New Hyundai Palisade

The 2021 Hyundai Palisade is a feast for the senses, with plush interior appointments, excellent smartphone integration, and a standard suite of driver safety aids. This three-row crossover SUV is the total package, bolstering your family road trips with roomy comfort and muscular towing capabilities.

Exterior Features

Outside, the Palisade is as rugged as it is stylish with it's big, eye-catching grille that makes a bold statement. Not to mention, its high stance and dramatic lines give this Hyundai an even more commanding presence. This three-row, midsize crossover SUV also comes standard with 18-inch alloy wheels, and a hands-free liftgate, to increase exterior style and convenience.

Interior Features

With its three roomy rows of seating, modern interior design, and upscale materials, the Palisade is one stylish family hauler. All three rows provide generous legroom and seating support, perfect for group travel. You can even add extra comforts to your Palisade, such as heated first- and second-row seats and premium leather upholstery.

From the driver’s seat, you’ll enjoy impressive visibility and an easy reach to important dash controls. This seat, along with the front passenger seat, is nicely contoured and cushioned, so long drives never get old.

Technology

Your new Palisade is as smartphone-friendly as it gets. Each trim model comes standard with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto: smartphone integration features that display apps on the standard 8-inch touch-screen infotainment interface. With five USB ports—three for the front seats and two in the second row—everyone can maintain healthy battery levels for their favorite devices.

Hyundai’s Rear Seat Quiet Mode is great for families; it silences the speakers in the second and third rows which comes in handy when your little ones are taking a backseat nap. It’s also great for older kids who are listening to their own entertainment via headphones.

Climb the Palisade trim levels for even more in in-cabin technology. Upgrades include a 12-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system and a head-up display that projects stats onto the windshield. For more convenience, add third-row USB outlets and the wireless smartphone charging pad.

Safety and Security

Each Palisade trim model comes standard with a bundle of safety aids to help keep you free and clear of danger. For instance, the forward collision mitigation system can sense an oncoming crash and will automatically apply the brakes as needed. When you’re cruising busy downtown streets after dark, the pedestrian detection feature keeps you extra alert.

The Palisade speaks to commuters with its adaptive cruise control system: technology that automatically adjusts cruising speed to preserve a safe distance from traffic up ahead. If you find yourself losing focus on a long drive, the lane-keeping assist system senses accidental drift and gently corrects your course.

In addition to its standard safety lineup, the Palisade offers extra protection with a range of optional features. The blind-spot monitoring system uses radar to sense a vehicle that’s lurking out of sight and the blind-spot camera system actually displays the blind-spot that corresponds with each turn signal. Additionally, with Blue Link Connected Car emergency telematics, it’s easy to call for help after a collision or unexpected breakdown.

Power and Performance

There’s a lot to love about the Palisade’s sporty performance. Hyundai’s midsize crossover SUV is pretty quick, supplying generous power for confident passing maneuvers. The Palisade’s standard V6 engine is also handy on the trail, where optional all-wheel drive helps you power over soft surfaces.

Fuel Economy

The 2021 Palisade blends seamless power with impressive efficiency. EPA ratings vary slightly, depending on whether or not you select all-wheel drive:

• FWD: 22 mpg combined (19 city/26 highway mpg)
• AWD: 21 mpg combined (19/24 mpg)

Towing Capabilities

Properly equipped, your 2021 Hyundai Palisade can tow up to 5,000 pounds. That’s great news for anyone with his and hers Jet Skis or a medium-size boat! The Palisade will even lug a small camper around so, any way you look at it, the Palisade provides maximum potential for adventure.
