Family-First Utility in the 2025 Hyundai PALISADE

The PALISADE packs a lot of performance power under the hood with a 3.8-liter, six-cylinder engine that generates 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. A front-wheel drivetrain is standard, but if you plan to take this SUV off-roading, opting for the available HTRAC AWD driveline is a good idea. The powertrain is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission with selectable drive modes and a transmission cooler to maximize performance. 


This SUV has a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 lbs to haul small to medium-sized boats effortlessly. On AWD models, a special tow mode can be turned on to enhance trailer stability. This SUV has a standard trailer sway control system and is pre-wired for brake light trailer mirroring. The FWD model gets 22 MPG combined, while the AWD drivetrain has an estimated mileage of 21 MPG combined. 

Cargo and Passenger Space

The PALISADE has a maximum cargo volume of 85.4 cubic feet behind the first row of seats when both of the back rows are folded flat. Folding down only the third-row seats reduces the cargo capacity to 45.8 cubic feet, while leaving all three rows upright offers a dedicated cargo room of 18 cubic feet. 


The versatility of the cargo space means you can haul surfboards and kayaks with ease when the rear seats are folded, or pack away camping gear while still seating two rows of passengers. The base model has an eight-passenger seating capacity, while models like the XRT and SEL have a seven-passenger capacity. 

Technology and Connectivity

Keeping the kids entertained on long trips is essential for a peaceful driving experience. The PALISADE has a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen with standard streaming via crystal clear HD Radio. The infotainment unit can integrate third-party media apps like Spotify or Audible through Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. This infotainment unit also has a standard navigation system with traffic flow information for flawless route planning. 


This family vehicle can connect two devices to the infotainment unit at once. If passengers are asleep in the back rows, a rear seat Quiet Mode can be activated to shift the speaker volume to the front row. 


Spacious seating, configurable cargo space, and convenient technology to create a peaceful driving environment are only a few reasons why families love the Hyundai PALISADE. Drop by Cocoa Hyundai in Cocoa, FL to take this family-friendly model on a test drive.
