New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price, Interior, Release Date

New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price, Interior, Release Date –  The Palisade’s controls are thoughtfully designed, with real, user-friendly knobs for music level and tuning, as well as temperature control, eschewing the current trend of using haptic controls and smudge-prone panels. Physical buttons are also available and immediately accessible for seat heating and cooling, as well as the heated steering wheel and important system menu settings for the infotainment unit, which now has a 12.3-inch screen with brilliant, sharp graphics. New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price

The steering wheel controls are likewise well-organized. The only ergonomic flaw to speak of is the laborious push-button gear selector, which frees up cockpit space but demands an extra second of looking and pressing than is necessary to use a preferred lever or rotary control available in other models.

New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Redesign and Update Plan

Exterior and Interior

For a large vehicle, the Palisade manages itself well on the road. Handling and braking are both competent, and the big Hyundai feels well-planted during cornering at moderate speeds. The Palisade has a luxurious ride that smooths out all but the nastiest of bumps despite its massive 20-inch wheels and low-profile tires. There are several drive modes that range from eco to comfort and sport that offer variances in throttle responsiveness and transmission shift points. There’s hill descent control and a trio of off-road drive modes including sand, mud, and snow, plus a new tow mode. New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price

New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Specs

In typical Hyundai fashion, it’s chock-full of features for the money – even at this top trim’s price point – but there are a few omissions. Beyond the missing Wi-Fi hotspot and a close-and-lock function on the tailgate, the continued absence of wireless smartphone connectivity is a head-scratcher. And while picking nits, Hyundai’s lack of keyless entry buttons on rear doors is an aggravating inconvenience. In fairness, those access-related complaints can be solved by programming the Palisade to lock and unlock automatically when approaching or leaving the vehicle.

There’s plenty more on offer here, like a powerful sound system, dual-panel sunroof, heated steering wheel, customizable gauges, and interior mood lighting, and onboard navigation. That’s all in addition to those great seats mentioned above, plus wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections. Hyundai also offers its subscription-based connected services that enable various functions to be controlled using a paired smartphone.

Engine and Performance

The three-row segment is split between naturally aspirated V6 and turbocharged four-cylinder power. The Palisade uses the former, and it’s very much to its credit. While smaller turbo motors can offer more low-rev torque, the Palisade’s 262 lb-ft is competitive with the other machines in the segment. It’s also a smoother and nicer sounding engine than the smaller ones in some competitors, and there’s enough power to help the Palisade pull away from a stop or pass slower traffic quite effortlessly. The Palisade has a 2,268-kg (5,000-lb) tow rating.   New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price

New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Fuel Economy

The Palisade’s combined average of 11.2 L/100 km puts it only slightly behind the likes of Mazda’s CX-9 and the Subaru Ascent that use turbo four-cylinders, and right on par with (or better than) V6-powered offerings like the VW Atlas, Honda Pilot, and Nissan Pathfinder. The Palisade requires regular-grade gas, and its 71-L fuel tank gives it decent range.

During storm-laden testing, with the majority of the driving occurring on highways and snow-covered secondary roads, the Palisade showed a very reasonable average consumption rate of 10.3 L/100 km.  New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price

New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Safety Features

The Palisade’s extensive advanced safety features proved to be easily stymied by the winter weather experienced during this test – a common problem for many vehicles that use sensors and cameras for these systems. There’s an added level of anxiety here thanks to the repeated reminders about the inoperable safety sensors that include a distracting visual warning.

Additionally, once during testing while pulling out of a parking lot, a bold warning dominated the display proclaiming the vehicle was travelling the wrong way and should turn around. While the feature may be helpful if a driver inadvertently drives against traffic down a one-way street, this inaccurate warning stubbornly stuck around for the entire 30-minute drive home – even after pulling over, shutting the vehicle off, and starting it again.

When working properly, though, the Palisade is well-stocked with features that help with everything from emergency front and rear braking to lane-centring, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring. Both the not-for-profit Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2022 Palisade top marks for safety during their testing. The New 2027 Palisade had not been tested at the time of this writing.  New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price

New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price and Release Date

Hyundai has streamlined the Palisade lineup by scrapping the entry-level Essential trim. Now the lineup starts with the $47,999 Preferred trim, moving up to the Urban that adds several high-tech features, a premium sound system, ventilated seats, and blacked-out trim for $53,199. Topping the range is the Ultimate Calligraphy tested here that’s $56,799 and steps up the feature count further with nicer interior materials (including Nappa leather upholstery), a head-up display, the distinct grille treatment, and Hyundai’s so-called “Smart Park” feature that lets a driver move the vehicle forward or aft from the key fob. A non-negotiable destination charge adds another $1,975 to the asking price. While some competitors offer lower starting points, the Palisade remains competitive against the best in the class.

When the Palisade first landed in 2027 it showed Hyundai was serious about competing with the very best in the segment. It’s been a popular choice ever since, and the updates for New 2027 will surely help it continue to be even as new and refreshed competition comes on to the scene. The New 2027 Hyundai Palisade is a large, practical, and very well-equipped machine that should give families just what they need in a three-row hauler.  New 2027 Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy Price
