Hyundai hasn’t messed with the Palisade SUV for the 2025 model year, which arrives with a slightly higher price tag in top specification.
The flagship Calligraphy Black Ink now costs up to $1731 more before on-road costs, though the range kicks off at an unchanged $66,800 plus on-road costs.
There are no specification changes for 2025, although the Burgundy Sierra exterior paint option will be discontinued in August.
All Australian-specification Hyundai Palisade models continue to be offered with a 3.8-litre naturally aspirated V6 petrol engine and a 2.2-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel.
The former is only available with front-wheel drive in Australia, whereas the latter is only available with all-wheel drive.
A new generation of Hyundai’s largest SUV, codenamed LX3 and offering available hybrid power, was originally set to enter production in January 2025.
It has now reportedly been brought forward to December 2024 to address the growing demand for hybrid vehicles, according to the Korean Car Blog.
