2021 Hyundai Palisade // Is this the DREAM SUV of American Families?? (Luxury AND Value)

There is little doubt in our minds that this 2021 Hyundai Palisade Limited is one of the best family 3-row crossovers that money can buy! There is also a new Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy trim level which adds a few extra fancy touches! Onboard is a 3.8L V-6 engine, Nappa leather seating, wireless Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay, panoramic moonroof, and more. But should you pick it over the 2021 Kia Telluride Nightfall, 2021 Toyota Highlander Platinum, or 2021 Honda Pilot?

HAVE IT, LOVE IT!! Went from a Tahoe to this, better gas mileage, easier to drive and maneuver, great visibility. +20k cheaper. No regrets had it for a year!!

[@DaRealStiffhand]

Have you towed with it? If so how does it compare to your Tahoe?

[@kelseyallen3930]

I’ve had mine since December. Have you noticed an odd chemical smell when you don’t drive the car for a day or two? It goes away after driving and running the HVAC but comes back once the car isn’t driven for a day or more.

I find that really annoying how many manufacturers shove captains chairs down your throat when you go for the higher up trims. This should be a standalone option. NOT part of a trim level.

[@toddhaynes7145]

Yep I agree. I need an 8 passenger and. Tossed this and the Kia off the list for that reason. Captains chairs should be an option not standard on the top trims

[@CrustyCurmudgeon]

Those god-awful fold-down arm rests are just hideous. Hey Hyundai, the 80's called and want their design back

[@toddkost]

It's about stocking volume, too many choices and you can't have them all. The bench is low volume and people that NEED 8 seats buy cheaper trims OR more expensive vehicles like Escalades. I ordered Hyundais for a dealer for years.

[@CarieSaad]

The BMW X7 gives u a choice of bench or captains chairs. The captains chairs dont let the 2nd row fold down all the way. The bench seats does & gives the most cargo space.

[@IKhanNot]

@@toddhaynes7145 If you need an 8 passenger then a midsize SUV might not be a good choice. Go get a minivan or a full size vehicle like a GMC Yukon SLE trim which has 8 passenger seating. It's better to seat 6 or 7 people in comfort versus squishing all of the second and third row occupants.

[@chadparker8198]

We bought this exact car. It is really nice. It’s a little louder than I thought it would be. Roof glass is amazing. Carbon fiber. Very little leather on the dash, but the design makes it work out fine. The audio projects voices in front to kids in third row like the Escalade.

[@QuantumRift]

We just test drove one, and I am impressed. We bought a 2012 Genesis 3.8 premium/tech pkg trim in June 2011 (and still have it). We also bought a 2017 Sportage SX. I was as impressed with the Palisade as I was with the Genesis back in '11. We love the Sportage but now we have two full-time granddaughters (twin toddlers) and need a larger vehicle.....so we are looking. I was originally looking at a Toyota Sienna, but wow, this vehicle rocks...love the rear camera when you engage turn signals, love HUD display...I am not so keen on the push button transmission, but you can't have everything. You missed the 2nd glove box on the passenger side, above the lower glove box, above the middle trim. The vehicle I just drove had one. It was spacious and had a "cover" for a tire (if you have to transport a tire cause you don't HAVE A SPARE!)...

[@320HappyFeet]

WOW. My first time watching a car review. Came across this while saving this vehicle to my Pinterest board and had to watch it via KZbin on my tv! SO GOOD. Thank you sir. I will absolutely be getting a Limited!🤪

[@kennethwalton5582]

I’m definitely loving my Limited model. It’s an amazing value, especially when looking at some other new SUV models, i.e., Jeep Grand Cherokee L. It’s been fun to drive and provides a comfortable ride. The HK stereo system is fantastic and the HUD provides some great color options and safety features which can used with it. All in all, you won’t find another SUV, other than the Telluride, that provides you with so much for the price. It’s priced to sell and is feature rich.

[@Superfastjellyfish669]

I want to take part from this and the Telluride and make the best version combined.

The interior on this Palisade is luxurious, I’ve always felt it made all other midsize SUV’s obsolete. I have read about a bad smell coming from the interior and Hyundai hasn’t figured out what’s causing it yet. According to the revue this aroma is not pleasant at all, so I hope they figure it out soon.

[@Nicebitoftucka]

At about 5k miles I think mine is starting to do that. When I open the door I get a quick whiff but it disappears . It's not a terrible smell just smells odd and makes me question what I just smelled

[@ericelf2084]

I have had mine for a year and 3 months. It is without a doubt my favorite car that I have ever owned. I have had Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Chevy Tahoe, Toyota, and many others. In my opinion this one tops them all!

[@martynj3438]

Another great video guys the Calligraphy trim is cool, I guess its like Kia's nightfall trim with cool different features

[@romanseano]

Technically, they do-contented the Limited for 2021 - removing the faux-suede headliner, door "quilt" panels, and chromed front & rear skid plates and cargo sill - to make such features exclusive to Calligraphy. Fortunately, the quilt panel isn't deal-breaking and the melange headliners are actually really nice, and those exterior features are all pretty easily upgradable. I know because we did those upgrades, along with trading our wheels for the beautiful (and strangely discontinued) 2020 Limited wheels, so we could still get a Sierra Burgundy 2021 Palisade (a color not available on Calligraphy in the US).

I can't tell if its a mental thing but at 5k miles I'm started to kinda smell what has been reported. Hyundai has allegedly the worst customer service.

It is a dream, I love mine but fair warning, the front windshield is prone to easily break (research it there are class action law suits in the works) and there are a high number of reported "oder" issues that arises from the leather (also research, Hyundai knows about this issue but doesn't have a real solution). I replaced my glass after 2k miles with Safelite glass as after researching I found that those that replaced with Hyundai glass, in many cases end up with the same issues. Specifically, a small rock chip quickly turns into an 18" crack that is not repairable.

Best reviewers!! I wish I could take this interior and put it into the Telluride. Still not sold on the styling of the Hyundai. I also think they should just drop the "Limited" moniker on this model and just reclassify it as the SEL. It sucks they took the Alcantara headliner out and other decontenting methods all to create the Caligraphy trim, which does not add any powertrain changes. If it had a twin-turbo 6 to differentiate itself like the Explorer Platinum, I could see it.
