The 2022 Hyundai Palisade might be new to the three-row crossover SUV segment, but it's already one of our top picks. Packed with value, comfort and capability, the Palisade has everything shoppers are looking for. Only the lackluster handling and mediocre fuel economy could be considered demerits, but they are minor ones given this well-rounded SUV.

Pros
- Plenty of space for adults in all three rows
- Lots of standard and optional high-tech features
- Comfortable seating and ride quality
Cons
- Handling isn't quite as crisp as that of some rivals
What's new
- No major changes for 2022
- Base SE trim gets blind-spot monitoring as standard
- Part of the first Palisade generation introduced for 2020
Overview
The Hyundai Palisade is a midsize SUV with three rows of seats. This is an ideal configuration for many shoppers since it provides plenty of space for people and luggage without the need to step up to a large SUV or a minivan. The Palisade ranks a very close second to the Edmunds' Top Rated Kia Telluride, which should come as no surprise considering they're closely related under the bodywork. Each has its own style, however, with the Palisade taking on a more luxurious vibe.

There's no shortage of competitors in the midsize three-row SUV market. Besides the Telluride, you might want to also check out the well-rounded Honda Pilot, roomy Volkswagen Atlas or fuel-efficient Toyota Highlander Hybrid. But the Palisade is a standout even in this highly regarded group. Check out our Expert Rating below for our test team's full evaluation of the Palisade's comfort, utility and more.
Edmunds Expert Rating
edmunds TESTED
by the Edmunds Experts
Great
8.2
out of 10
We drove the 2022 Hyundai Palisade on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
7.5/10
How does the Palisade drive? What the Palisade lacks in all-out performance it more than makes up for with a competent and well-rounded skill set. Accelerating from a standstill to 60 mph takes 7.6 seconds, which is an average time for a three-row SUV. High-speed passing can be done with confidence. In our emergency braking tests, the Palisade demonstrated strong and predictable braking. In more routine driving, the brake pedal is easy to control for smooth stops.
Handling and steering are less of a strong point, but the big Hyundai rarely feels sloppy or out of sorts as you drive around turns. Thanks in part to a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic, the Palisade is a stress-free companion in both city and highway driving.

Comfort
8.5/10
How comfortable is the Palisade? Three-row SUVs aren't always hauling around six or seven people, so there's something to be said for having a little peace when it's just you. The Palisade delivers — there's minimal road and wind noise and the climate control system is quiet yet effective.
The front seats offer a nice mix of support for cornering and comfort for driving long distances. Just about everybody should like them. The optional second-row captain's chairs are just as good and they feel better than some front seats in other vehicles. Even the third row is decent and has a nicely contoured seat cushion.

Interior
8.5/10
How’s the interior? The Hyundai Palisade blurs the lines between near-luxury and luxury thanks to a well-appointed and comfortable interior for all its passengers. Though a few of the controls on the center stack are a bit of a reach, everything is laid out well and simple to understand. The driving position offers a commanding view out the front and sides, and the somewhat limited rear visibility can be offset with the optional surround-view camera system.
Rear passengers will also like the Palisade. The rear doors open wide, and you can easily slide the optional second-row captain's chairs up and out of the way by pushing a button. Once done, there's a clear path to the third-row seat.

Technology
8/10
How’s the tech? The Palisade is equipped with several collision avoidance and mitigation systems as well as adaptive cruise control that operates down to a stop. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity is also standard, and numerous USB ports are spread across all three rows (although only one can be used for phone connectivity). The wide infotainment screen looks sharp, and it comes with navigation that offers several useful features.
Our Limited test vehicle also had the head-up display and rear-seat intercom features; both are useful. Sound quality from the upgraded 10-speaker sound system is decent but not outstanding. Another mild disappointment is the optional turn-signal camera display in the gauge cluster. It's gimmicky and can be distracting to use.

Storage
8.5/10
How’s the storage? Trunk space is generous, with 18 cubic feet behind the third row and 87 cubes with both rows folded down. Beyond that, the hatch opening is wide and accommodating. There's also a useful underfloor compartment. The Palisade can tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped, which is average for the class.
Small-item storage is almost too much of a good thing: a fairly giant center bin with a retractable cover, a second bin on the floor between the front passenger seats, and a traditional center console. Cupholders are retractable but allow for smaller bottles to rattle about. Even the bulkiest car seats fit easily, and the seat anchors are easy to find.

