About this generation

The flagship Hyundai Palisade (LX2) full-size SUV entered production in 2018, offering an expansive 8-passenger cabin and powerful Lambda V6 engines.

The flagship three-row Hyundai Palisade (LX2 platform) premiered at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November 2018. Replacing the Grand Santa Fe, the Palisade featured a commanding road presence highlighted by a cascading chrome grille and vertical LED daytime light signatures. Measuring 4,980 mm in length, the cabin accommodates up to eight passengers across three rows.

Engine technology comprises 3.5-liter MPI and 3.8-liter Lambda II Atkinson-cycle V6 petrol engines (295 hp), alongside a 2.2-liter CRDi turbodiesel. All engines pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission and available HTRAC AWD with Multi-Terrain modes. A 2022 facelift refreshed the front fascia with square parametric grille elements.
