A three-row SUV built for Flathead Valley families
Big families and busy weekends need more than a two-row crossover. The 2027 Hyundai Palisade gives you a real third row, room behind it for groceries or a stroller, and available HTRAC® all-wheel drive for the drive up to Big Mountain in January. It’s the SUV for households that carry kids, grandparents, dogs and gear, often all at once.
The Palisade was fully redesigned for 2026 with a bigger cabin and its first hybrid option, and the 2027 model carries that design forward. You now choose between two powertrains: the familiar 3.5L V6 for maximum towing, or the 2.5L turbo hybrid for more power and far fewer fuel stops. New for 2027, the Hybrid Calligraphy Black Ink adds a blacked-out look to the top of the lineup.2
Family-friendly features that matter every day
The Palisade isn’t trying to be a full-size, body-on-frame SUV. It’s built to be the one vehicle a growing household can live with every day, and it’s good at that job.
A third row people actually use
Choose seven seats with second-row captain’s chairs or eight with a bench. Captain’s chairs leave a walkway to the back, so kids can climb in without anyone folding a seat, while the bench adds one more spot for carpools. The third row is usable for teens and adults on shorter trips, and USB-C ports reach every row.2
Cargo space that flexes
With every seat up, there’s still room behind the third row for a grocery run or a stroller. Fold the second and third rows and you have up to 86.7 cubic feet for skis, coolers, bikes or a run to the hardware store. Fold just one side of the third row and you can carry long gear and six people at once.2
Four-season confidence
Available HTRAC all-wheel drive with Snow, Mud and Sand terrain modes helps when US-2 turns to slush or a gravel driveway hasn’t been plowed. Pair it with dedicated winter tires from our service team and the Palisade is ready for a real Montana winter.2
Palisade vs. Palisade Hybrid: one simple question
The Palisade V6 uses a 3.5-liter engine rated at 287 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque with an eight-speed automatic. It’s the configuration to choose if you tow up to 5,000 pounds, which covers many ski boats, pontoon trailers and small travel trailers headed for Flathead Lake or Whitefish Lake.1 Front-wheel drive is standard on most trims, and the XRT PRO comes with all-wheel drive standard.
The Palisade Hybrid pairs a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine with an electric motor for 329 combined horsepower and 339 lb-ft, more than the V6, through a six-speed automatic. It’s rated to tow up to 4,000 pounds and returns up to 34 combined MPG on Blue front-wheel-drive models, with an estimated range of up to 619 miles per tank.1,3 That means fewer fuel stops on trips to Missoula, Spokane or Calgary.
So the question is simple: if your trailer is over 4,000 pounds loaded, choose the V6. If not, the Hybrid gives you more power and better mileage. Not sure what your trailer weighs? Bring the paperwork to Clark Hyundai and we’ll check it against the specific Palisade’s ratings before you buy.
| 2027 Palisade (V6) | 2027 Palisade Hybrid | |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 3.5L V6 | 2.5L turbo four-cylinder with electric motor |
| Horsepower / torque | 287 hp / 260 lb-ft | 329 hp / 339 lb-ft (combined) |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic | 6-speed automatic |
| Max towing1 | 5,000 lbs | 4,000 lbs |
| Best EPA-est. combined MPG3 | Up to 21 | Up to 34 (Blue FWD) |
| Starting MSRP* | $39,735 (SE FWD) | $44,560 (Hybrid Blue SEL FWD) |
| Choose it if… | You tow heavier trailers or want the lowest price of entry | You drive a lot of miles and tow 4,000 lbs or less |
How the Palisade Hybrid saves fuel
The Palisade Hybrid doesn’t plug in, and you never have to think about charging it. The electric motor helps the turbocharged engine get the SUV moving, which is where a heavy three-row vehicle burns the most fuel. When you slow down, regenerative braking captures energy that would otherwise be lost as heat and stores it in the hybrid battery for the next start. At low speeds, the Palisade Hybrid can glide on electric power alone.
That makes the hybrid especially effective in the kind of driving most families do between Monday and Friday: stop-and-go traffic on US-93 through Kalispell, school pickups, errands in downtown Whitefish and short hops between Columbia Falls and Evergreen. Its EPA city rating of 33 MPG on Blue FWD models is close to its highway rating, so the savings show up around town, not just on the interstate.3
A word of honesty about Montana winters: every vehicle uses more fuel in the cold, and hybrids feel it most because the engine runs more often to heat the cabin and battery. Expect lower mileage on a subzero January morning than in July. Even so, many drivers find the hybrid’s year-round average well ahead of the V6, and the extra torque from the electric motor makes it feel strong when merging or climbing.
