Hyundai has unveiled its new Palisade flagship SUV. The company has revealed the details of its new SUV for the Korean market. The company is going to introduce it globally in early 2025. Let us know with what features the new Hyundai Palisade has been brought and when it will be launched in India.
New Hyundai Palisade: Exterior
The design of the new Palisade is much better than the current model. It has a boxy look with rounded corners and ample chrome on the exterior. It has a long grille on the front. Its headlamps are placed vertically on both sides of the grille and have been given a slatted design. The front bumper has two horizontal slats and a U-shaped chin. Its clamshell bonnet has a unique look, with rectangular shaped indents.
Talking about its side panels, it has a turbine-like design for the large glasshouse, flared wheel arches and large 21-inch alloy wheels. The roofline slopes gently towards the rear, ending in an angular rear glass and a straight tailgate.
The tail-lamps are vertically arranged and have 6 light slats. From the rear, it looks quite similar to the Range Rover. The rear bumper and tailgate have been given a new and simple design with Hyundai branding, centrally-mounted license plate housing and some chrome bits.
New Hyundai Palisade: Interior
The new Palisade has a beige-themed cabin. It has a double-layered dashboard with two horizontal screens for infotainment and instrumentation. Its steering wheel looks like a Range Rover, which comes with many control features. The AC vents fitted in it are oval in shape. It has a climate control system, armrest with two separate openings in the center console and a wireless charging slot with a cubby hole. The central console can be moved upwards and converted into a middle seat for the front row, due to which this SUV becomes a nine-seater.
Hyundai has not shown the photos of its second and third row nor has shared any information about their features. However, it has been equipped with features like 360-degree camera, ADAS, heated and cooled seats, wireless charging and panoramic sunroof.
New Hyundai Palisade: Powertrain
The new Palisade will be offered with the new Theta series of petrol-hybrid engines. It can get a 2.5-liter turbo-petrol engine, which will be connected to an electric motor. The new engine will replace the pure-petrol Lambda series engine used in the current Palisade.
When will it be launched in India
The new Palisade is on sale in Hyundai's home market South Korea. The rest of the details will be revealed when it is introduced in the global market in early 2025. The carmaker plans to start offering hybrid powertrains for its SUVs and sedans in India by 2027, including the Creta, Alcazar, Verna and Tucson. However, the new Palisade was being tested for launch in India. Now it remains to be seen when it will be launched in the Indian market.
