The 2026 Hyundai Palisade is now available in Australia, but the new-generation large SUV is initially being offered only in a single flagship variant priced significantly higher than the model range it replaces ($66,800-$81,719 before on-road costs).
Priced from $89,900 plus on-roads, the all-new Palisade Calligraphy Hybrid is powered by a new dual-motor petrol-electric system based around a turbocharged 2.5-litre petrol engine, which offers greater performance than the outgoing 3.8-litre petrol V6 – and better fuel economy than the previous 2.2-litre turbo-diesel.
The new hybrid powertrain sends 245kW of power and 460Nm of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission, returns combined fuel consumption of 6.8L/100km and offers a 2000kg braked towing capacity.
