Nicest SUV i have ever owned

styling inside and out is beautiful. The drive is smooth and quiet. Wish it had more power but it is adequate. Very impressed with all the technology. The car has as much if not more options then SUV’s costing much more

2026 SUV review

Very nice car the sole issue for me is the power response and the slight surging at slower speeds.

Hirrible performance

Hyundai made as big mistakes changing the engine. What genius thought about putting a smaller engine in a bigger heavier car?? The car struggles to get going and the fuel mileage is awful. Just did a trip and it barely gets over 20 mpg. The transmission is constantly up shifting and down shifting. I’m so sorry I traded in by 2022 calligraphy for this car. I tried to trade it in for a hybrid but the dealer offered me $40,000 for it. It was over $58,000 in August. It would be be nice if Hyundai would do a buy back for a hybrid

Brand New 2026 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy

This vehicle does not dissappoint! It truly has some of the best features and plus some that most luxury vehicles do not even offer. Heated 3rd row!!! Who has heard of that before this new Palisade!? Beautiful Napa leather seats and the convenience to fold all the seats right from the touch of the finger on the screen by the driver. The suspension is insane on this vehicle and the quiet ride is like that of the extreme luxury vehicles. I test drove 9 other vehicles before I made my decision on this new 2026 Hyundai Palisade. To name a few, I drove and Infiniti QX80, Lincoln Aviator and Nautilus, Lexus Rx , Genesis 80 and the New Cadillac Escalades....they were each missing something, but not the Hyundai! Way to go Hyundai with a new beautiful design at the right price! I am one very happy customer and a proud owner of the 2026 Hyundai Palisade.

Spaceship on wheels

The title speaks for itself, constantly i b get looks and asked if it's an EV. This is my first new vehicle in 10 years, and I have to say it has ALL the tech: HUD, heated/cooled seats with driver message, front passenger reclines like a sofa chair, wireless charging, center console light sanitizer, remote start from key fob or thru the Hyundai app. The list goes on. It is a very comfortable ride on the road. Haven't been on any dirt roads, but I believe the suspension would do fine. Comes with top shelf Pierelli rubber tires as well. Most exciting feature my kids rave about, and its the overhead "moon roof" glass. A very spacious, comfortable, economical SUV. Seats my family of 6 well. If I had one complaint, it would be IF the tech breaks/fails, IF not covered, could be an expensive fix.

Real lemon.#3

Bought 26 calligraphy, white / tan interior, #1 driver seat would only move 1/2-3/4 inch took 3days in service to get to acceptable level never correct.#2 key fob quit working or car would not recognize it#3 try passing another car would loose power. #4 turn on left signal and every light on console would flash in unison with turn signals. ALL of this in less than a month, you can guess I traded it as soon as I could, service never could fix it, they had it more in shop than I had it. I have owned 10 previous hyundais w/ out any problems & traded a 24 limited palisade for the 26, I would not recommend this unit to anyone. Also dealership only has white/ black/ Grey colors so not much to choose from.

Loaded with ton of modern amenities but that gas mileage, stupid location for gear shifter, and warning sensors are over zealous,

26’ model Car at shop within 2000 miles with knock

The car is beautifully designed and exactly what we wanted aesthetically, as well as with comfort and loaded with options. Mechanically, I’m in disbelief that I updated a 2020 palisade for a brand new 2026 palisade that now knocks from the engine bay. Rev the RPM, and the sound increases and decreases at idle fluctuation. So after 1 payment made, I’m driving a base Elantra tiny loaner in dead of winter while my heated seat spacious suv is being looked at by the second Hyundai location. Both locations and numerous people have confirmed the “Knock”. My battery had to be charged 2 days after the purchase as well. Not a great start.
