Need a three-row SUV that’s ready for Florida summers? The Hyundai Palisade seats the whole family in comfort, and available HTRAC all-wheel drive adds confidence in Tallahassee’s afternoon downpours and on long road trips. Shop our new Palisade inventory at Werner Hyundai, then value your trade to put equity toward your upgrade.
The Palisade seats up to eight and pairs a 3.5L V6 (287 hp) with available HTRAC all-wheel drive for sure-footed traction in summer rain. When properly equipped, it tows up to 5,000 pounds — enough for a small boat or trailer — and an available Palisade Hybrid delivers up to 329 combined horsepower for families who want efficiency without giving up space. With three rows, generous cargo room, and a quiet, tech-forward cabin, it’s built for the school run and the summer getaway alike.
Both are excellent family SUVs — the right pick comes down to size, towing, and efficiency:
| Hyundai Palisade | Hyundai Santa Fe | |
|---|---|---|
| Seating | Up to 8 | Up to 7 |
| Max towing* | Up to 5,000 lbs | Up to 3,500 lbs (4,500 lbs XRT) |
| Powertrain | 3.5L V6 (287 hp); available Hybrid (329 hp) | Available Hybrid (231 hp), up to ~37 MPG combined |
| Overall length | 196.1 in | 190.2 in |
| Best for | Most passenger/cargo space and max towing | Right-sized footprint and hybrid efficiency |
| AWD | Available HTRAC AWD | Available HTRAC AWD |
If you want the most room and towing, go Palisade. If you want a slightly smaller footprint and strong hybrid fuel economy, compare the Hyundai Santa Fe.
