Overview
The 2026 Hyundai Palisade Elite is the entry point to the second-generation eight-seat family SUV, using a 245kW/460Nm 2.5-litre turbo-petrol hybrid with all-wheel drive and a claimed 6.8L/100km. It brings the same 5-star ANCAP safety (tested 2025) and roomy three-row cabin as the flagship at a lower price, trading away the Calligraphy's ventilated seats, memory driver's seat and other luxury touches. It is a strong pick if you want the hybrid drivetrain and space without paying for the top-grade extras.

Range in the real world
How far a tank really takes you once speed, load and towing are counted, not just the lab figureTowing and load
The 4WD and load hardware this variant lists, the rig calculator, the load plans and the cost to towCost to tow
The real fuel/energy cost once you hitch up. Pick a trailer and trip.
⚠ Not every limit could be checked: the manufacturer publishes no payload or GCM for this vehicle, so this verdict rests only on the limits that are published.
Estimate only: consumption rises as range falls; real use varies with terrain, wind and load.
Off-Road Capability
The wedges are drawn from this vehicle’s published approach, departure and breakover angles, and the water line marks its published wading depth.
Unladen figures. Approach, departure and breakover angles and ground clearance all reduce once the vehicle is loaded with passengers, cargo or towball weight, so treat these as a best-case guide.
Manufacturer-published figures, shown as a guide. Not independently verified and may vary by variant, trim, tyre or model year. Vehicle drawings are schematic and ride-height differences are exaggerated for legibility. Confirm with the manufacturer before relying on them for off-road planning.
Child seats and anchors
ISOFIX lower anchors clip a compatible child seat straight to the car's frame, the quickest, most mistake-proof fit.
Top-tether straps stop a forward-facing seat pitching in a crash. Australian law requires a tether on every forward-facing child seat, so rear seats almost always have them.
Most 5-seat cars carry 2 ISOFIX on the outer 2nd-row seats plus tethers across the row; some 7-seaters add anchors in the third row.

With all eight seats up the 2026 Hyundai Palisade XRT Pro 2.5T AWD has 317 litres of boot, and folding the rear seats opens that out to 2,098 litres. It's a large petrol SUV with an automatic and all-wheel drive, priced at $79,900 RRP, which is the recommended retail price before on-road costs. Fuel use is 11.2L/100km on the combined cycle and braked towing is rated at 2,200kg. We don't have a warranty figure for it yet. It suits a big family that needs eight seats and wants to pull a decent trailer or van.
