 So if you guys want to go back to another one of your new channel, I am Will Planey, I do new car truck SUV reviews on YouTube. And today we're in the new 2024 Hyundai Palisade courtesy of Jack D'Ambalbo, Hyundai and York PA for more information on their inventory. Please feel free to check out the link in the description box below. So we're in this one today because you get a heck of a lot of value for all of the features that they put in this thing. So that is one thing. You also get America's best warranty being five years, 60,000 mile bumper to bumper, 10 years, 100,000 miles on the power train. You also get three years or 36,000 miles of complimentary maintenance, which is also the very best out there right now. This is a very good looking SUV in my personal opinion. So ultimately in this video, we will be testing out and going over everything about this one from acceleration to braking, steering field, ride quality, sound system, exhaust pipe, all that fun stuff. So having said all of that, what do you guys say? Let's just go ahead and jump right into it. And as always, let's start with pricing. So as you can imagine, there are several different trim levels for the 2024 Palisade. First one being the SE starting at $36,400, SEL for $39,150, XRT for $41,550, limited for $47,700. Lastly, the calligraphy being the one we're in today, starting at $50,100. And so that was all pricing for the front wheel drive setup. If you wanted to add all wheel drive, simply add $2,000 then to any of those prices. But regardless of trim level that you go with, the power plant is going to be the same. Powering the beast is a 3.8 liter direct injected V6, putting out 291 horsepower at 6,000 RPM, 262 pound feet of torque coming in at 5,200 RPM. That power being sent the front wheels or all wheels through an eight speed automatic with paddle shifters, which you guys know as always, we will be testing out here in a little bit. Zero to 60 time coming in at approximately 7.1 seconds with MPG numbers coming in at 19 and city 26 on the highway for the front wheel drive. 19 city 24 then on the highway for the all wheel drive. But taking regular unleaded fuel, save a little bit of money there. Got to love it. But anyways, before we do any kind of paddle shifter or acceleration test that didn't want to mention to you guys the drive modes, there's actually a circular dial located just below the climate control settings and that will give you comfort, eco, sports, smart and snow, adjusting things like the shift points, the throttle response, steering sensitivity, all wheel drive system engagement, and it's going to tighten up the side bolsters as well, at least if you go with the calligraphy term level in the sport driving mode, kind of like a G wagon would. So that is absolutely insane. But anyways, now having got all of that out of the way, what do you guys say? Let's go ahead and find a straightaway. Let's put the paddle shifters and acceleration here to the test. I want to see how quickly the paddle shifters are going to react. Also want to see how quickly we can get this one here up the speed. I got it in sport driving mode. Let's see if it holds manual shift mode here. Go on delay, big delay. All right, it's quick. It's relatively quick. So no issues emerging onto the highway. But dang is there a delay to those paddle shifters. Unfortunately, not that I expected anything less, because typically in SUVs, you don't have the quickest reacting paddle shifters. So I don't know it's a delay. But the one good thing about having paddle shifters in an SUV is when it does snow out, rather than hitting the brakes and risk sliding off the road, you could, of course, simply just do a little bit of downshifting using the paddle shifters, so that lets the engine do a little bit of the breaking so you're less likely to then slide off the road. So that is there for you if you want to. But anyways, to go along with that acceleration as always, breaking is equally important. So upfront, you will find 13.4 inch ventilated front discs in the back. 12.4 inch solid rear discs. As far as that, 60 is easier. Stopping distance goes that comes in at 126 feet. As far as that breaking feel goes, it kind of feels like that. So definitely on the softer side, soft breaking feel, not a firm breaking feel, but typically, I don't know, you don't really want a firm breaking feel in an SUV, quite honestly. But having said that a little bit firmer on this one, I would not have minded because I mean, if you look at Volvo, they're the safest cars in the world. Their 60 to zeroes typically come in at right around 114, 115 feet, so a little bit on the higher end of things. But not as bad as a lot of other SUVs. I've seen as high as 139, so it'll get the job done. I'll put it that way. But anyways, touching on suspension and handling, upfront, you're going to get a McPherson strut front suspension in the back, independent multi-link rear suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars. As far as ride quality goes, that has been perfectly fine. I'm on a short little test drive here today as I go over a speed bump. So I've had no issues whatsoever when it comes to ride quality. As far as steering feel goes, it is weighted on the heavier side of things right now because I have it in that sport driving mode. Like I said, that steering feel will adjust, depending upon the drive mode that you put it in. So if I put it back in comfort driving mode, it is going to instantly loosen up, give them a much more of an SUV-like steering feel. So don't want to mention that. So a little something for everyone. I'll put it that way. As far as cabin noise goes, as I'm blasting the air right now because it's like 90 degrees out, it's honestly great. Like cabin noise is one of the better parts of the Palisade for sure because all trim levels get an acoustic laminated front windshield. If you were to go with the SEL and up, you will get acoustic laminated front door glass. And then with the limited and calligraphy, you're going to find acoustic laminated rear door glass as well. A lot of times, even on luxury vehicles, you won't find the acoustic laminated rear door glass. You always get the front, but you very rarely ever get the rear. So that is why it is such a serene cabin in the Palisade. There's so much luxury in this thing for not really a luxury price point. So 53,000, that is amazing considering you don't get acoustic laminated rear door glass even in Mercedes, which go for like 90,000. What I'm getting at is quite honestly, that is an incredible value. I'm just going to put it that way. But then taking a look at rear visibility, I can see perfectly fine out the back. I will say, I don't have the third row up right now. Maybe those third row headrests are large and in charge. I really don't know yet because I haven't checked them out. But right now, I can see perfectly fine out the back. Rain sensing windshield wipers are going to come standard on the limited and calligraphy. So that means whenever it starts raining out, it's going to automatically turn on these windshield wipers for you. So just one less thing you got to worry about there and that's going to assist with forward visibility. And right now I am looking at a head up display, which again, come standard on the limited and calligraphy that is projecting my speed, speed limited safety features up onto my windshield. I will say, it's kind of hard to see with sunglasses on but if I were to take them off, that is super bright display, but with sunglasses on, you can't really see it. I'll just put it that way. But anyways, that about wraps up the performance segment of this review guys. Let's now go ahead and take a look at the exterior of our brand new 2024 Hyundai Palisade. All right, so here she is you guys, the new 2024 Hyundai Palisade finished in Sierra Burgundy. This is a new color. I haven't reviewed on this one yet. So let me know what you guys think in the comments section below. But there is a new calligraphy night edition for 2024. I wanted to mention that since we have the calligraphy, we don't have the night edition however, but I did want to mention it is available if you wanted to go that route. Also wanted to mention up front since we're up here is the XRT trim level is going to give you slightly more ground clearance compared to all the other trim levels available for the Palisade. So if you want to do a little bit of light overlanding that may be the trim level that you want to go with but let's go ahead and start with where this one is made. Taking a look at the VIN first character is the letter K indicating Korea being this one is built and assembled in South Korea. So gotta love it. But let's go ahead and start up front. LED headlights do come standard on all trim levels across the board. Get the automatic feature with that of course, meaning when it starts to get dark in at night the headlights will turn on automatically for you there. But also automatic high beams coming standard on every trim level across the board. So if you have your high beams on at night and it senses a vehicle coming in the opposite direction it's gonna automatically dim them back to low beams then when that vehicle is gone it's gonna automatically bounce it back up to high beams. So very convenient feature there. LED daytime running lights of course as well that looks good. LED accent lighting you get front skid plates for all trim levels across the board as well. Front air curtains to the sides there helping direct air around the wheel entire combination. You do have that adaptive cruise control sensor found on the very bottom portion of that front bumper. I'm gonna show that to you guys real quick. And I like the aluminum trim accent they found on the very bottom as well that definitely looks good. But overall definitely a very, very good looking front end. It looks like nothing else on the