The Hyundai Palisade SUV has a new model for 2021. It’s called Calligraphy. Modern and spacious, the Hyundai Palisade is a great choice in the three-row SUV segment. A close sibling of the Kia Telluride, the Palisade is Hyundai’s flagship SUV and comes packed with features and driver safety technology. Owners will appreciate its large and stylish cabin. A V6 engine provides good power and fuel economy. The Palisade isn’t as sporty as some rivals, but it is one of the most refined and comfortable midsize SUVs available.

Further, Multiple Device Connection capability, HD radio® and Wireless Smartphone Connectivity (for Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®) have been added to the SE model and above for vehicles without navigation. This generous repackaging ensures even more Palisade customers can enjoy these popular technologies in their ownership experience. Even more, LED headlamps are now standard, while sunroof and LED map-interior lights have been added to the SEL model and above. Palisade trailer pre-wiring connectors, an important feature for those Palisade buyers who tow, has been upgraded from a 4-pin connector to an enhanced 7-pin connector design. Finally, a premium melange headliner has been added to the Premium package.

Moreover, more than 60 percent of Palisade buyers represent conquest sales, such as when the vehicle traded-in is from a competitive brand. Impressively, 77 percent of Palisade owners indicated strongly improved perceptions of Hyundai from their ownership experience.
