Hyundai has unveiled the latest generation of the Palisade in Korea, marking a significant update to its flagship ICE-powered SUV after six years on the market. The new Palisade features a bold, boxy exterior design with futuristic elements and an upgraded interior that prioritizes space and luxury.
Drawing inspiration from the smaller Santa Fe, the redesigned Palisade adopts a clean and robust design language, emphasizing straight lines and defined volumes. The front end stands out with vertically arranged LED light blocks flanking a prominent upright grille, giving the SUV a commanding presence.
Key design enhancements include an extended wheelbase, a shorter front overhang, and a stretched rear section. These changes improve the vehicle’s proportions and evoke a Range Rover-like aesthetic, especially with its blacked-out pillars, flat beltline, and distinctive LED taillight design that extends into the side profile.
Additional styling elements include aluminum-style accents across the bodywork, seamlessly integrated roof rails that connect to the D-pillars, and 21-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels, complementing the Palisade’s substantial dimensions. While Hyundai has not disclosed the exact length, it is anticipated to exceed 5 meters (196.9 inches).
Hyundai has yet to reveal full specifications for the new Palisade, keeping details under wraps for its official debut, which is expected soon.
The redesigned Palisade is set to launch in Korea in 2025, with a broader rollout to follow. In North America, it will likely be introduced as a 2026 model, as the current generation is slated to continue through the 2025 model year.
