A comfortable “toaster” look

Within 3000 miles, the shifter system malfunctioned and I was 1000 miles from home - the dealership in Mesa AZ finally took the inexpensive part needed off of a new Palisade on the lot so I could get home - the entire repair took less than 30 mins, but I had to wait 48 hrs for the service dept to help me get back on the road - no help from Hyundai motors and they cared very little about my situation- this is my 7th purchase from Hyundai and I expected more

Overall great value

Overall a great value for the money compared to other midsized 3 row SUV's. Hybrid has good pick up and ok mpg around town and on long highway trips. Lots of room for 7 people. Tech is great but not as intuitive as you are led to believe (no instruction guide), we've had to make several trips to the dealership to get things programed.

Great Car/Great Value

Replaced 2020 Palisade Limited with 2026 Palisade Calligraphy Hybrid. Many improvements noted. Very peppy engine. Ride is very smooth. Interior and exterior looks are dramatic. Extremely happy with purchase.

Very happy with purchase.

Car ride is very smooth. interior is very luxurious. Like the new exterior look. The fan speed lights are very had to see so that’s a negative. Position of the parking camera button could be placed closer to driver. HUD is much improved over my 2020 Palisade Limited. The 2nd row seat mechanism is very slow and I understand there is a recall forthcoming for issues. I preferred the manual operation of the 2020 Palisade Limited. The engine seems to be a bit louder than my 2020 Palisade Limited. Seems like there could be more dampening under the hood. I will comment when I take it in for my first service visit.

Very poor quality and performance

Nothing but repairs. Quarter panel is loose, adas is glitchy at best, software is poor execution. Key fobs don’t work.

Love the vehicle, but recalls and battery failures are a big concern.

I love the overall style of the vehicle. The technology it comes with are amazing and excellent value for the price in comparison to its competitors. However, in just the first week my vehicle was dead in my garage. Battery was dead and couldn't be boosted, so my brand new vehicle had to be towed to the dealer where it took 3 days to get the battery replaced. I've had to disable some valued features like passive entry until there is a fix. There are some other issues that I read lots about but haven't experienced yet (air louvers below the grill not closing, wiring harness failures) that also worry me. The latest recall and stop sale for the seat related death and injuries is worrisome.

Great looking car inside and out!!

I love the exterior of the car; the design is great and I like the chrome details. The interior is great looking too. Love the comfortable seats and the touchscreen is large and easy to use. All of the features make this car really special such as adaptive cruise, lane assist, heads up display, cool/warm seats all around, car play, park assist etc. Also, having the hybrid makes it awesome because I get about 500 or so miles to a tank of gas.

Great family vehicle

I absolutely love my Palisade. We purchased the Calligraphy Hybrid brand new and have had absolutely no issues. I love the luxury aesthetic of the inside. It has SO many fun features that my old vehicle did not have. Such a fun upgrade. I absolutely recommend this car to anyone looking for a 3rd row option for a family!

Fun and comfy car

Absolutely love my 2026 Hybrid Palisade. The lane assist, the self drive on longer road trip and not to forget the Massage drivers seat are so amazing. Not to forget I like that all seats are heated and cooling and my kids have definitely used this feature in the 2nd & 3rd seat row.

Wish we did not buy it.

Our new palisade is a beautiful vehicle. Seems well built and has all the characteristics of a luxury vehicle. Then you come to the bad. We bought a hybrid because we read all the information about what great gas mileage it would get. It’s not even close the vehicle gets about 24 mpg. I have owned a hybrid before and it got excellent gas mileage. The worst part is that in early January my granddaughter was in the second row seat when my grandson hit the button by accident. The second row seat started going forward and basically if it was not for the drivers seat being all the way back she would have probably been killed. I had to break the handle on the right side of the seat to get her unbuckled and get her out of the seat. We were lucky that she was not seriously injured or killed. That is besides the terrible service when we went to pick up the car at Evensville Hyundai.

Hyundai is conducting this recall to ensure the safety and quality of its vehicles for our customers.

Parasitic battery issue. Bad dealer

I love the car. Except it has an issue where the battery drains. Probably the walk away feature. On top of that- when the battery was stone fed, the BMS failed. The dealer has tried to get me to say I mis-jumped it several times. Blaming me for the issue that should obviously be under warranty. My brand new calligraphy has been in the shop for over 30 days before they even gave me a loaner (not the same caliber vehicle btw).
