The 2023 Hyundai Palisade is sold in five trims: SE, SEL, XRT, Limited, and Calligraphy. On the SE, you get LED headlights and 18-inch alloy wheels. The SEL adds roof rails and a hands-free liftgate to make cargo options easier for everyone. Front and rear skid plates, an XRT-specific dark exterior trim, a sunroof, black roof rails, and special 20-inch alloy wheels are standard on the XRT. Moving up to the Limited adds automatic wipers and a dual-pane sunroof. Finally, the Calligraphy upgrades everything with a unique grille, front and rear fascias, and wheels for an attention-demanding style.

Regardless of the trim you select, you'll find the same engine under the hood of each 2023 Hyundai Palisade. You get a 3.8-liter V-6 matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission to deliver 291 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. The Palisade offers an EPA estimate of 25 to 27 mpg for highway driving, giving you more time between gas station visits. Idle stop-and-go helps conserve fuel by shutting down the engine while idling at a stop sign or light.

Hyundai has packed the 2023 Palisade with performance-enhancing features to improve the driving experience. Front-wheel drive is standard across each of the trims, but you can trade that out for an all-wheel-drive system with better traction and control over various conditions. The drive mode select system lets you customize your drive to provide optimal performance over gravel, mud, snow, and more. The Palisade can haul up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped, letting you bring the recreational toys out for a weekend adventure.

The cabin of the 2023 Hyundai Palisade was created with everyone's comfort in mind. The SE features an integrated navigation system, front- and second-row USB ports, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. On the SEL, you get wireless charging, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated and power-adjustable front seats, and second-row captain's chairs. Moving up to the Limited adds leather upholstery and a power-folding, heated third row. The Calligraphy upgrades you with interior ambient lighting, premium leather upholstery, massage functions on the driver's seat, and a touchscreen interface for climate controls.

Hyundai knows drivers consider safety and driver-assistance features when selecting their next vehicle, so the 2023 Palisade is packed. Standard features include an advanced airbag system, lane-keeping assist, rear parking sensors, forward collision mitigation, adaptive cruise control, and a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert. You can also get a lane-keeping system, 360-degree camera system, blind-spot camera, head-up display, rear parking collision avoidance, and Smart Parking Assist on the higher trims.
