Final Call: 2025 Hyundai Palisade is Being Sold at a Steal
View post: Bugatti's Stunning New Factory Is Ready For The Tourbillon View post: Hyundai Isn't Going to Like the 2026 Ford Explorer's Price Cuts View post: Why Cheap New Cars Are Disappearing in 2025 A Consistent Hot-Seller for Hyundai Ever since its introduction to the US market in 2019, the Hyundai Palisade has consistently sold well, with its strongest sales performance in 2024 when it recorded over 110,000 units delivered. That momentum continues well into 2025; in the first half of the year, Hyundai sold 439,280 vehicles – a 10 % increase over the same period in 2024, marking the strongest opening six months in company history. Over 57,000 of those were Palisades. That success underscores why SUVs like the Palisade are in such high demand. But as Hyundai readies the next-generation model, the value proposition of the outgoing 2025 Palisade is becoming irresistible. For buyers who've set their sights on a three-row SUV that blends comfort, capability, and modern tech, now may be the smartest time to buy – before the model is replaced and prices rebound. Discounts for the 2025 Palisade are Tempting Listings for the 2025 Palisade on right now reveal attractive discounts. A 2025 SEL Premium is listed at $45,004, marked down from an MSRP of $48,315. A base SE model starts at $38,574, slightly undercutting its official price by about $1,374. Meanwhile, a fully loaded Calligraphy Night Edition is listed for $52,589, offering nearly $2,750 in savings off its typical $56,889 price. Across multiple trims, discounts range from $1,000 to well over $5,000. That said, the outgoing Palisade is a tempting proposition, especially for buyers looking to score features like adaptive cruise control, three-zone climate, heated and ventilated seating, large-format infotainment screens, and high-end interior finishes, without paying new-generation premiums. With inventory transitioning soon, now may be the best window to get a richly equipped three-row SUV at a significantly reduced cost. The New‑Gen 2026 Palisade is Worth the Wait, Too The 2026 Palisade arrives this summer with substantial upgrades, especially in refinement and technology, though with slightly higher pricing. The updated model debuts at $38,935 for the SE FWD base (just $1,735 above the 2025 model), while the range-topping Calligraphy AWD climbs to $56,060 for gas models. The all-new Hybrid variant starts at $43,660 (Blue SEL FWD) and tops out at $58,280 (Calligraphy AWD). Fully loaded hybrids and the rugged XRT PRO trim (with lifted suspension, all-terrain tires, and mud/sand/snow modes) provide premium SUV capabilities starting in the low‑$50,000 range. Inside, buyers get twin 12.3‑inch digital displays, USB‑C ports in all three rows, and optional relaxation seats with deployable leg rests, bringing luxury that belies its price point. If you're in the market now, the outgoing 2025 Palisade offers exceptional value at discounted pricing despite generous equipment levels. But if you want the latest tech, hybrid efficiency (30 mpg+), and the enhanced ride quality of the new generation, waiting for the 2026 Palisade – and factoring in its modest price bump – could be well worth it. Make sure to shop around and choose based on whether you prioritize immediate savings or the improvements on the new-generation model. About the Author Jacob Oliva View Profile

2026 Hyundai Palisade: V6 and diesel to be axed in favour of four-cylinder and hybrid
Details of the 2026 Hyundai Palisade have been uncovered ahead of second-generation large flagship SUV's scheduled Australian arrival in late 2025. The new Palisade had already been confirmed to bring a hybrid powertrain for the first time – replacing the existing 2.2-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder – in order to rival the Toyota Kluger, and Hyundai had previously also said a 2.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine was "under study" for Australia. Now Australian government certification documents confirm the next Palisade will offer a full range of front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive options, powered by both hybrid and non-hybrid 2.5-litre turbo-petrol powertrains. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. No other engines are included in the filing, signalling the end of not only diesel power but also the 3.8-litre petrol V6 from the new Palisade lineup. The Australian Design Rule documents also show the next-generation Palisade, codenamed 'LX3', has again been approved in both seven- and eight-seat interior configurations. Hyundai Australia could not share any details on the new Santa Fe's powertrain options or otherwise when contacted by CarExpert. The Palisade HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) has been granted approval in four model grades – seven-seat front-drive and AWD, and eight-seat FWD and AWD. The Palisade HEV is already on sale in the US, where it's offered in both FWD and AWD layouts, both priced $US1000 ($1537) higher than equivalent petrol-powered versions. In Australia, the HEV is expected to be priced similarly to the existing diesel Palisade, which is currently priced from $70,800 before on-road costs, although Hyundai is currently offering drive-away deals on certain variants. The hybrid system comprises the Hyundai group's 2.