2024 Hyundai Palisade price and specs

The Hyundai Palisade flagship large SUV has received new features and a revised model range for the 2024 model year. Deliveries are starting now.

As recently detailed, Hyundai Australia has adopted the Calligraphy nameplate, which takes the place of the Highlander variant. This naming now bring it in line with what’s offered in Korea and the US.

The 2024 Hyundai Palisade is now also available in a new Calligraphy Black Ink flagship variant that in other markets is referred to as the Calligraphy Night. It’s essentially a blacked-out variant with dark elements inside and out.

The Palisade Calligraphy Black Ink is only offered in Australia with Abyss Black and Creamy White exterior paints.

Pricing has been increased by up to $1530, depending on the variant, with the range now starting at $66,800 before on-roads for the Elite FWD V6, and extending to $80,900 before on-roads for the Calligraphy Black Ink AWD diesel.

The Palisade Elite now gains acoustic laminated front door glass, a heated steering wheel, an eight-way power adjustable passenger seat, melange knit headliner, wood-like trim inserts, alloy scuff plates, and a carpet cargo mat.

The Palisade Calligraphy now also receives touch-type climate control buttons, water-repellent front door glass, and acoustic laminated rear door glass.

All Australian-specification Hyundai Palisade models continue to be offered with the 3.8-litre naturally aspirated V6 petrol engine and the 2.2-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel.

The former is only available with front-wheel drive, whereas the latter is only available with all-wheel drive.

For now there’s no hybrid option available, though Korean outlet ET News reported earlier this year the next-generation Palisade, codenamed LX3, is due to enter production in 2025 and will swap the diesel for a pair of hybrids and a new turbocharged petrol V6.
