2026 Hyundai Palisade Raises the Bar with XRT PRO and Calligraphy

The 2026 Hyundai Palisade has undergone a bold redesign and significant upgrades that solidify its status as the brand’s flagship SUV. With the addition of a new hybrid powertrain, expanded tech, and the all-new XRT PRO trim aimed at off-road capability, Hyundai is taking direct aim at top competitors like the Ford Explorer, Toyota Grand Highlander, and Kia Telluride.

Hyundai’s strategy for the Palisade is clear: deliver premium comfort, modern design, and real capability at a competitive price. Starting at $38,935 and topping out at $58,280 for the fully loaded Calligraphy AWD Hybrid, the new Palisade brings luxury and ruggedness to the mainstream SUV segment.

The 2026 Hyundai Palisade is no longer just a family hauler. With the introduction of the off-road-focused XRT PRO and the luxurious Calligraphy Hybrid, Hyundai is redefining what a mainstream three-row SUV can be. Whether you’re heading to the trailhead or the valet stand, the Palisade offers the capability, comfort, and cutting-edge tech to make the trip enjoyable and stress-free.

Hyundai’s ambitious upgrades make the Palisade a serious contender in an increasingly competitive segment, and it now stands tall among rivals like the Ford Explorer, Toyota Grand Highlander, Chevrolet Traverse, and Honda Pilot. With its blend of performance, refinement, and value, the 2026 Palisade might just be the new benchmark.
