Review: 2023 Hyundai Palisade<\/h4>\n

Big SUV gets rebooted.<\/p>\n

The Hyundai Palisade has been one of the brand\u2019s most popular and highly acclaimed models since it went on sale in 2020, and now it\u2019s been updated for 2023 with a few significant upgrades to keep it near the top of the three-row crossover SUV segment.<\/p>\n

The Palisade\u2019s exterior was given a light refresh with a new grille and rear fascia, while the interior received a similarly subtle makeover and was dressed with higher quality materials.<\/p>\n

Starting prices range from $36,545 to $52,395 across five trim levels that all offer the choice of front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive and come with either seven or eight passenger seating.<\/p>\n

A new mid-level Palisade XRT brings rugged styling with faux skid plates, rocker panel protection and dark finish trim but remains mechanically identical to the other models with 7.9-inches of ground clearance that\u2019s fine for dirt roads and snow but doesn\u2019t add anything to make it a hardcore off-roader.<\/p>\n

The Palisade’s 291-horsepower V6 and eight-speed transmission carry over from the outgoing version. Highway fuel economy has been improved from 26 to 27 mpg with front-wheel drive and from 24 to 25 mpg with all-wheel drive, which matches up well to most of its competitors but trails the Toyota Highlander Hybrid’s combined 35\/34 mpg rating by a wide margin.<\/p>\n

\n The Palisade can tow up to 5,000 pounds.
\n (Hyundai)<\/p>\n

All Palisades are rated to tow up to 5,000 pounds, but the all-wheel drive versions get a special Tow Mode for the drivetrain programmed to hold on to gears longer and shift less often when pulling a heavy load.<\/p>\n

New features include an available WiFi hotspot, USB-C ports throughout the cabin, heated third-row seats and a massaging driver\u2019s seat. Its overall comfort and refinement remain among the best in class, both around town and on the highway.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Palisade is one of the roomiest vehicles in the three-row crossover SUV class.
\n (Hyundai)<\/p>\n

There are adult amounts of legroom in all three rows, and the cargo area is big enough for a few bags even with the third-row seats in their upright position. Below it, you\u2019ll find a particularly deep wheelbarrow storage area.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Palisade has a generous wheelbarrow underfloor storage compartment.

A 360-degree camera on top models displays on the standard 12-inch infotainment system. Spot monitoring cameras pop up in the instrument panel. And Hyundai\u2019s Highway Driving Assistant lane centering cruise control and the Hyundai Digital Key turns a smartphone or smartwatch into a key that can be sent to other devices.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Palisade combines a large array of physical controls with a 12-inch touchscreen display.

But it\u2019s the regular keyfob that lets you drive the Palisade in a very different way.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s used for the Remote Smart Parking Assist feature that can pull the Palisade into or out of a tight parking space while you\u2019re standing nearby, but it\u2019s much nicer being inside it.<\/p>\n
