Also, it comes with a reliable and powerful engine. The biggest change for the upcoming 2025 Hyundai Palisade will happen under the hood, and there will be a new engine available. It will be a hybrid powertrain. But the upcoming 2025 Palisade will keep the old engine lineup with small changes.
Changes will also happen on the interior and exterior, but they will be barely noticeable. We should see a mild redesign of the front fascia, including headlights and tail lights. For the interior, we also expect a few small changes and updates to new technology and safety systems.
The starting price of a base model will start at $39,000 and go up to $55,000 for top-tier trim.

In the United States, Hyundai plans to retain the 3.8-liter V6 engine for the Palisade. This standard engine boasts 310 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque and will continue to be available in the 2025 Hyundai Palisade. Additionally, the 2025 model will introduce a hybrid powertrain option.
There is no official news from Hyundai about the engine that they will use, but we think it will be a 2.5-liter turbo-gasoline engine that will be combined with an electric motor. This new powertrain will be able to produce up to 280 horsepower. And also, there will be a more potent hybrid variant.
This stronger variant will be able to produce up to 350 horsepower, and it will be a combination of a 3.0 gasoline engine that will be paired with an electric motor. All hybrid mills will be all-wheel-drive, and they will offer an electric range of up to 35 miles. Currently, Hyundai has not issued an official statement regarding the fuel consumption of this model. However, we anticipate it to be among the best in its class. especially when we know that a newly developed transmission will be available for this model. Also, that guarantees us good driving capabilities and driving experience.
The standard V6 powertrain will be able to tow up to 5500 pounds, and for the hybrid, we expect up to 4500 pounds of maximum pulling capacity.
2025 Hyundai Palisade Interior
The latest rumors from Hyundai suggest that the upcoming 2025 Palisade will keep nearly the same interior layout and design as the previous year’s model. That means that the interior will be spacious and luxurious, with plenty of tech features.
Some of the noticeable features will be a 12-inch digital touchscreen for the entertainment system. In the same horizontal line, we will find a 10-inch driver cluster.
Under the main screen, we will find plenty of physical buttons. In the higher-end trims, we will find a 12-speaker system from Harman, and in standard models, it will be an 8-speaker system. Some of the standard equipment will include dual-zone climate control. Heated seats and steering wheel. premium navigation system.
2025 Hyundai Palisade Redesign
The redesign of the upcoming 2025 Hyundai Palisade will include just a few minor changes. The front fascia of this SUV will receive a new headlight design, and we expect minor changes to the grille. Also, the rear light group will receive an overhaul. But the vehicle line and design language will stay the same, and it will be a mix of premium design with futuristic features. The 2025 model will also bring new premium color options. And we also expect to see a new color option for the interior. Some of the redesign changes will include new wheel options.

Price and Release Date
The price of the new 2025 Hyundai Palisade will hugely depend on the trim level and additional equipment customers will be able to choose.
The pricing will start at $39,000 for a base trim called SE. And it goes up to $55,000 for the Caligraphy Black Edition model. The cheapest trim with a hybrid powertrain will be the XRT Hybrid, and it will start at $43.000.
Our pick for the best Palisade trim is going to be the Limited because this trim will be available in the most potent variant of the V6 engine. That will mean the highest towing capacity for Palisade. And it will also come well equipped with technology and luxurious features.
The release date is expected to be officially announced at the end of 2023. And we guess that the official release date will be Q1 of 2025.
This model will meet the competition like the KIA Telluride, Toyota Highlander, Ford Explorer, and Nissan Pathfinder.
Among all competitors, Palisade will offer the most luxurious and feature-rich interior, but at the highest starting price.