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine (T-GDI) and six-speed torque-convertor automatic transmission, but adds a single electric motor powered by a 1.65kWh lithium-ion battery. US-market Palisade hybrids are rated at 258hp (245kW) and 339lb-ft (460Nm) of torque, and while these figures cannot be directly carried over to Australian vehicles, our Palisade hybrid should still out-muscle the turbo-diesel's 147kW/440Nm outputs. That will also make it more powerful than the 3.8-litre V6 in the current model, which makes 217kW/355Nm and has official combined fuel consumption figures of between 10.8-11.1L/100km. Based on overseas specs, the Palisade HEV will be marginally thirstier than the diesel, with average consumption of 8.8L/100km against the diesel's 8.6-8.8L/100km. The Palisade's non-hybrid 2.5-litre turbo-petrol four – already seen under the bonnet of the Hyundai Sonata N Line in Australia, where it makes 213kW/422Nm – has also been approved in seven and eight-seat Palisade, in both FWD and AWD forms. ADR documents also confirm the second-generation Palisade will be larger than its predecessor in almost every dimension, growing an additional 65mm to 5060mm in length on a 70mm longer (2970mm) wheelbase. Overseas specs show no change in cargo volume or cabin space between petrol and hybrid versions. The cabin is expected to feature a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, plus a more premium look including 'pixel' lighting elements. Further details are expected to be confirmed by Hyundai Australia as the MkII Palisade's Australian arrival – scheduled between October and December this year – draws near.

The 2026 Hyundai Palisade Costs More, But Delivers More Too
Hyundai has officially introduced the second-generation Palisade, and while the 2026 Hyundai Palisade price has increased, so has what the SUV brings to the table. From enhanced design and digital upgrades to the debut of a hybrid powertrain, the new model aims to justify its higher cost with meaningful improvements. New Pricing Across the Lineup The base 2026 Palisade SE, featuring a front-wheel-drive system and a 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 287 horsepower and 282 Nm of torque, starts at $40,430 with destination included. That's $1,735 more than the 2025 model. The pricing structure has shifted throughout the range: SE: $40,430 (SAR 151,612) SEL: $42,935 (SAR 161,006) SEL Convenience: $44,365 (SAR 166,369) SEL Premium: $46,295 (SAR 173,606) Limited: $50,765 (SAR 190,543) XRT Pro (off-road): $50,865 (SAR 190,994) Calligraphy (luxury): $55,555 (SAR 208,333) Each trim level sees a modest price bump, but the new features aim to deliver more than just visual changes. Larger, Smarter, and More Refined Visually, the 2026 Palisade takes on a more assertive design, with a wider stance and longer dimensions contributing to improved cabin space. Inside, the dual 12.3-inch curved screens enhance driver interaction, while an integrated dash cam system now comes standard. Even base trims benefit from a tech-forward interior, creating a more connected driving experience. The new XRT Pro trim also enters the scene, targeted at customers seeking more rugged capability. It adds off-road focused upgrades like increased ground clearance, a limited-slip differential, and all-terrain tires. A First for the Palisade: Hybrid Efficiency One of the most notable changes is the introduction of a hybrid model. The 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid pairs a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine with two electric motors, generating a combined 329 hp and 460 Nm of torque. It's a clear move toward improved fuel economy and lower emissions—without sacrificing power. Pricing for the hybrid variants is as follows: Hybrid Base: $45,155 (SAR 169,169) SEL Premium Hybrid: $48,515 (SAR 181,931) Limited Hybrid: $52,985 (SAR 198,694) Calligraphy Hybrid: $57,775 (SAR 216,656) More Features, More Justification While the 2026 Hyundai Palisade price has climbed, the added content brings a stronger case for value. The V6 continues to offer solid performance, now accompanied by a hybrid that expands the SUV's appeal. The overall driving experience, interior tech, and versatility have all been elevated—making the price increase feel more like an investment in quality rather than an arbitrary markup. Final Verdict The 2026 Palisade arrives with a higher price, but also with more to offer. Buyers looking for a well-rounded family SUV will find that Hyundai has added substance along with cost—bringing meaningful upgrades in design, capability, and efficiency to its flagship three-row vehicle.

