Great vehicle for the money.

We will be retiring soon and wanted a multi purpose vehicle. We are both very impressed with the Palisade. We can travel comfortably and drive for everyday use as well.

Best 3 row SUV under $50k

We did a ton of research on 3 row SUVs, and test drove almost a dozen different ones, both new and used. The Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy was one of the most comfortable, well equipped SUVs we found. The interior passenger space was great, particularly the 3rd row. I am 6'4", and even with the driver seat and 2nd row seat adjusted for my height I was still able to sit in the 3rd row seat pretty comfortably. The interior materials were far better than many SUVs much more expensive. The naturally aspirated 3.8 feels very confident in this light vehicle, and while it may not win any drag races it gives more than enough power to pass or get up to freeway speeds easily and quickly. This car has the absolute most number of USB, 110V and 12V outlets for all 3 rows I saw in any vehicle. The tech package is also outstanding, with a crisp, clear full digital gauge cluster and a super wide touch screen display. The sound system is outstanding. Having fully adjustable 2nd row seats is great for adjusting for passengers, and the power folding and reclining 3rd row seats makes sure all 7 passengers are well accommodated.

BANG FOR YOUR BUCK

The standard equipment in my Hyundai Palisade Caligraphy far surpasses any other SUV in the same price range. The perforated leather seats, the technology, ie..Heads Up Display and Apple Play. I shopped many SUV's recently prior to purchasing a fully loaded Palisade for a few thousand less with more unimaginable technology being standard features.

ambient lighting

at level 3 or 4 lights go out completely when put in drive. when on level 10 lights go to about 5 when put in drive. there is a power draw from the electric transmission on the ambient lighting. I have had the vehicle 6 days.

Excellent design, my grandkids love the interior.

My first SUV thus far has met even exceeded all my expectations. My grandson loves the space and I feel that my extensive research has paid off. I test drove a Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander but does not come close to the fit and finish of my Palisade Limited or the technology of these competing SUVs so pale in comparison. I had owned Hondas and Toyotas for most of my adult life but the Hyundai Palisade SUV AWD is leaps and bounds ahead in ride, comfort, design and technology.

LOVE my Palisade

This car has been amazing. It is good on fuel and a comfortable ride. It has great safety features that make you feel safe. I enjoy the snow mode when it snows. For long drives the adaptive cruise control is great. I drove about 200 miles on the freeway and did not hit my accelerator or brake at all. The car increased and decreased based on the cars around me.

Most luxurious car I have ever owned.

Perfect blend of decadence and practicality. And tens of thousands of dollars less expensive than luxury nameplates with fewer features. Exceptionally intuitive infotainment system, and every safely feature comes standard.
