I love my new Palisade, except that it is very loud on asphalt roads.

We really like the 2026 Hyundai Calligraphy. The feature set is excellent, the interior is comfortable and thoughtfully designed, and the overall value for the price is very strong. It delivers a near-premium experience without the premium price tag, and for everyday driving and family use, it meets most expectations. There are, however, a couple of drawbacks. Fuel mileage could be better, particularly with the naturally aspirated V6. While the engine is smooth and capable, its efficiency feels behind where many competitors are today. The biggest disappointment is road noise. The cabin is noticeably loud on asphalt roads, with tire and road noise intruding more than expected for a vehicle in this class. On certain surfaces, this detracts from an otherwise refined driving experience. If not for that, we would love it. Overall, we like the vehicle for its features, comfort, and value, but improvements in fuel economy and sound isolation would make it significantly better.

Best Vehicle I've Ever Owned

We joke around that the Palisade is really our kids car, but it is by far the nicest vehicle we have ever owned and the value for the bells and whistles you get is far an above any of the other vehicles in its class that we had entertained. Smooth ride, luxurious interior and sleek exterior.

Transmission needs remapping

Loved the car the new motor and transmission don't seem to like each other. The mileage is lower than my 2021 Palisade and the motor seems weaker.

It looks nice but not reliable

The car looks and feels nice. Unfortunately, it's not reliable. I've owned the car for less than 4 months and it has been to the dealer 3 times with 4 different powertrain and brake system issues that trigger the check engine light.

2026 Hyundai Palisade Review

The only issue I'm having is that I am having to take my vehicle back to the dealership for the 2nd time for this issue with my reverse light. There is condensation in the right reverse light housing unit. Other than that I love the vehicle.

Great vehicle but some issues early

This is the nicest luxury vehicle on the market. Great features. However, the air vents on the front are having real issues and the wheel well trim just popped off on its own. My local dealer is about as bad as it gets for service otherwise it wouldnt be a big deal.
