The Hyundai Palisade’s tried-and-true powertrain combination is one of the many reasons why the model remains a top choice for many drivers. The Palisade can also rack up 200,000 miles or more with proper maintenance and handling. But what about its fuel economy ratings?
Hyundai Palisade Gas Mileage
The Palisade’s gas mileage largely depends on the type of drivetrain. The SUV’s front-wheel drive (FWD) option has an EPA-estimated 19 miles per gallon (mpg) for city drives, 26 mpg on the highway, and a combined output of 22 mpg.

Meanwhile, the all-wheel drive Palisade has the same mpg output for city drives at 19 mpg, 24 mpg on the highway, and a combined output of 21 mpg.
The average fuel rating for SUVs is 29 mpg, which means the Hyundai Palisade isn’t the most fuel-efficient vehicle in its class. Given that both Palisade drivetrains run on gasoline, the model is expected to fall behind diesel-powered SUVs in terms of fuel economy.
Other Hyundai Palisade Specs
Hyundai’s largest SUV comes in five trim levels一SE, SEL, XRT, Limited, and Calligraphy. And although it might fall behind its competitors in terms of fuel efficiency, there are several reasons why it remains a popular pick in the full-size SUV segment.
Performance
An eight-speed automatic transmission is a standard feature on the Palisade, as well as a transmission cooler, trailer pre-wiring, and sway control. Powered by a 3.8-liter V6 engine, the SUV can churn out 291 horsepower.
The SEL trim, which falls under the Palisade’s base models, already displays impressive acceleration performance, going from 0-60mph in as fast as 6.9 seconds.
Cabin and Interior Space
The SE and SEL trims have a seating capacity that accommodates up to eight passengers while the Limited and Calligraphy options have seven because of the second-row captain’s chairs.

In terms of cargo volume, the Palisade has about 86 cubic ft. of space with all the seats folded. Stowage measurements drop to 46 cubic ft. with the second-row seats held in the upright position.
Safety Features
Safety is a top priority when choosing the right vehicle for many drivers. Those eyeing the Palisade as their next daily driver can expect nothing less than premium safety features.
Automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control with semi-autonomous driving mode are standard features on all Palisade trims.
Infotainment and Connectivity
All trims come with a 12-inch touchscreen infotainment display with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The system can also accommodate up to seven USB cables and two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. Locking, unlocking, and starting the Palisade can also be done remotely via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
