The 2020 Hyundai Palisade Looks Great But Is There a Catch? | First Look | Edmunds

Hyundai revealed its new flagship SUV, the three-row Palisade, at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show. This big crossover sports all the latest safety and technology features, an upscale and roomy interior, and a few tricks three-row SUV shoppers should appreciate. One question mark is the V6, which makes good power on paper but has a bit of a quirk. Edmunds Content Strategist & News Editor Will Kaufman gives you a first glimpse at the new Hyundai Palisade.

Q: What are the Hyundai Palisade's competitors?
A: The Palisade will compete against other three-row SUVs including the Ford Explorer, Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander.

Q: What kind of engine does the Palisade have?
A: The Palisade has a 3.8-liter V6 that, surprisingly, runs on the Atkinson cycle. That's what Toyota uses in the Prius' gas motors to eke out more fuel economy at the cost of some performance. Even so, the Palisade's V6 still makes 291 horsepower.

Q: When will the Hyundai Palisade go on sale?
A: The Palisade should go on sale in 2019 as a 2020 model.

Q: How much will the Palisade cost?
A: Hyundai hasn't released pricing information for the Palisade, but we expect it to be priced competitively for the segment. That means prices should start a little over $30,000.
