Hyundai Palisade Comparison

The Hyundai Palisade is a large three-row SUV aimed at Australian families wanting generous space, long-distance comfort and a more premium feel than many mainstream alternatives. The local lineup offers seven- or eight-seat layouts, with hybrid variants forming the core of the range and a petrol-powered XRT Pro adding a more rugged option for buyers who want a tougher look and more adventurous flavour. Positioned as Hyundai’s flagship petrol/hybrid SUV, the Palisade suits larger households needing adult-friendly accommodation, useful luggage room and relaxed highway touring ability, while still being practical for school runs and weekend sport. It carries a five-star ANCAP safety rating based on 2025 testing, and Hyundai supports it locally with capped-price servicing required every 12 months or 10,000km.
