I feel the same way. The other thing is every lower end luxury car and SUV (c-e class, 3-5 series, q5-q7, etc.) is pretty much all plastic, vinyl, piano black and touch screens, if you pay for the add-ons. They don't feel expensive at all and even their wood or carbon Fibre looks as fake as any other, and they feel like hard plastic. They don't seem to care about expensive materials until you get well over 100k with the S class/7 series/A8 and even those start with lots of piano black and hard surfaces all over, and you need to option out the nice features and materials. Hyundai and Kia vehicles are pretty close now for way less money, if we're not talking high performance

Picked up one of these up about 5 weeks ago in the same trim. The good definitely outweighs the bad. Sure it looks like you can grate a large block of cheese on the grill, but the interior is a big selling point. The dash layout, materials, and presence of physical buttons is fantastic. I like that you can steady your hand on the dash while using the touch screen....it makes all the difference in the world for usability. Could not justify the added cost of something at a comparable trim level for example, a Jeep Grand Cherokee L that has piano black trim on all of the touch points. The overall size is perfect as it fits in a regular sized garage, unlike full size SUV's. Road trips are really comfortable in the first two rows and the driving aids work much better that what I've experienced in our 2019 Pilot. Heated out board seats in all 3 rows, ventilated in the first two rows. Pretty good bang for the buck. Hoping the reliability is there...

The Sorento, Sportage and Tucson and others in that class are all considerably smaller than the Palisade. A 1.6T gas engine might not be enough for the Palisade, in which case the limiting factor is that Hyundai / Kia do not currently have a 2L or 2.5L P/HEV system. Additionally, putting a hybrid drivetrain means sacrificing the 5000lbs towing capacity, which I think is one of the selling points of the Palisade

Or Toyota sucks since their car wheels fall off and their cables corrode. But that's not reasonable since not all of their models have these issues. Every brand cuts costs. In the Palisade, they mainly use steel and the driving dynamics aren't amazing. I think those are the right costs to cut since their buyers don't care about driving dynamics or the powertrain.

I own a 22 Palisade and put 33,000 miles on it in a year. Haul 3 kids and am a sports car obsessed nut (owned a C63s AMG, Audi S6, M5). I love this car. We had a minivan and this is superior in almost every way. And compared to the big American SUVs like the Tahoe and the Explorer, this is m-u-c-h easier to park. And has as much 3rd row leg room. People don't think about having to park their giant SUVs but then they have tight parking lots for gymnastics practice with kids everywhere and it's a nightmare. Ultra reliable and I actually had a decent dealership experience (exception to the norm I know). Everything about this car just works. Lower plastics are cheap and the armrest is cheap. The one thing I hate about my 22 that they fixed in 23 is the rear climate controls are in the infotainment and it's sluggish. Nothing worse than having to wait 15 seconds after you press the rear button to get your soft climate controls on the screen. Overall tremendous vehicle.

Another obsessed car nut here with more than 20 vehicles purchases in last 25 years, also 3 kids, trading in a minivan for one of these at the end of 2019. It beat out all others easily with features and space. But, our experience with it wasn't great. Excessive wind noise, USBs not working, shifter not working, rattles, failing to start, rough idle on start. Too many issue to deal with through horrible dealers. Traded in for a Toyota product earlier this year.

Mark, this was an excellent video and I just also saw your GV80 video too. I just love the no crap and all facts approach -simply wow on your video and content making. I’m leaving a loved 2014 Navigator and bouncing between wanting a 3rd row or wanting an EV. I test drove a calligraphy and immediately felt the cushy ride - you called it soft. I looked at the GV80 and was impressed but fearful of a useless 3rd row. I’ve been researching the EX90 but saw your video on your 2019 XC90 and that gave me the same shakes as I’ve been having about the 2020 Discovery. Ok, I now got the “rock climbing capability “ out of my head. While I’m concerned about the similar miles/gallon that’s not too far from the Navigator - the Navigator is a Flex fuel boat which helped on fuel costs, my biggest issues - based on your thoughts on this video are 1) the audio system and 2) the handling which reminded me of my Acura Legend long ago. I’m an audiophile (with high-end bespoke analog systems and high-end solid-state at home). Assuming there’s no way to replace the audio system on the Palisade Calligraphy -sounds like I’d go mad listening to music in it; should I just go look at a different car? Thanks!!

As far as the dealer experience, good news. Kia/Hyundai have already told us they intent to ramp up production (for the Telluride anyway) to over 120,000 units so there shouldn't be any excuses from dealers for increased prices due to any shortages. I do agree the too frequent changes just as you get used to it. Too frequent changes lower resale value, and keeps these cars from ever gaining any true personalty. One more thing, I wish they offered more seat controls for the passenger so when drivers swap on long trips, even tall owners can still get comfortable and relax before they switch back. I'd gladly pay a couple hundred extra for that. While I'm making a wish list, thigh extension for the rear seats too. Something you can just pull out to gain an inch or so more. Being a 6'4 guy, I can't say how many times I wished the second row seat cushions had just an inch more thigh support to take the weight off my long aching knees. I realized that from being the passenger on daily commutes in mini vans.

Kia/Hyundai might intend to ramp up production but they've already sold out the entirety of the 2023 production. It's all on backorder for probably another year still and dealers will be lucky if they have a single Palisade available per month.

I wont be seeing this car on a race track anytime soon. However, the only reason why hesitated to buy this car is that it is a Korean brand car. I always heard of the reliability of Kia and Huyndai. They are amazing doing luxury and you get huge bang for your buck but whats the point of having all that luxury when you be spending more time in an auto shop than on vacation?

Australian Palisade gets an Infinity sound system which is very clear and has very decent bass(coming from a guy who has a kick ass custom system in his weekend car that cost a lot) For me it was no hybrid crap, and non turbo with decent power (we only get FWD in Aus with the V6) and handles very well. Seems like Australia might get a little bit of a different suspension tune as mine corners very well with almost no body roll. No premiums fuels needed, get around 9l per 100 (26mpg) and 8l per 100(29mpg) on freeway driving. The AWD system might be a factor in your fuel consumption. Mine is the top spec in Aus, the highlander which has a front sun roof and the moon roof in the back, plus nappa leather and swede roof liner, manual adjusted headlights, 360 camera. Only thing that really annoys me is that you have to keep turning off the lane keeping assistant and speed warning crap which drives me nuts as it keeps beeping at you non stop for going a tiny bit over the limit. overall a 8/10 (would be 10/10 if it was RWD)