If you mostly tow heavier loads, the V6 remains the better tool. For everyone else, the Palisade Hybrid is the more efficient and more powerful choice. See Palisade Hybrid inventory or browse every Hyundai hybrid we have in stock.
A cabin that feels a class above
Every 2027 Palisade starts with a 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, and the Hyundai SmartSense suite of driver-assistance features.4 Step up to the SEL Premium for a sunroof, heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front and second-row seats, a 360-degree camera and Hyundai Digital Key 2.2
Limited and Calligraphy models add more premium materials and comfort features, and the Calligraphy is the Palisade to choose if you want the most luxurious long-distance cabin for a drive to Glacier with the whole family.2 Hyundai Blue Link® connected services let you remote-start the Palisade and warm the cabin on a 10-degree morning, depending on trim and subscription. Learn more on our Blue Link page.
Safety and driver-assistance technology
A vehicle that carries the whole family should help you watch the road. Hyundai SmartSense is standard on the 2027 Palisade and Palisade Hybrid, and higher trims add more advanced features. Depending on trim, the Palisade’s driver-assistance technology includes:2,4
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, which can warn you and apply the brakes if it detects a risk of collision ahead.
- Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Following Assist, which help keep the Palisade centered on long highway stretches.
- Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist, useful in busy parking lots and when backing out of a driveway.
- Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go, which keeps a set distance from the vehicle ahead in changing traffic.
- Safe Exit Warning and Rear Occupant Alert, two family-focused features that help protect kids getting out curbside and remind you to check the back seats.
These systems are designed to assist an attentive driver, not replace one, and sensors can be limited by heavy snow, ice or road grime. Keep cameras and radar sensors clear in winter. Our sales team can walk you through how each feature works during your test drive.

How to pick your Palisade in five steps
- Weigh what you tow. If your boat, camper or trailer is over 4,000 pounds loaded, choose a V6 Palisade, rated up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.
- Count your mileage. If you drive a lot of highway miles or commute daily, the Palisade Hybrid’s fuel savings add up fast.
- Decide on all-wheel drive. If you live up a gravel road, ski at Whitefish Mountain Resort or commute before plows run, add HTRAC AWD.
- Choose seven or eight seats. Captain’s chairs make the third row easier to reach; a bench adds one more seat for carpools.
- Drive it on your roads.Book a test drive and take both powertrains out on US-93 or Foys Lake Road. You’ll know quickly which one fits.
Palisade pricing, financing and inventory at Clark Hyundai
The MSRPs above are Hyundai’s published starting points. The price you pay depends on the trim, drivetrain and options on the specific SUV, plus current Hyundai incentives and your trade-in. Because Palisade and Palisade Hybrid availability changes week to week, the fastest way to see real numbers is to start with what’s on our lot.
Shop in-stock SUVs. Browse 2027 Palisade inventory and 2027 Palisade Hybrid inventory, or view all new Hyundai inventory to compare across models. If the exact trim and color you want isn’t here, ask us about incoming vehicles.
Finance or lease. Hyundai Motor Finance and our lending partners offer both. Financing builds equity and has no mileage limits, which suits families who drive long distances across Montana.

How the Palisade fits Flathead Valley driving
Life in the Flathead runs on short drives to big places, and each one asks something different of a family SUV.
Whitefish: The climb up Big Mountain Road to Whitefish Mountain Resort is steep and often snow-packed on powder days. An AWD Palisade with good winter tires handles it with skis and boots for four inside and the third row folded. In summer, the V6 can tow a boat to Whitefish Lake while everyone rides in comfort.
Columbia Falls: East on US-2 you pass through Columbia Falls and Hungry Horse on the way to West Glacier. It’s a popular day trip for visiting family, and a three-row SUV means nobody gets left behind. The Palisade Hybrid’s range helps when you’re driving from early morning to late evening around the park.
Bigfork: MT-35 winds along the east shore of Flathead Lake, with slow traffic in cherry season and tight turnouts. The Palisade’s 360-degree camera on SEL Premium and above makes parking at a fruit stand or a crowded Bigfork lot easier.2
Before a mountain drive, check MDT’s 511 road conditions, especially on Marias Pass and the Going-to-the-Sun Road corridor where seasonal closures apply. When the first snow sticks, our service department can mount and balance a dedicated set of winter tires.
