Performance and Powertrain

The 2025 Hyundai Palisade is equipped with a 3.8-liter naturally-aspirated V6 engine that generates 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. Moreover, it can tow up to 5000 lbs which gives it a more robust performance for other uses and applications.

Additional performance metrics include a smooth ride quality that is coupled with a powerful punch when you step on the gas. In short, this Palisade gives you the best of both worlds. You also get standard front wheel drive or optional HTRAC AWD for most Palisade models.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

Safety is always a prime concern when it comes to vehicle performance. As a result, drivers today expect more from their vehicles in terms of safe technology and driver-assistance features that enhance the vehicle's capability to keep its occupants secure on the road. And the 2025 Hyundai Palisade delivers in this all-important category as well. Here are some of its safety and driver-assistance features:

  • Lane Following Assist: When activated, Lane Following Assist helps keep your vehicle within its designated lane. This system, however, will not be functional in all circumstances. It simply warns you through audible alerts if and when you begin to sway.
  • Electronic Stability Control: This system automatically helps to restabilize your vehicle if it senses a sudden loss of control. For example, swerving around corners too rapidly will trigger the system to work on your behalf.
  • Blind Spot Collision Warning: This system detects cars in your blind spot as you drive and alerts you so you're aware of their presence. As a result, you'll know when it is safe or unsafe to merge in the adjacent lane.
  • Side Impact Beams: Side impact beams (or side impact bars) are long steel bars in your vehicle's doors that will protect you in the event of a collision. They are designed to help reduce injury.

Infotainment and Connectivity

Infotainment and connectivity have become standard equipment in modern vehicles. And the 2025 Hyundai Palisade delivers a plethora of features and attributes that enhance its technological presentation. Some of its tech attributes include the following:

  • Premium 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster
  • Wireless phone charging pad

With eco-friendly vehicles quickly becoming both the norm and expectation, fuel economy is playing an increasingly larger role in people's vehicle-buying decisions. As a result, automakers (including Hyundai) are taking note and creating more eco-friendly vehicle options. So, how does the 2025 Hyundai Palisade stack up in terms of fuel-efficiency?

It delivers a fuel economy rating of 19 mpg in the city, 26 mpg on the highway, and 22 mpg combined (for front wheel drive). Conversely, you get fuel economy ratings of 19 mpg in the city, 24 mpg on the highway, and 21 mpg combined (for all-wheel drive).
