We can get your 2022 Kia Telluride set up with a Thule roof rack, and I verified for you that the correct parts that fit your vehicle are the following:
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Silver # TH711400 or Black # TH711420
- Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710601
- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet # TH77JV
The Thule rack is a really smart choice for your Telluride because it is quiet, easy to use, and durable (not to mention looks really cool). The WingBar Evo crossbars are so quiet for a couple of reasons, starting with their aerodynamic shape, but also because they have what are called WindDiffusers on top, which are rubber strips with small ridges. What they do is help direct air flow over the crossbar, which in turn greatly minimize wind noise that you would hear with other crossbars.
And as for durability, the WingBars are constructed from aluminum which means they'll never rust, and the crossbars (as well as the rest of the components) come with a lifetime warranty to ensure you never have to worry about the parts wearing out over time - they won't. The only other thing I recommend is adding locks to the feet to secure the rack to your Sorento, which you can do with the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400.
