great review, I chose the Palisade hybrid and I'm loving it so far!
No question the Palisade HYBRID will be the version to get for added HP, quicker acceleration AND better fuel efficiency..
You forgot to mention the built in front and rear live camera that Toyota lacks. Hyundai has better highway lane keeping assist, on screen blind spot camera, much more intuitive infotainment, etc. The tech in Hyundai has always outpaced Toyota, so I don’t know why you gave both the same score.
cabin tech... same score? man I think you may need to check your eyes
The in cabin tech score is typo right? While the grand highlander is fine (maybe average), the Hyundai is clearly much better: HDA2 which can do auto lane changes Blind spot view cameras Massage driver seat Powered 2nd row slide and recline Powered 3rd row slide and recline Being able to power the seats from the infotainment and cargo space High wattage USB ports Built in Dash Cam UV sanitation box Cooled Rear seats Heated third row (never mentioned in the video I believe) Remote Smart Parking Self leveling rear suspension ...
Do you agree with us that the Palisade took the crown from the Grand Highlander? What features of these SUVs matter most to you? Let us know in the comments!
Material used in Hyundai Palisade better than most of luxury cars
Hyundai Palisade so pretty omg
I have the hybrid Palisades for about a month now. I am glad I waited for the 2026 hybrid. I get better mileage than what you are talking about. I average 36-38 driving in-between eco and sport for some highway traveling i got a full tank from the dealership and have only had to fill the tank one time so far and I am 929 miles already. The pick up is no different then the all electric when starting out and give it gas. This Palasade model levels out quicker than the all electric so I do not agree with what your testimony was on that. The ca has enough space for any needs for larger purses in the front and enough leg room in rear with a large bag with a passenger. There is enough media and access for all needs as there is charging ports all throughout the car. Power seats to be controlled on computer by driver or in rear at hatch with is an added bonus. The features come standard in this car over the others I was shopping for. Toyota, Nissan and was originally toll going for a Genesis GV80 but that driver cockpit was way too tight and uncomfortable and did not come with these standard features. For the cost of those base offering and then seeing this Calligraphy model it was a no brained and almost $20,000 cheaper. With better warranty also. I would recommend this Hybrid Palisades for anyone looking for family room, working on the road, traveling etc. you will not be disappointed This luxury features and space are added bonus!
We just picked up the FWD Hybrid Palisade we ordered three months ago. The Mrs. had to get the blue with saddle interior and told first with this combo sold in FL. We dropped everything when told car arrived and just got it two days ago. It did ship from S.Korea so it added that cost compared to the U.S built Highlander. Drove it this morning 8mi rt to the gym and it was in EV mode the whole time. Mrs. drove yesterday for errands, so I had Mr. Daisy experience in the 2nd row - OMG. 1st class all out.
