The 2024 Hyundai Palisade SUV has undergone a series of minor equipment enhancements and will soon be available in Australian dealerships, accompanied by a price increase ranging from $900 to $1530.
Hyundai Palisade Elite, the base model, has seen a price bump of $900. It now starts at $66,800 (excluding on-road costs) in its 3.8-litre petrol V6 FWD configuration and $70,800 for the AWD 2.2-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel version.
The previous top-tier 'Highlander' model has been renamed to 'Calligraphy'. This variant now costs $75,900 for the V6 petrol (an increase of $935) and $79,900 for the turbo-diesel (a rise of $1530).
In terms of equipment, the 2024 Palisade Elite now features enhancements like acoustic front door glass, a heated steering wheel, and an eight-way power-adjustable front passenger seat among others.
The Palisade Calligraphy sees the addition of touch controls for its tri-zone climate system and hydrophobic front door glass. A newly introduced model, the Palisade Calligraphy Black Ink, boasts dark-themed external and internal finishes and costs an additional $1000 over the regular Calligraphy's pricing for both petrol and diesel models.
Powertrain options remain the same: a 217kW/355Nm 3.8-litre petrol V6 for FWD and a 147kW/440Nm 2.2-litre turbo-diesel for AWD. Both come paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and report fuel efficiencies of 10.7L/100km and 7.3L/100km respectively.
The updated 2024 Hyundai Palisade is currently on sale in Australia.
