I’ll keep my non turbo highlander, thank you very much.

The Hyundai 3.8 in the Palisade/Telluride doesn't have a turbo.

If I had a new Toyota Highlander I'd keep it too! From first hand experience I know they are extremely reliable vehicles.

BUT, if I were looking at new SUVs, the non turbo equipped Telluride/Palisade would get my attention for sure.

I believe Kia/Hyundai group is gonna have a huge impact in the automotive world. I see a lot of Kia Hyundai cars out on the roads. People are buying them and truthfully they ,make a pretty good car. Yes they have recalls. So did lexus and MB and BMW and everyone else

You can't hardly go anywhere here and not see one. It's not what you envision as a cheap import. My nephew is considering one as they already have a Hyundai sedan and love it. I think they hit a home run with this one providing reliability doesn't crater.

I'm waiting to see it also, but worried a bit about the pricing. Initial estimates are pretty high for a well equipped version.
