If you’re looking for a capable new three-row SUV, you’ve come to the right place! At Suntrup Hyundai South, we offer a wide variety of Hyundai vehicles in all shapes and sizes, designed to cater to as many budgets and lifestyles as possible. Whatever your unique driving needs may be, we’re confident you can find something to love in our lineup! One of our best-selling models is the Hyundai Palisade, an adventurous midsize SUV with a strong engine, excellent gas mileage, and the latest comforts and conveniences throughout the cabin. It’s a great choice for any driver, but how does it compare to other popular SUVs like the new Toyota Highlander? If you’re on the fence deciding between these two models, check out the comparison guide below! Then, head to our inventory to start picking out your next ride.
Price is often the first thing that drivers see when shopping for a new ride – not to mention a major deciding factor – so it’s a great place to start our guide. Right off the bat, you’ll notice that the Hyundai Palisade is offered a more affordable starting price than the Toyota Highlander, with the Palisade starting at $35,900 MSRP and the Highlander starting at $36,620 MSRP.
Not only does it have a lower starting price, but the Hyundai Palisade offers you a better warranty plan, awarding you plenty of peace of mind on the Jefferson County roads! While Toyota offers 3 years/36,000 miles of limited coverage and 5 years/60,000 miles of powertrain coverage, Hyundai is the clear winner, offering limited coverage for up to 5 years/60,000 miles and powertrain coverage for an impressive 10 years/100,000 miles.
Now let’s go over the interior cabin size of the Hyundai Palisade vs. Toyota Highlander. They’re both classified as midsize SUVs with three rows of seats, so naturally their interior dimensions aren’t too different. However, you’ll notice that the Hyundai Palisade pulls ahead in both passenger and cargo volume, meaning you can stretch out in style and still have room for plenty of gear!
