Hey everyone, two quick corrections. First, and perhaps MOST importantly, Thomas meant Ed, not Eddy. Also, the 10-year warranty we reference is US only. In Canada, its a 5 year. Sad face. Have a great day!

The push button shift selector is simple to use and very practical. It takes time to get adjusted to but I would never say it’s cumbersome at all! In fact, it’s the complete opposite.

[@conork8177]

I own a Palisade and the button selector didnt bother me until I needed to back out, and immediately go, in traffic. With a gear shifter you can flip the car from reverse, to drive, while it is drifting back...with the drive by wire, and understand it is a safety feature, you need to come to a stop before it will go into drive. Add in the cross traffic sensoring and you feel like a sitting duck. It is a one time life lesson. It quickly taught me to be more patient.

Toyota have good resale and reliability ratings but they are absolutely not who you go to for features and luxury, until their updates this year a lot of their engine options, and infotainment systems have been laughably outdated. Depends on what a person is after I suppose.

My wife originally wanted the Telluride, but after finding out dealers in the US were gouging prices, I decided to look at the Palisade. We ended up with an SEL with the convenience pkg, which included the much nicer 20" wheels and many more amenities. We almost have 20K miles on it now and are averaging 23mpg. I have gotten used to, and actually love the push button gear selector and the paddles make it a little more fun when the mood strikes. It also allows for a shelf on the floor under the center console which gives it better storage packaging over the Telluride. Hyundai dealers were way more willing to deal on the Palisade as well. The reason it became a no brainer. Oh yeah, Car and Driver actually got 6.8 secs to 60mph in the Palisade and 7.0 secs in the Telluride.

Wife is 5'2", it's difficult to use the Telluride's manual 3rd rows -Nicer interior -More storage space.

Happened to us! My mom initially wanted a Toyota Highlander, as she had an older one. However, she discovered these two. She took a look at the Telluride first, but wasn’t fully sold on it, and had doubts on the Palisade. Then she and I finally took the time to test drive it and actually look on the inside of it. She loved it. Expecting delivery of her Palisade Calligraphy in the beginning of December. Absolutely stunning car.

[@schafer240]

Lol the lack of due diligence beyond just insane. 1. Wait till its always at the dealership getting fixed and inevitably has catastrophic failure, most likely just out of warranty. 2. Then you'll be faced with should I fix or sell it... but by then it'll be worth nothing when compared to a Japanese competitor. Even before the failure it's resale value is the equivalent of garbage. Your choice and your money, waste it how you please.

[@lordmeme_]

@@schafer240 we’ve owned a highlander for the past 8 years. a friend of ours has owned a Veracruz and abused it more than our highlander for more than 10 years. Nothing wrong with either car. I know it’s anecdotal, but the Hyundai has already proven itself indestructible. Our switch from the Highlander to the Palisade was one of the best switches we’ve made from a Toyota to a Hyundai. You can continue to be negative and insistent upon Japanese superiority, but Kia and Hyundai are competitors to be taken seriously. All of their cars in the past 2 or so years have stepped it up in reliability(their cars were already pretty solid beforehand, not as good as Toyota of course, but now is a different story), and the appeal to it is insane. Regardless of reliability, you’re getting a huge value proposition with both the Telluride and Palisade. You get features(and cargo space) on those two cars that competitors like the Pilot, the Highlander, and the CX-9 simply don’t have. You’re buying a level of comfort that others don’t match as well. The amount of car you get for $50,000 is absolutely crazy given competitors prices and offerings in their cars. edited a word for misspelling

[@lordmeme_]

@@schafer240 I also don’t know what you consider “due diligence,” but considering we had been looking at multiple cars for over a year beginning in January of 2020, I’d say we have done a fair amount of research, consideration, and planning

[@schafer240]

@@lordmeme_ you state reliability has been increased in the last two years... this would suggest a track record of two years of reliability... how is that proven? Look at resale value that's a direct comparison of the Precieved value of a used vehicle. There's a reason Korean are so low. And that money you saved up front you lost hands over fist in resale, not to mention repair bills, down time (cost of your time to deal with it, if you care about that) and on top of it image if your keeping up with the Jones and there lexus, etc. The bang for buck at the beginning is a distraction, to bias your common sense. Just like dodge, another poorly made product. It's a distraction, from poor material quality and lack of engineering to a corner cut product.

[@robertbrandywine]

Interesting, I never knew there was a town in Colorado named Palisade.

My wife and myself have been shopping these vehicles. We ve had a hardtime deciding. The 2021 Telluride when built offers a rear entertainment system, which helped us decide over the palisade. Awesome video guys!

This has cemented my decision on getting the Palisade Calligraphy for my Birthday!

[@sammivet]

We are shopping these used and can’t wait to buy one. Looking to purchase in April. As a native Coloradan (well, ok, I moved in 2008 at 18- but married a true true native!) I do have to add that Palisade is also a town/region in Colorado! Famous for delicious peaches and wine! Definitely the personalities for the cities fit the personalities of the cars. I watched this video when it came out and have watched like five times as I am comparing the two- I can never skip it when I shows up in search results. Love your channel. You guys are hilarious, fun, and the absolute perfect thing to watch at 2am when I am up with the baby. Thank you for getting me through some longggggg nights! ❤️

[@JBrown-go8ru]

The, Telluride, is a big ass slow SUV. Wife, and I test drove one...good looking vehicle, but fell flat when on throttle. I punch it, we both said, let’s just pay more money for the complete package, and left the dealership.