roads. It definitely, Hyundai gave it a very unique look. So I'm a fan but anyways that pretty much rounds out the front end. Now go ahead and make our way to the side. All right and so now since we are around to the side of the Palisade roof rails do come standard on the SEL trim level and up. If you wanted those black crossbars coming on the XRT the XRT of course being the off road trim level I guess you could say. Rear privacy glass coming standard across the board satin chrome windows surrounds coming standard across the board as well. You will get some matte black side skirts for the SEL trims. However, body colored side skirts if you were to go with the limited or calligraphy take a look at the side mirrors that are body colored power adjustable side mirrors. They will be heated. They will be auto dimming as well. That's a rare one especially in this particular class. So huge fan of that and LED integrated turn signals coming with that as well. They take a look down at the wheel setup 18 inch alloys for the SE and SEL trims. 20 inch alloys for the XRT, the limited and the calligraphy. So they're all gonna kind of get a unique look to them. So like these calligraphy wheels you're not gonna find them on any of the other trims. They are unique to this specific trim level. So I do wanna emphasize that I do like the satin chrome door handles. I like the chrome accenting found at the bottom portion of the doors as well. Very good looking but anyways, let's not go ahead and make our way to the back. All right, so now since we are around to the back all the way to the top you do have a gloss black shark fin antenna. Just below that rear spoiler with an integrated brake light. Just below that rear window wiper. You do have some lettering found on the back of this one. It does say please like the video right now. It does help me out substantially. So didn't wanna emphasize that. Also got the H track badging back there because every single manufacturer names their all wheel drive systems and Hyundai has chosen to name it H track. So got that halogen tail lights do come on the SC trim level but all other trims are gonna give you LED tail lights. So a little added illumination there. I do like the aluminum trim yet again on the bottom portion of that rear bumper to tie in together with the front bumper. Of course, you will find a single exhaust outlet with dual satin chrome tips coming standard on this one. So absolutely love that. So having said that, I do believe you guys know what we have to do next because always here is that exhaust clip. All right, so now since we are around to the back of the Palisade when it comes to opening that rear tailgate it is gonna be a hands free power tailgate for the limited and calligraphy trim level. So if you have your hands full you just need to kick your foot underneath. It's gonna automatically open up for you but once opened up cargo capacity comes in at 18 cubic feet even behind that third row. Of course, if that is not enough space the third row does fold down. There are some buttons back there in the cargo area to fold it down. It's extremely easy as well. Bumping that up to 45.8 cubic feet and then with all rows folded 86.4 cubic feet. So ton of space there for comparison's sake. Pilot comes in at 87 cubic feet. So identical to that basically. Highlander comes in at 84.3 cubic feet. Telluride is I think at 87 or 88 cubic feet. So they're all about the same more or less but there is a 60-40 split then for that second row. But grocery bag hooks can be found back there. There is LED cargo lighting, love that. 12-volt power outlet as well. Tie-down anchors. There's some seat belt hooks, always like seeing those. And there is some in-floor storage and quite a bit of it too. Much more in-floor storage than I'm typically used to seeing. So definitely a big fan of that. You can put tire and flater kits back there or ice scrapers, whatever you need. But then make your way up to the third row legroom that's gonna come in at 31.4 inches. For reference, I'm in even six feet tall. This is how much space I had in that third row. There are some rear cup holders back there and if you were to go with the limited or calligraphy you will also find USB charging port. So if you got kids that are obsessed with tablets those two trims might be the ones for you. But anyways, then make your way up to the second row legroom that is gonna come in at 42.4 inches. Again, for reference, I'm in even six feet tall. This is how much space I had back there. If you wanna cap this chairs, go with the SEL trim level and up. If you wanted the bench seating being for three people in the middle, go with the SE, it's gonna be optional on the SEL. So I did wanna emphasize that. Automatic climate control does come standard for all trim levels across the board. That is new for 2024 by the way. So that is pretty cool. Dual rear USB charging ports coming standard. Heated rear seats with the limited and calligraphy trim levels. That is pretty darn cool. Ventilated rear seats as well for that limited and calligraphy. 