Hyundai has created something special with the 2024 Palisade Calligraphy AWD. It’s a vehicle that doesn’t just compete with luxury SUVs – in many ways, it shows them up.
In the ever-evolving landscape of luxury SUVs, Hyundai continues to prove that premium experiences needn’t come with premium brand badges. The $54,000 2024 Palisade Calligraphy AWD stands as a testament to this philosophy, offering an impressive blend of luxury, technology, and practicality that has luxury brands looking over their shoulders.
Pull up to the valet in the Palisade Calligraphy, and you’ll make an entrance. The imposing cascading grille and vertical LED lighting elements create a distinctive face that commands attention. While some may find the front fascia polarizing, there’s no denying its presence. The 20-inch alloy wheels and tasteful satin chrome accents complete a package that looks right at home among more expensive company.
Step inside, and the Calligraphy truly comes into its own. The cabin wraps you in quilted Nappa leather upholstery that extends to all three rows. The dual sunroof configuration floods the interior with natural light, making the already spacious cabin feel even more expansive.
Behind the wheel, the Palisade proves itself a composed cruiser. The 3.8-liter V6 engine, producing 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, delivers smooth, confident power through an eight-speed automatic transmission. While it won’t set any lap records, the HTRAC all-wheel-drive system ensures sure-footed handling in various conditions. The ride quality strikes an excellent balance between comfort and control, soaking up road imperfections while maintaining composure through corners. All-in-all, the SUV delivers 19 miles per gallon in the city and 24 miles per gallon on the highway.
The technology suite impresses with its completeness and ease of use. Twin 12.3-inch displays – one for instruments and one for infotainment – dominate the dashboard, offering crisp graphics and intuitive interfaces. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, as does a premium Harman Kardon audio system that turns the cabin into a concert hall.
Family-friendly features abound. The third row accommodates adults comfortably. USB ports scattered throughout all three rows keep devices charged, while second-row captain’s chairs with heating and ventilation coddle passengers just as much as those up front. The digital key capability means you’ll never fumble for keys with arms full of groceries again.
Safety features are comprehensive and well-executed. Highway driving assist takes the stress out of long journeys, while safe exit assist and blind spot monitoring provide peace of mind in daily use. The forward collision avoidance system proves particularly intelligent, intervening only when truly necessary.
For families seeking premium transportation without the premium price tag, the Palisade Calligraphy AWD deserves a spot at the top of the shopping list. It’s not just a good value – it’s a genuine luxury SUV with Hyunda’s trademark reliability and safety features. Give it a spin and tell me what you think.
