Rented a 2024 recently. And yesterday just got picked up at the airport in a 2022 Palisade Calligraphy with 100,092 miles. Was more solid, rode better, had absolutely zero rattles or noises anywhere, and went down the road far nicer than many newer other brand vehicles I’m in daily. Hyundai Kia isn’t perfect, but their tech & design about is, and V6 models seem far more durable than some older 4 cylinders. Easy to see why “Telluride/Palisade” is still the target 3 row goal for every other brand in their design, still to this day.
Perfect timing to tune in to mini Topher and distract myself. Today is my "alive day" and the anxiety is hitting me hard right now. Appreciate all the content you give us! And good to see Emily back too
I think Hyundai hit a home run with the Palisade. It's just the perfect family vehicle, compared to their previous 3-row SUVs, like the Veracruz and the Santa Fe XL. The Palisade and the platform mate, the Telluride, are really is some of the best in their class honestly. Plus you can't go wrong with a naturally aspirated V6 engine. You don't see a lot of them anymore, and I'm glad Hyundai still makes one for the Palisade. The really only N/A V6 engines I see left are some from Lexus and Toyota, Honda and Acura, Nissan and Inifinti, and Hyundai and Kia. I might be missing some, but again, not a lot of N/A V6 engines left.
24 calligraphy owner here. We usually visit in-laws once a month with 2 kids and a dog in the suv. 2.5 hour trip one way. Speed limit being 60 mph helps on the country roads because we end up getting 28-28.5 mpg at cruise speed of 63 mph. It is crazy good for an suv this big.
I just purchased a 25 Calligraphy AWD few days ago dealership that had the beige interior trim was 70 miles away. On my way back home I got 27 mpg driving 73 mph or below in Economy mode.
Smart park is a super useful feature for wheelchair users. Sure they can park at handicap spots but if there’s none to be had and they have to park at a normal spot, they could utilize this to pull out/back out of the spot that it’s in.
Its always fun to see you and her together for a video! Your videos are always my go-to for relaxing, keep up the beyond outstanding work Topher, and good luck on your house hunt!
The Palisade really stands out in its class with the size, cargo space, technology, and chassis design. This is definitely an awesome car to road-trip the family with. Please make a video roadtrip/camptrip with the Honda Pilot Trailsport please!
When I tweak my back I find car seats are actually a positive. I think it’s their ergonomic shape and ability to set them to your liking…plus heat could definitely help.
the engine spinning up when you go into park is so that the battery doesnt die when you idle, although there could be much easier ways to program the engine to turn on to charge the battery occassionally without having the engine idle while in park.
Got a this same palisade with the cream/navy interior and we love it. Drives great,super comfy, the cruise control is the best stays in the lanes and stops and goes on its own and can keep hands of for a long ass time. The blind spot screens that come on on the cluster are also great and at first it feels weird because not used to it but after its great and helps peace of mind when changing lanes and even when turning on a street to the right you can see the front tire so you don’t accidentally hit the curve if it’s a tight turn. Just everything is really good and I think it looks great as well on the outside. 3rd row is also spacious and if you are 5’10 or less you could sit there for a long time e comfy I believe. Recommend to any odys[ecially with a family.
Thank you for adding subtitles in English and Russian. I learn English and that helps me a lot. Unfortunately, my English level around is A2, and i can understand you only with subtitles. Thank you, I appreciate it.
This looks like a decent SUV with 38 grand amid inflation. I once road tripped this one from Dallas to LA and it was incredibly comfortable and nimble. The gauge cluster looks amazing and matches perfectly with the large haptic screen.
the only reason why i think the turn asistence during a lane change is because up here in new york there's alot of fast driver's and without having the hand on the wheel at least for me for that kind of level of tech it be a depth sentence because soembody could be entering in your blind spot without you checking even though you have already looked there
Great video and lots of fun! Agree with a lot you were talking about here. To me Smart park and the side view camera thing are gimmicks that offer very particular usability. Let’s face it if you can’t get into a parking space between two cars why in the heck would you use smart park to get in there. The owners of the cars next to you would probably key your car because they can’t get in either. The garage example is somewhat viable, but with how slow it moves wouldn’t you rather just clean your garage a little so you can pull in yourself? I would be curious how many Hyundai users actually use those functions.
I’ve used that feature exactly once in a tight spot where the car that parked after me was way too close for me to open my driver side door. Worked amazingly well in that scenario. Other times I’ve used it was to simply show off the car.
I drive through MI occasionally and i feel like its always either 95mph on the highways or its 5mph in the far left lane because someone got pulled over. Nothing inbetween.
Why do they put the reserve lights not actually on the lights. Why are they so down low where hardly anyone can see it ? I never liked disconnecting the reverse lights from the brake lights housing. You can keep them all together.
I mean to be fair most cars won’t make it that long for any number of reasons. It’s quite difficult for a car to go that many miles without being in a vehicle ending collision for one thing. I think a more realistic expectation is for a drivetrain to go 150k miles. That would be a huge win if all vehicles could make it to 150k with the original drivetrain.
On a full tank of gas, the 2024 Hyundai Palisade provides a range of 395 miles. Maybe i should make that same trip in my Jaguar XJL which provides me with a range of 570 miles.
I inherited a 2011 Kia sportage and it has one of the recall engines. Even though their "recall" is just installing a knock sensor to detect vibration before the rod goes through the block. The dealer experience has been terrible too, they didn't even want to be bothered but I threatened to call corporate, only then did they actually make an appointment for me. But their claim is they'll give me a 150k or 15 year extended warranty, but you must keep documentation of oil changes during the ownership.
What is wrong with the exterior? Please explain more because this is one of the cars I am looking at purchasing. I stuck between two cars at the moment. Thanks
@@janetteredeaux3917 the grill is odd. they went with the massive grill trend. as well as the telluride grill/front end to me is ugly. i think they're going to tone it down in 2026