115 volt power outlet, limited and calligraphy. There is a 12 volt power outlet as well. And here's another thing that's new for 2024. Rear window sunshades come on the XRT trim level and up the XRT didn't use to get those rear window sunshades but it does now for 2024. So that's pretty cool. Now let's go ahead and make our way up to the front seats manually adjustable claws seating for the SE, high text trim seats being leatherette really for the SEL and XRT trim levels. And then we'll be heated and power adjustable with power lumbar for those two trims as well. Then the limited trim level is gonna add to that leather seating four way power lumbar, thigh cushion extension, ventilated front seats and memory settings. Lastly, the calligraphy is going to give you that premium an apple leather and an Ergo motion driver seat. Like I was saying with the sport driving mode it tightens up the side bolsters, which again is something that I first saw in a G-Wag and a $200,000 SUV. But now you got into the Palisade. So that's wonderful. But overall seating was incredible, incredibly comfortable. So definitely not gonna have any issues with taking this thing on a long road trip. But now let's go ahead and take a look at the steering wheel. Cause it's still dang good for our calligraphy trim level. So tilt and telescoping, leather wrapped for the SEL trim level and up two tone leather wrapped for the calligraphy. That is something straight off of Volvo right there. They always do that. And then heated for the limited and calligraphy trim levels as well. Then make your way to the startup. Let me start by showing you guys the key here. You got your Hyundai logo on the one side. Then when you flip it over, lock, unlock and that hold button that's gonna be a remote start. But my favorite part is SmartPak. So if you got kids and somebody pulls too close to you on either side and your kids can't get in without absolutely smashing their door next to them. SmartPak is gonna help you out because you simply just lock the vehicle, do the remote start and then you can pull it in or back it out to the point where they can actually get in a heck of a lot easier. Swing their door wide open without completely rucking the person next to you. So that is definitely a feature that if you have kids you're gonna understand it. But keyless entry with the push button start does come standard on all trim levels across the board and the SEL trim level enough is also gonna give you a digital key. So you don't even need the keys if you didn't want them. Anyways, I'm just gonna put my front of the break and press that silver engine start button located just to the left of that air vent. So once started up analog gauges coming with the SEL and XRT trims. However, limited in calligraphy are gonna give you a 12.3 inch digital gauge cluster speedometer on the left, tachometer is on your right. And again, they do adjust dependent upon the drive mode that you put it in. So if I put it in the sport driving mode it tightened up the side bolsters again but it's also gonna completely change the look of the gauges and I think, oh, eco drive mode is gonna look a lot cooler as well. I didn't know there was this many options. So eco is one of my favorite looks for the drive modes. I gotta say comfort is all right. Sport is pretty cool but I think the eco colors is my favorite look overall quite honestly. But anyways, it gives you your outside temperature, how many miles you have left until you hit empty pretty much everything you possibly want up there. And of course, if you put the turn signals on it's gonna give you that blind spot view monitor so you can see what is in your blind spot on the gauges themselves which is also pretty darn crazy. But now let's go ahead and make our way to overall interior quality. Power sunroof coming on the XRT trim level. Dual panel sunroof for the limited and calligraphy. So rear passengers also have a view of the sky and I mean like second and third row. So definitely goes back pretty far. LED interior lighting for the SEL trim level and up you got a school bus style mirror that does come standard. That's pretty cool. Micro fiber headliner with the calligraphy. I have to mention that the headliners do differ dependent upon the trim but microfiber it's like a nice suede feel to it. So I love that 64 colors of ambient lighting for the calligraphy and the limited. So that is new for the limited for 2024. By the way, lots of changes for the trim levels but auto dimming rear view mirror with homely controls for the SEL trim level and up tri-zone climate control for all trim levels. Wireless phone charger for the SEL trim level and up. Wilton leather door panels for the calligraphy trim level. Gotta love that. I see that. That definitely looks pretty darn good. And I like this black and white kind of texturized