[@bvokey8842]

I like the telluride better inside and out. More rugged looking. I know many people prefer the interior on the palisade over the telluride but I wasn’t a huge fan and I don’t see it aging all that well in my opinion. I test drove both, and ordered the Kia.

[@GTO4now]

You guys are the best...hands down. As always, very entertaining and informative. 👍

[@coltonphillips1]

Hands down kia/Hyundai are killing it.

[@almontaserbella6980]

Everytime I am thrilled to watch the intro. Thumbs up 👍for palisade vs telluride

[@RyanZirnheld11]

15:00 that is not the top trim Telluride, at least not in the US. That is an SX but without the SX Prestige Package, which has a higher quality interior including the alcantara headliner and higher quality leather seats.

[@nicoleholland1633]

I thought so too!! Ours is on order, a 2022 SX Nightfall with prestige package

[@miramontes92]

If I remember correctly the sx also comes with the digital cluster with the blind spot in it on the prestige

[@Rkhoury212]

The one they’re reviewing is the top trim, at the Canadian spec one. It has the heads up display that only the SX Prestige comes with. However, the SX Prestige here in the States comes with the alcantara headliner and nappa leather seating.

[@hasimirfenring6717]

Informative video. Thanks.

[@lordmeme_]

Palisade was the one that convinced us to go Korean. Wasn’t fully sold on the Telluride, we just liked the Palisades looks on both the inside and out better. We liked the interior especially more in the Palisade.

[@PhinallyWC08]

Personally, I think the Telluride looks better inside and out, but it's really neat to have two different versions of essentially the same vehicle to pick from, depending on your style preference. Also, I don't know about in Canada, but the top trim Telluride in the US has the "Suede" headliner, as well

[@anthonymastmusic453]

It does, I work for Kia, they have an SX Nightfall which yes is the top trim, but not fully loaded, there’s a “Prestige” package that goes on top of nightfall and adds (Nappa Leather, suede headliner, etc.)

[@ranoshrafeek8837]

Every single time when u upload my day gets brighter and i have a really wide smile.....luv u guys.......♥️😍😍

[@CrazyMakeupAddiction]

I test drove both the top models of the palisade and telluride and much preferred the telluride to the palisade. While there are aspects of the palisade that I preferred over the telluride, the ride of the Kia was so much smoother and I felt much more comfortable driving in the Kia. My husband also felt the same and we ended up with the telluride. I am so happy and thoroughly enjoy driving my telluride.

[@leemcilvain8247]

In the US, the 2020 Telluride also came with the Alcantara/suede like roof liner in the SX Prestige Package. It was also bundled with the HUD, perforated leather, and heated and cooled front and 2nd row seats.

[@owenmacwilliams1134]

I SAID THE EXACT SAME THING!!! My moms car has the Sx prestige package and it’s 2 times the car they reviewed

Thanks for this comparison of these two really awesome vehicles. This helped my wife out a ton on making her decision on which to get.

[@dawnmarie9369]

Which one did she get

[@archipelago9376]

*One major correction about the Telluride interior:* while you have the top-trim SX, it is without the highest-tier package, i.e. "Prestige"--and with it, you get premium nappa leather seating AND the same Alcantara headliner as the Palisade in this video. And like you said, having the black vs. lighter grey makes a difference--and the Telluride offers light-grey leather, too

[@bankerdave888]

[@JovanJeffery]

[@arshaq4471]

For me mazda probably

[@nedkunch.8882]

I really enjoy watching this. I pick Telluride because it looks rugged, much cheaper, and has bench seat in the second row. If the Palisade has just the single one front head lamp not splitting into many pieces, it will definitely win, and if it allows to have 2nd row bench seat configuration for customer to choose, it'll be perfect. Lastly if Hyundai wants to make their cars with the narrowing eyes that is not headlamp and located on the top, it's a shame because it's getting more and more out of fashion now. It used to be fascinating about years ago, but now I really don't like to look at it. Bigger and bulkier eyes are in the trend right now imo. So actually the car with a stick or buttons, which one is better in your opinion? I never use buttons. It looks fantastic, but I'm afraid it's gonna get tiresome after using them a couple of days.

[@arusmy]

It's been good going for 15 mo/ 16K miles w/ our 2020 Hyundai Palisade SEL and did a round-trip last summer from PA to CA. Needed an 8 seater & was worth the money compared to Telluride on features and space. Despite the hype & over MSRP price, got a great deal from NJ much lower than MSRP. Two dislikes so far - shifting at low speeds and frequent service schedule.

[@aka_khazi]

The Nightfall edition is actually A step down from the normal SX version. The normal SX has better rims and looks a little more premium. Also you get nappa leather on that and a microfiber alcantara like headliner the same as the one in the Palaside.

[@bengals098558]

I got nappa leather on my night fall. You just have to have the sx prestige and night fall not just night fall.

[@syedalamdar100]

The first comparison video that actually made sense. This might be too much to ask but when reviewing big cars - get some of your friends in them just so we can have an idea of how it rides/looks when fully loaded. This is a family mover. Generally, families looking into this market segment are more than 2 - more like more than 4.
