Hyundai Palisade overview

Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.

Design

The exterior of the new Palisade takes a more muscular approach, highlighted by a prominent, wide radiator grille flanked by distinctive headlight clusters. A high, flat hood and heavily sculpted wheel arches contribute to a rugged, substantial appearance. The overall dimensions have increased compared to its predecessor, measuring 5,060 mm in length and 1,980 mm in width, which not only gives it a commanding stance but also translates to better interior volume. Depending on the trim, the SUV sits on large 20-inch or 21-inch alloy wheels, enhancing its premium road presence.

Interior

Inside, the Palisade focuses on passenger comfort and digital integration. The dashboard is dominated by a modern setup featuring two 12.3-inch displays for the instrument cluster and infotainment system. A tall center console separates the front seats, housing a wireless charging pad and multiple USB ports. The cabin can be configured to seat seven, eight, or even nine passengers depending on the market and layout. Premium trims offer high-quality materials like Nappa leather upholstery and wood accents, along with available second-row seat massage functions and a panoramic sunroof.

Performance

The Palisade offers two main powertrain choices. The standard option is a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 281 horsepower and 421 Nm of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. For improved efficiency, a 2.5-liter turbocharged hybrid powertrain is available, generating a combined output of 334 horsepower and mated to a 6-speed automatic. The hybrid system has an estimated driving range of up to 1,020 km. Both powertrains can be equipped with an all-wheel-drive system to handle varied weather and road conditions.

Practicality

Built primarily for family duties, the Palisade provides a flexible and spacious interior. The availability of multiple seating configurations allows buyers to prioritize either maximum passenger capacity or second-row comfort with captain's chairs. Even with the rows in use, the vehicle offers a useful cargo volume, starting at 615 liters, which expands significantly when the rear seats are folded flat. Features like a smart power tailgate and multi-zone climate control add to its everyday usability.

Safety and tech

Hyundai has equipped the new Palisade with an extensive suite of technology and driver assistance systems. Notable innovations include a built-in dashcam, a fingerprint scanner for loading personalized driver profiles, and a remote smart parking assist that allows the vehicle to be maneuvered into tight spaces from outside. Active safety features are comprehensive, encompassing adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, and a surround-view monitor. A premium Bose audio system and a head-up display are also available on higher trims.

Buyer notes

When comparing trims like the Top and Calligraphy, buyers should consider their specific needs for luxury and style. The Calligraphy trim elevates the cabin with top-tier materials like Nappa leather and larger 21-inch wheels. Those prioritizing fuel economy and long driving range will find the new hybrid powertrain particularly appealing, though the standard 2.5L turbo provides ample power for highway driving. Exact equipment, seating configurations, and powertrain availability may vary by specific regional markets.
