Hey SUV fans, get ready to celebrate as there’s an all-new model available from Hyundai. The brand-new Palisade, which replaces the Santa Fe XL, offers a world of comfort, convenience, and performance in a three-row crossover that can serve as your ultimate family hauler or personal daily ride. Let’s check out how the features, performance, and design of the all-new 2020 Hyundai Palisade allow you to ride in style. 

Power and Performance

All 2020 Hyundai Palisade models are driven by a 3.8-liter V-6 engine that delivers 291 horsepower and generates 262 pound-feet of torque. It’s matched up to an eight-speed automatic transmission. It comes standard with front-wheel drive, but you can opt for all-wheel drive. The Palisade accelerates on par with other vehicles in its class and offers athletic handling, smooth shifts, and solid emergency braking. It has a maximum towing rating of 5,000 pounds.

Solid Suite of Standard Features

Even at the base SE trim level, the 2020 Hyundai Palisade comes with a great suite of standard technology features. These include parking sensors in the rear, heated mirrors, keyless entry with push-button start, power-fold bench seats in the second row, a 60/40 split-fold third row, three USB ports in front and two in the second row, and an infotainment system with an 8-inch touch screen, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay. There’s also dual-zone air conditioning.

Upgraded Technology

If that’s not enough, the upgraded technology gives you even more. You can get heated seats up front and in back, remote start, dual-zone automatic climate control, an auto-dim mirror, power-adjust seating, wireless device charging, household-style outlets, USB ports for the third row, driver-memory functions, GPS navigation, satellite radio, a huge 10.25-inch touch screen, and even an intercom to speak with third-row passengers.

At the highest levels, you can get a 12-speaker Harman Kardon premium sound system with surround-sound features, as well as ambient lighting, premium high-end leather upholstery, and more.

Safety Features

Hyundai understands that one of the most important aspects of a family hauler is safety. Even at the base level, the Palisade offers features like drowsy-driver alert, front-crash warning and mitigation via emergency automatic brakes, lane-departure and lane-keeping functions, and rear passenger reminders. Advanced features at higher levels include blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alerts, and the Hyundai Blue Link Connected Car system to give you ultimate control and connectivity whenever you need it.

Storage

The Palisade also offers plenty of storage for loading up your groceries and gear. Whether you’re taking the kids to a hockey match or carting your guitar and amp to a gig, you’ll have more than enough room with 21 cubic feet of space behind the third row that expands to a full 87 cubic feet with both the second and third row folded down. The split-fold back seats provide customizable storage, and handy under-floor compartments add even more space.