Love tuning in to mini Topher, you guys are such a cute couple!!!
Those blindspot cameras really do come in handy. Too bad other car manufacturers dont have this feature or execute this better.
i was just missing emily and here we are hahahaha
happy to be here!!

5:55 the weird sound was the electronic parking brake going off it seemed~ It engaged but I don't think you noticed it on the screen :)
10:18 There's something so wholesome about this scene oh my god.

you can easily get 28 mpg driving in eco doing 65 mph . only thing id like added but isnt a deal breaker is power folding mirrors
20:13 the trick to get it to not restart the engine is to turn the car off while in gear (The car will automatically put itself in park)
I drove my 2024 night edition from Cali to Virginia. It was a very nice ride.
i saw the 7k redline and then i remembered that engine is the same 3.8 v6 from the rspec genesis coupe so now it makes sense!
Even though the binaural audio makes big a diff, many of us won't notice it too often. The audio is still crisp : )
I like this road trip style of viewing new car
10:19 to 10:23 I really like how when hydunai shut it the engine and the intro lyrics plays 10/10

Hi TopherDrives, since you're road tripping the Hyundai Palisade, why not road trip the Honda Pilot afterwards if you can?
This interior is what LExus missed with their new model
LExus is making their buyers to look for a Kia/Hyundai or Lincoln
"I bumped my noggin.." hahaha Love it!!
lol Emily, I TOO wonder what the drivethrough people actually think about our boi with the camera on his face!
Very informative and relaxing vid!

Very true about the third person for memory seats my mom has a previous model RX 350 and I was the 16 year old driver saved in the memory seats 😂
That “terrible sound” you heard brother was the electronic parking brake being engaged
Just bought the 2025 palisade limited 😁😍
Hi Chris!😊 How would you feel about this Palisade and the previous Grand Highlander? Which do you prefer for a road trip?
The noise you hear at 5:57 , as far as my knowledge leads me, is the electronic parking break ingaging/disengaging.
The driver display shows 5:57 *Parking break engaged* so I am right
Chaos…Everywhere 😂❤
I drive through MI occasionally and i feel like its always either 95mph on the highways or its 5mph in the far left lane because someone got pulled over. Nothing inbetween.
Just one of those days
Thanks for the video! How do you (or anyone in the comment section) rate this compared to the Telluride?
You should make a video talking about your job
Why do they put the reserve lights not actually on the lights. Why are they so down low where hardly anyone can see it ? I never liked disconnecting the reverse lights from the brake lights housing. You can keep them all together.
Funny how the algorithm serves a competing car ad.
I have a 2008 crv and il alreaover 300k neve have any engine or major issues.. will this palisade be same up to 300k miles ? 🤔

I like the front better than the back
Do you think you could possibly feature a raptor r
Great review 👏 👌
it's so cool!!
I love this Pallisades. My only problem is the North american engines. Wish i could buy one with a diesel engine.

i can go almost 600 miles on a full tank in my RAM1500....33gal tank
@@mrdeeks-s1n Even better yet!!!
The perfect 60k mile car then get rid of it
The song you used to play was so much better go back to that song
When it comes to lane changes, I prefer to do them myself. There is no way I would trust a car to do that for me. lol
Did you know people use mobile phones now or r u stuck in the dark ages 😂😂😂😂😂😂
2024 with wired carplay? :-O or did I heard wrong?
Correct even the 2025 doesnt have wireless carplay. Crazy
@@nemesis656 what's wrong with the world 😱😱😱
You might have to reset the car so it can start learning your driving habits. That might be why it shifts like that.
14:13 blind spots monitoring system alert 🔔
Nice car but you couldn’t pay me enough to live in Michigan. Looks so cold and depressing
Hyundai Kia - gives you lots of features for cheap to distract you from the inevitable 100k engine failure.

lol I own a 2013 Kia Sorento SX, with 119k miles and my engines runs fine!
That's most vehicles nowadays, including Honda and Toyota.
@@MukisaSS
Exactly. Anything that isn't a Toyota is automatically shit in people's eyes.
there's a big difference in their theta and lambda engine line up. I own a 2010 santafe 3.5L, its got 136,000 miles.
“Day Tripping” lol fixed the title bro bro us car guys know if it’s less than 8 hours it’s a day trip 😂😂
