The 2023 Hyundai Palisade XRT is the Palisade’s newest trim level, a rugged version of the Palisade’s otherwise pristine image. This SUV trim level adds on some off-road features and has an outdoorsy vibe. Here’s what the 2023 Hyundai Palisade XRT will cost you, and what that price includes.

How much does the 2023 Hyundai Palisade XRT cost?

The 2023 Hyundai Palisade XRT price starts at $41,545. That’s almost $5,000 more than the base model Hyundai Palisade but more than $10,000 less than the Calligraphy, the Palisade’s highest trim level. The price is worth it if you love the outdoorsy vibe and ability of the Palisade XRT. The base model price of the 2023 Hyundai Palisade is $36,245 and the Calligraphy price $52,095.

The Hyundai Palisade XRT comes with the same engine as all other Palisades: a 3.8-liter V6 engine that makes 291 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque. It also comes standard with front-wheel-drive. If you want all-wheel-drive you’ll have to pay $1,900 for it, an interesting decision by Hyundai in an off-road SUV.

The Hyundai Palisade XRT comes loaded with features

The 2023 Hyundai Palisade XRT comes loaded with features that make this rugged SUV one that you’ll definitely want on your list if you like the look of an off-road SUV. Its updated exterior look keeps the stylish Palisade persona but gives it a little edge with 20-inch black wheels and special bumpers and skid plates, according to Car and Driver. It also has a distinctive off-road vibe with a roof rack and special dark grille.

It also comes with the same updated technology as the other 2023 Hyundai Palisades. This includes a 12.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a Wi-Fi hotspot. The 2023 Hyundai Palisade will allow for multiple driver memory settings, meaning each family member can customize their Palisade ride to be exactly how they want it. It will also have a sunroof and simulated leather interior. This should make the Palisade XRT feel a little bit like a luxury SUV, too.

The Hyundai Palisade has a whole new refresh

In addition to the new 2023 Hyundai Palisade XRT, the Hyundai Palisade as a whole is getting a refresh for the 2023 model year. It has a new face, its grille updated and its headlights’ positioning changed. The Palisade is still as functional as ever, with three-rows and plenty of space for passengers and cargo alike, making it a great family SUV.

In addition, the 2023 Hyundai Palisade can handle towing. In fact, you’ll be able to tow up to 5,000 pounds with the 2023 Hyundai Palisade, making this even more versatile for an adventurous family. Overall, the brand new Hyundai Palisade will be able to do everything you need it to, and a whole bunch of stuff that you’d like it to do.

The 2023 Hyundai Palisade promises to be as spectacular as the outgoing model is. If you’re looking for a family-friendly three-row SUV that also happens to be outfitted to look like an off-road pro, then you might love the new Hyundai Palisade XRT. Of course, if you actually want an SUV that can handle some serious off-roading, you’ll want to spring for the all-wheel-drive – or look elsewhere for your next SUV.