Cupholders are retractable but allow for smaller bottles to rattle about. Even the bulkiest car seats fit easily, and the seat anchors are easy to find.
Fuel Economy
7/10
How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates an all-wheel-drive Palisade gets 21 mpg in combined city/highway driving. We were able to match that with our test vehicle on our real-world 115-mile evaluation route. Some rival SUVs offer better fuel economy. But you can run the V6 on regular gas, unlike some rival SUVs that require premium unleaded to return their rated power and fuel economy numbers.
Value
8.5/10
Is the Palisade a good value? The Palisade, and its corporate sibling, the Kia Telluride, might be the best value in the class. Everything is top-notch, from the driving experience to the interior quality to the standard and optional features. Even the base model seems to give you a bit extra, and in the top trims you get a near-luxury experience. Overall, we are very impressed with the quality and feel of the Palisade. You also get Hyundai's excellent 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty and five-year/unlimited mileage roadside assistance.
Wildcard
8/10
The Palisade really blurs the lines between a luxury and non-luxury vehicle. Value and quality are everywhere. This Hyundai has a breadth of talents and is sure to find itself near the top of this competitive class for a few years to come.
2022 Hyundai Palisade trim level differences
The 2022 Hyundai Palisade is a three-row midsize SUV sold in four trims: SE, SEL, Limited and Calligraphy. All are powered by a 3.8-liter V6 (291 horsepower, 262 lb-ft of torque) that is paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is an option on all trims. Compare the 2022 Hyundai Palisade trim levels in-depth.
Which Palisade trim does Edmunds recommend?
The SEL is the sweet spot in the Palisade lineup. It doesn't cost much more than the SE and comes with an impressive number of quality-of-life upgrades such as heated front seats and keyless entry with push-button start. There are also a couple of option packages that allow you to get more features without jumping all the way to the Limited or Calligraphy.

Well made/Excellent value!
5 out of 5 starsRS Orocio, 10/09/2021
2022 Hyundai Palisade Limited 4dr SUV AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
Got the 2022 Palisade Limited. From the outside it looks bigger than the average medium size but the handling is nimble and feels like driving a much smaller SUV. For the price close to 50k, the spacious interior is surprisingly luxurious and well made. The controls are pretty much intuitive and feature’s options are easy to setup.
Things that I love:
1) Surround camera is great aid in … parking, especially on tight spaces.
2) Sound system is among the best i have heard on an SUV.
3) Full list of features that can be easily set to your liking.
4) Heads Up Display (HUD) is very convenient. You don’t need to take off your eyes from the road to know the basic indicators (blind spot monitoring, turn-by-turn direction, speed, etc).
5) Adequate and strategically located USB outlets, storage spaces, and cup holders.
Things that don’t excite me are:
1) the push button shift, it confuses me specially transitioning from REVERSE to DRIVE.
2) Tailgate opens simply by standing around the rear of the car with the key in your pocket. It’s very annoying. Our CR-V needs you to “wave” your foot under the rear bumper for “hands free” opening. No accidental opening.
3) Road noise generated by the tires in contact with the pavement can be heard inside the cabin…not a deal breaker, but annoying.
4) Engine, by default setting, turns off while you’re waiting for the light to turn green. The gas it saves is minimal at best, compared to the wear and tear of your battery and starter.
Overall, the best available SUV with 3-row seats…better than my son’s Telluride.

2022 Hyundai Palisade Limited 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
Still loving it after three years!! The classic look is timeless (in my opinion) and the bells and whistles are second to none. I may never trade it in. Below is my original review if you care to read: After two family members purchased the Palisade we thought, “what do they know that we don’t know?” So, we checked it out and ‘Wow’!! We purchased the 2022 Limited edition and after … owning it for two weeks now we are blown away! I simply can’t imagine that there are more bells and whistles in existence than this vehicle has. In short it drives like a dream, it’s comfortable and has a feeling of luxury! I’m almost embarrassed to admit the following but in the spirit of full disclosure I should have listened to my wife. She wanted to look at this before we purchased the 2022 Toyota Highlander Platinum edition one month earlier. We traded it in for the Palisades after discovering that it was a pain getting in and out of! A word to the wise, check this one out first. :-)

2022 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
Left me start out by saying I have eyed this vehicle ever since it hit the market in 2020. I finally pulled the trigger and took delivery on a 2022 Calligraphy FWD in late March 2022. I’ve driven it from Dallas to Austin to San Antonio. I must say that this vehicle is the BEST vehicle I have ever driven and owned! I’ve read about the road noise, i.e., tires etc., — I must say Hyundai … needs to rethink their stock tires on their high end vehicles! I decided upgraded to the Michelin LTX Defender Tires — 24550R20’s. I’ve had Michelin’s on every vehicle I’ve owned — they NEVER disappoint! I purchased this vehicle from Bob Stallings Hyundai in Dallas, TX. They did NOT charge me over MSRP nor up-charge the MSRP price. It was a pleasant buying experience from them. I strongly recommend this vehicle which is best in it’s class.

2022 Hyundai Palisade Limited 4dr SUV AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
I bought the limited. There is nothing under 100k that can match the features and luxurious interior of this 50k suv. It drives well with average fuel economy for what it is and has a very modern sophisticated looks. Wake up honda and toyota or you will be left behind. This is no joke
