2025 Hyundai Palisade Performance Feature

Power and Efficiency

The 2025 Palisade comes equipped with a 291-hp 3.8L V6 engine, providing smooth and confident acceleration. This model is ideal for families who value a bit more power under the hood. It also leads the way in towing, with the ability to pull up to 5,000 lbs. with trailer brakes, and includes Trailer Sway Control to help keep everything steady.

On the other hand, the 2025 Santa Fe features a more efficient yet still strong 2.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, delivering 277 horsepower. It’s a great balance of everyday power and improved fuel efficiency with up to 29 MPG on the highway (FWD). With a 3,500-lb towing capacity, the Santa Fe still gives you the flexibility to bring along trailers, bikes, or weekend gear. Both SUVs feature Drive Mode Select, allowing you to tailor your drive to suit the road conditions.

2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Tech Feature

Tech That Keeps Everyone Connected

Inside both models, Hyundai equips you with modern, easy-to-use tech designed to keep drivers and passengers connected, entertained, and informed. The Palisade offers a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation, Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®, and advanced features like Wi-Fi hotspot capability, Dynamic Voice Recognition, and Hyundai Pay. With Bluelink+, staying connected to your vehicle remotely is easy, and Multiple Device Connection lets more than one passenger stay synced.

The Santa Fe matches the Palisade with a 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®, and OTA (Over-the-Air) update capability to keep your system up to date. Rear Seat Quiet Mode is another thoughtful addition, letting front-seat passengers enjoy music or phone calls without disrupting passengers in the rear. Both models include HD Radio™, SiriusXM®, Bluetooth® streaming, and Bluelink+ remote services.

2025 Hyundai Palisade Interior Feature

Practical Interior Space

The Palisade is Hyundai’s largest SUV, accommodating up to 8 passengers with the 2nd-row bench seat. Features like a one-touch 2nd-row seat slide and electric cargo-area releases make it easy to load passengers or gear, while cloth seating surfaces and a 6-way adjustable driver seat keep things comfortable up front.

Meanwhile, the Santa Fe seats up to 7 passengers, offering a more streamlined size while still including 3rd-row seating. The YES Essentials® stain-resistant cloth seats and power release second-row make cleanup and access to the back row simple, while features like a leather-wrapped steering wheel and 2-way power lumbar support add extra comfort. Whether you're navigating tight parking spaces or need all the space you can get, both cabins offer smart layouts that make daily life easier.