Autoblog brings you car news; expert reviews and exciting pictures and video. Research and compare vehicles, too. Hyundai's Biggest SUV is Finally Electrified Hyundai unveiled the 2026 Palisade earlier this year at the New York Auto Show, bringing the next-generation version of its flagship SUV to the US with bold new styling, more space, a dramatically improved interior, and, finally, a hybrid powertrain. While it stays rooted in gas-powered practicality for now, the addition of a turbo-hybrid option makes the Palisade more efficient than ever, with over 600 miles of range and a significant performance boost. And now, we know how much all of that will cost. 2025 Audi S3 VS 2025 Mercedes-AMG CLA 35: Which one comes out on top? Watch More Hyundai has officially released pricing for the full 2026 Palisade lineup, and despite the host of changes, the base price has only gone up by about $1,700 over the outgoing model. Even fully loaded trims stay competitive, offering features rivaling premium SUVs at a fraction of the price. 2026 Hyundai Palisade Pricing Breakdown Here's a quick look at how the 2026 Palisade stacks up, price-wise. The pure combustion engine versions start at $38,935 for the base SE FWD and peak at $49,370 for the first-ever XRT PRO trim. All prices exclude the $1,495 destination charge. For reference, the 2025 Palisade currently starts at $37,200. Pure ICE (3.5L V6) Trim FWD AWD SE $38,935 $40,935 SEL $41,440 $43,440 SEL Convenience $42,870 $44,870 SEL Premium $44,800 $46,800 Limited $49,270 $51,270 Calligraphy $54,060 $56,060 XRT PRO – $49,370 As expected, the electrified Palisade gets a more premium pricing, starting with the Blue SEL FWD trim at $43,660, while the top-spec, luxurious Calligraphy AWD sells for a hefty $58,280. Hybrid (2.5L Turbo HEV) Trim FWD AWD Blue SEL $43,660 $45,660 Blue SEL Premium $47,020 $49,020 Limited $51,490 $53,490 Calligraphy $56,280 $58,280 Autoblog Newsletter Autoblog brings you car news; expert reviews and exciting pictures and video.

More Capable, More Refined, More Efficient The 2026 Palisade arrives at US dealerships this month, with the hybrid models going on sale this fall. Built in Ulsan, South Korea, the new-generation Palisade packs more of everything: space, tech, and capability. The new hybrid variant pairs a turbocharged 2.5-liter engine with dual electric motors for 329 horsepower, 339 lb-ft of torque, and an estimated 30 mpg highway – all while sacrificing only 1,000 lbs of towing capacity compared to the gas model. Meanwhile, the new XRT PRO trim gives the Palisade legitimate off-road cred with all-terrain tires, a lifted suspension, and drive modes for mud, sand, and snow. Inside, all trims benefit from more noise insulation, twin 12.3-inch displays, USB-C charging in all rows, and upgraded materials throughout. Optional relaxation seats even include deployable leg rests for front and second-row passengers. Simply put, the 2026 Palisade builds on everything people liked about the old one – and fixes what they didn't. About the Author Jacob Oliva View Profile
