Posted on December 2, 2020
The Hyundai Palisade is the newest full-sized SUV in the already versatile lineup. The Palisade features a spacious interior and a rugged, yet sophisticated, exterior. While this vehicle is arguably one of the most impressive SUVs in the market today, with so many different SUVs to choose from, it can be hard to decide which one would be the right choice for you. To help you better decide, here is a look at two of the most popular SUVs on the market right now: The 2020 Hyundai Palisade and the 2020 Honda Pilot. Here is an in-depth comparison of the two vehicles to show you why the Palisade continues to be one of the most sought-after full-sized SUVs.
Exterior Features
From a distance, these two vehicles look very similar. However, once you get a closer look, you start to see the many differences. For example, the Pilot is slightly wider, longer, and taller than the Palisade. However, the Palisade is still a large vehicle, but its slightly smaller body makes it look a little sportier while also having more agility on the road and in tight spaces. The Palisade also offers m20-inch alloy wheels to give the exterior a more stylish look. And the standard LED headlights and available LED taillights help the Palisade stand out more while on the road.
Interior Design
Both the Pilot and the Palisade feature three spacious rows of seating as well as a roomy cargo area. However, the Palisade features a much more luxurious interior. The Palisade comes standard with heated front seats and a heated steering wheel to help keep the driver and front passenger warm during the cold Canadian winter. There are also ventilated front seats available to help keep you cool during the hot summer.
The Palisade also has a spacious interior that offers plenty of legroom and headspace for up to eight passengers to fir comfortably. The with the available power-folding third-row seats, both the third and second row can easily fold down flat creating up to 2,447 litres of cargo space.
High-Tech Entertainment
The Pilot comes standard with a 5-inch touchscreen infotainment display that doesn't offer a wide range of features. However, drivers can opt to get the available 8-inch touchscreen display that comes with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The Hyundai Palisade, however, comes standard with a large 8-inch touchscreen display and an available 10.25-inch colour touchscreen display. Both options come with a variety of high-tech features including Bluetooth connectivity options as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Power and Performance
When it comes to engine power, the Palisade and Pilot offer roughly the same amount of power and efficiency. The Palisade comes standard with a 3.8-litre V6 engine that comes standard with Idle Start/Stop technology and delivers 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. In comparison, the Pilot comes equipped with a 3.5-litre V6 engine that produces up to 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque.
