Hyundai is still working out the details, but it’s not alone. Kia announced last month it’s looking into offering a truck as well. A new report from CarsGuide says the two automakers could offer their trucks in a variety of body styles.

Doesn't Range Rover make a competitor to the Jeep Wrangler called the 2020 Discovery?

The Discovery isn't even remotely in the same league as a Wrangler. The Discovery is a softroader for wealthy soccer moms with #RBF.

They better give these "trucks" decent tires. The Telluride looks ridiculous with its big, wide body sitting on top of bicycle tires.

Average consumers like the Pilot/MDX and the Traverse/Enclave and Pathfinder and Explorer. This is where the Telluride/Palisade sits in the market. An Avalanche-like variant will be well-received.
