Automotive Press Praise
Edmunds wrote: “Of the many choices in the class, the all-new 2020 Hyundai Palisade has a ton of potential to be a top pick. Our current front-runner is the Kia Telluride, which shares a lot of its basic framework and engine with the Palisade. These two midsize SUVs are similar enough for us to say the decision will come down to preference, with the Palisade being more luxurious and the Telluride having more attitude.”
The 2020 Hyundai Palisade replaces last year’s Santa Fe XL. The Palisade is larger than the Santa Fe XL, and it comes in three trim levels, listed as SE, SEL and Limited. Powering the Palisade is a 3.8-liter V6 engine that generates 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, teamed to an eight-speed automatic gearbox. Front-wheel drive is standard across the lineup, and all-wheel drive is available.
Standard features on the base SE trim include keyless access, push-button start, smart cruise control, automatic headlights, one-touch sliding second-row seats, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an 8-inch infotainment display. Standard safety features include lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and seven airbags. Palisade owners will have the confidence that comes with Hyundai’s exceptional 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
The 2020 Palisade is very safe. The Palisade received the highest score of Good in all IIHS crash tests, and the agency named it a Top Safety Pick+ model. The Palisade hasn’t been reviewed by the NHTSA as of this writing.
EPA-estimated fuel economy for the 2020 Hyundai Palisade is rated at 19/26 mpg with front-wheel drive and 19 24 mpg for models with all-wheel drive.*
The standard configuration seats eight passengers and features a second-row bench seat. Buyers can select the available captain’s chair that brings the total seating capacity to seven. The 2020 Palisade is capable of towing a maximum of 5,000 pounds.
Selectable driving modes allow the Palisade to drive optimally for every driving style. Drivers can choose between ECO, Comfort, Sport and Smart modes. The latter automatically selects the best mode based on the way the Palisade is being driven. All-wheel-drive models get an additional Snow Mode.
