• Seating for up to eight, with second-row captain's chairs available on most trims.

• Standard Hyundai SmartSense safety tech on every trim, from the SE to the top-tier Calligraphy.

Whether you're hauling the kids to practice, loading up for a weekend camping trip, or just running errands around town, this SUV has the space and confidence to handle it. With our no-pressure approach, finding the right trim for your family is refreshingly simple.

Power Options for the Hyundai Palisade Near Lexington, KY

This three-row gives you two ways to move. The standard 3.5-liter V6 puts out 287 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth 8-speed automatic. It's the kind of engine that merges onto the interstate without drama and handles a full load of passengers and gear with ease. Front-wheel drive comes standard, and Hyundai's HTRAC all-wheel drive is available on most trims for extra grip when the weather turns.

Prefer better fuel economy? The available 2.5-liter turbo hybrid produces 329 horsepower combined while returning an EPA-estimated 34 mpg combined in front-wheel-drive form. That means fewer stops at the pump on longer drives without giving up the muscle you want in a big SUV. The V6 can tow up to 5,000 pounds with the proper setup, so hitching a small camper or boat trailer stays well within reach.

Screens, Sound, and Smart Connections

Every trim comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so your phone links up the moment you climb in. Menus respond quickly and stay easy to read, whether you're pulling up directions or switching playlists. Higher trims add a matching 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster for a clean, modern look across the dash.

Six USB-C ports, two in every row, keep passengers charged on road trips, and available wireless charging handles your phone up front. Move up the lineup, and you'll find a 14-speaker Bose audio system, a surround-view camera for tight parking spots, and a head-up display on the Calligraphy that keeps key info in your line of sight.

Room to Stretch Out and Drive with Confidence

Families care about safety, and this SUV delivers. Hyundai SmartSense comes standard on every trim, bundling forward collision-avoidance assist, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot warning, and smart cruise control with stop-and-go. There are 10 airbags on board, including full-length side curtains that reach the third row, plus third-row seatbelt pretensioners you won't find in every competitor.

The cabin gets nicer as you climb the trim ladder. Heated second-row seats, a hands-free liftgate, tri-zone climate control, and available heated and ventilated front seats all make longer drives easier on everyone. The top Calligraphy trim adds Nappa leather and relaxation seats that recline with leg support, turning the second row into first-class territory.
