Palisade prices start at $37,735.00
Is the Hyundai Palisade all new as of 2024?
No, the Hyundai Palisade is not all-new for 2024. Instead, it receives minor updates and a new trim level. The most notable change is the introduction of the Calligraphy Night Edition, which features blacked-out exterior trim, unique black wheels, black roof rails, and a black leather interior. Other updates include dual-zone front and single-zone rear automatic climate control becoming standard on the base SE trim, rear-side window shades now included on the XRT trim, and ambient interior lighting added to the Limited trim. These changes refine the existing model rather than making it a completely new vehicle.
HYUNDAI Palisade Trim levels
The Hyundai Palisade is offered in six trim levels:
- SE
- SEL
- XRT
- Limited
- Calligraphy (as tested)
- Calligraphy Night Edition
MSRP as tested $53,650.00 including destination charges.

What engine comes with the Hyundai Palisade?
The Hyundai Palisade comes with a 3.8-liter V6 engine, producing 291 horsepower. It is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, which can be manually shifted using steering-wheel-mounted paddles for added driver involvement.
The Hyundai Palisade comes standard with front-wheel drive, while all-wheel drive is available as an option on the SE, SEL, and Limited trims. However, the top-tier Calligraphy trim includes all-wheel drive as standard. Every Palisade is equipped with a transmission cooler, trailer pre-wiring, and sway control. When fitted with a dealer-installed trailer hitch, it has a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds.
What are the interior features of the HYUNDAI Palisade?
The Hyundai Palisade offers a spacious interior with seating for up to eight passengers in the SE and SEL trims, while the Limited and Calligraphy trims feature second-row captain’s chairs, reducing capacity to seven. Access to the third row is made easier with a button that moves the second-row seats forward. Power-folding second- and third-row seats are available on the SEL and come standard on the Limited and Calligraphy trims. The cabin provides a quiet ride by minimizing road noise, though some wind noise can be heard through the doors.
Every Hyundai Palisade comes equipped with a 12.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system featuring Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, in-dash navigation, SiriusXM satellite radio, and Bluetooth connectivity. The SUV offers up to seven USB ports, and it allows two Bluetooth devices to connect at the same time. With Hyundai’s Blue Link app service, owners can remotely lock, unlock, and start the vehicle using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.
How does the HYUNDAI Palisade Drive?
I have two perspectives to answer this question:
As a fairly tall, family man, It continues to be the ultimate family SUV. The ride remains smooth and composed, with just the right ride height—elevated enough for a confident view of the road but not too high to make loading kids or cargo a hassle.
As a car enthusiast, It still delivers that near-luxury SUV feel. The squared-off front end continues to evolve Hyundai’s design language, giving it a more distinctive and muscular presence on the road. While it’s not a performance SUV, the 3.8-liter V6 provides solid power, and the overall driving experience is refined and confident.
Final thoughts
It delivers everything you want in a larger SUV—comfort, space, technology, and a premium feel—all at the right price. With added thoughtful standard features across the lineup, Hyundai keeps refining an already well-rounded SUV.
