpful if we all indicated which trim level the wishlist items are for as some have done...
SXP
- Remote start on the key fob (windows open/close on fob would be nice, too)
- Articulating headlights and cornering lights like the VW Tiguan SEL Premium (the corning lights are very nice)
- Ability to have the fogs always on when the vehicle is on (i.e. on with DRLs, low and high beam)
- Someone said aux input - from the Kia website today - but I think this is wrong
- ability to use the forward/rearward facing cameras as 'dashcams' and ability to download recordings
- full digital dash (like VW/Audi & Palisade) with full customization
- some kind of filler panel for space between folder down captain's chairs
- a 'Prestige' badge that could be added under the SX badge

Contacted Shark Racing - here's their reply:

One of the major issues for us about the Telluride is that it is currently not sold in Korea, so we have no way of prototyping parts for it. There is a rumor that Kia will begin selling it in Korea in November or December, but this is far from a sure thing.
The silver lining is, for the three modules that you listed, the wires needed from the car to splice into the module are a known function. If there is someone in the forums who is knowledgeable enough with car wiring that they would be comfortable with working with us, we can work with them on finding out the wiring solution.
*****
So there's hope for these:
- Proximity Smart Door Lock Module
- ISG and Auto-Hold Memory Module
- Heated and Cooled Seats Memory Module
Anyone know where we can get wiring diagrams...?
FWIW

Hi
If I read this correctly --I also agree -- with all those camera's on the vehicle -- dump video into a hard drive ...as a perfect dash cam(s). Then have some way to pull out and make travel video's - or in my case - look at those idiots crossing 3 lanes of traffic to save 5 seconds of travel time.

I was going to buy my 4th pilot but opted for the Telluride SX. I felt the ride is superior to the pilot. Listed are a few items included on the pilot I miss. They're not included in the Telluride.
1. Remote start with FOB.
2. DVD player for the kids.
3. Carpeting above "builder grade"
4. Roll windows down with FOB.
5. Trailer wiring for 7 pin connector & harness wiring for brakes.
6. Store music files for playback.
7. SX: more color options. SX only - white black green silver. Bland,,,,
8. More cupholders
9. More storage for stuff. The smartphone charger is nice but it's the one flat. spot. My pilot had many places to store things.
Edit:
6 months later I still like the car! I get stopped to ask my opinion of the car frequently.

YES PLEASE!!! I keep forgetting to lock my car due to the fact that I am so accustomed to not having to 
I have the 2021 SX Prestige and I wish the Telluride had:
1) LCD rear view mirror like the Cadillac Escalade
2) Rear exterior door handles that illuminates, just like the front door handles do
3) Auto lock feature when exiting the car
4) Options for upgraded brakes
5) Rear window wiper tucked under the spoiler
6) Lane changing assist to be displayed on the center infotainment screen and not on the cluster
7) Digital cluster
8) Additional buttons so the Midrow captain chairs to fully fold down. The button is located in the very back
