New Hyundai Palisade: Design
The new Hyundai Palisade now leans towards more angular shapes, which is a major departure from the SUV’s rounder and more subdued predecessor. Its design philosophy echoes the smaller Hyundai Santa Fe but has a more polished and sophisticated look. It gets vertically stacked LED headlamps, a larger grille, a shorter front overhang, longer wheelbase. Thanks to the blacked-out pillars, flat beltline and LED taillights, from certain angles, the new Palisade looks like it has taken inspiration from Range Rover. It runs on 21-inch alloy wheels. Dimensionally, the SUV now measures similar to the Hyundai Ioniq 9.