look that's found on the doors. It continues on just above the passenger side glove box. Also a very nice look to it. Just surrounding all the shift buttons is this nice texturized silver finish and it is texturized. So I like that as well. A lot of manufacturers, especially in its class will leave that a matte black or a matte gray but Hyundai always chooses to do a nice finish to it. Although it's still plastic. It looks a heck of a lot better than usually the competition end up doing. So just behind that, you got a couple cup holders. There's a wireless phone charger beside the cup holders of course. And then the center arm rest. There is a decent amount of storage in there for sure. Got a 12 volt power outlet and a USB charging port as well. So that is pretty darn cool. Look at the speaker covers. That's a pretty nice finish as well. We'll get into the sound system. We'll test that out in a second. And forgot to mention homely controls with a frameless rear view mirror. So that's for up to three different garage doors. Like that as well. But now let's go ahead and make our way to the infotainment screen. So every single trim level is going to give you a 12.3 inch color touchscreen display. Love that. Bluetooth and audio streaming Android Auto Apple CarPlay. Get this. Factory navigation system for every single trim level across the board. So if you're like me and you periodically drive through the Appalachian mountains where there's no service whatsoever, that's when the factory navigation system comes handy. But anyways, climate control settings you can access up there. There's a voice memo system where you can record your voice and play back at a later date. There's also quiet mode where it eliminates the rear speakers and then limits the speaker volume up front. So if you got your kids sleeping in the back it doesn't wake them up. That's pretty cool. You can check out your ambient lighting settings up there of course as well along with your radio information. And so when it comes to the sound systems there's a couple of them. You got six speakers for the SESEL and XRT trims then a 12 speaker Harman Kardon sound system for the limited and calligraphy trims. So having said that I do believe you guys know what we have to do next. Let's go ahead and turn on the radio. See what we got playing today and let's test out the clarity of this one. I run with kids now. I'm talking about kids now. I'm talking about Mary. All right. Yeah. There was a ton of bass in that song and you can feel that bass because there's a ton of bass in this sound system. I won't say that. So clarity was fine. Bass was ridiculous possibly because of the song. I don't know but that is a pretty darn good sound system for sure. And like I said, the speaker covers look dang good as well. But last thing I wanted to mention to you guys on the infutainment screen is when you do put the Palisade in reverse there's a pretty darn high definition rear view camera that does come standard but you also get a 360 degree monitor for the limited and calligraphy that's going to be that bird's eye view on the right which is always it's going to lead us into safety. So let me start by saying IIHS top safety pick plus which is the very highest designation given by IIHS meaning it doesn't get any safer than this. You got to love that. Front side, side current airbags do come standard. You got a driver's knee airbag up front as well. In the back you're going to have latch AKA lower anchors and tethers for children for the rear car seats, rear child door locks tire pressure monitoring system but also coming standard a blind spot monitoring system with rear cross traffic alert. Yes, every trim level gets that love that forward collision avoidance assist lane following assist lane keep assist driver attention warning system safe exit assist rear parking sensors and adaptive cruise control with stop and go which I always say Hyundai does better than any other brand out there. It is an amazing system for this thing. So overall when it comes to my final thoughts of the Palisade excellent safety you can't beat an IIHS top safety pick plus digital gauges are wonderful as well. I love the colors in the eco driving mode but if you don't you like the carbon fiber background put it in sport or you could use traditional setup in the comfort mode. So they're completely customizable. I love that ambient lighting is great as well. Not quite as good as BMW and Mercedes but it's still dang good. And it's insane to think that you can get this vehicle for under $40,000. So you got to admit this is an incredible value when you consider what you get with the 12.3 inch screen with the three years of 36,000 miles of complimentary maintenance America's best warranty safest vehicle possible. This is a very good family hauler without a doubt. I really can't think of anything that could possibly make this vehicle any better. But anyways that is about it for this one.
