How much does the 2023 Hyundai Palisade cost?

Prices have softened 10.15% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 4,321 listings available, which suggests you have a healthy amount of inventory to compare. If you find a listing below $32,223.44, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade a good car?

Yes — the 2023 Hyundai Palisade earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Form and function, Cost effectiveness, Technology, and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its great value, comfortable ride, and excellent features. They also highlight its spaciousness, especially the third row, which is a strong fit if you want family-friendly room for taller passengers. The main trade-offs are that some drivers want more engine power and would prefer features like folding side view mirrors and wireless Apple CarPlay.

That lines up well with the Palisade’s role as a three-row family SUV that aims to feel more upscale and better equipped than a typical utility vehicle. With 29.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, you still have room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. The owner feedback also points to a vehicle that feels dependable and trouble-free in everyday use, with praise centered on value, comfort, and features that make it easy to live with over time.

The expert notes reinforce that impression by calling out Hyundai’s great warranty and three years or 36,000 miles of complimentary scheduled maintenance. That kind of coverage can reduce early ownership stress and help you budget more confidently.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about basic ownership support and more about choosing a well-kept example with the right equipment and condition history.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Hyundai Palisade?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because a clean listing percentage does not replace a proper records review. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are shopping higher-mileage examples or a trim with more equipment to inspect. Focus on condition details that matter in a family SUV: seat wear, electronics, and signs that the vehicle has been used hard.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: SE starts with cloth seats and a six-way power-adjustable driver seat, while SEL and XRT add leatherette and heated eight-way power-adjustable front seats. Limited and Calligraphy step up to leather-trimmed or premium Nappa leather interiors, plus heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats and heated third-row seats. If you want eight-passenger seating, you need one of the lower trims with the bench-seat setup.
• Powertrain: Every 2023 Palisade uses a 3.8-liter V6 with 291 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available on any trim.
• Safety package: Hyundai Smart Sense is standard, with forward collision avoidance, driver attention warning, high beam assist, lane-keeping and lane-following assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, navigation-based Smart Cruise Control with stop and go and curve control, intelligent speed limit assist, and safe exit warning. Highway Driving Assist I is standard on SE, SEL, and XRT, while Highway Driving Assist II is available on SEL and standard on Limited and Calligraphy.
• Infotainment: A 12.3-inch color touchscreen is standard, along with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, HD Radio, SiriusXM, Bluetooth, and standard WiFi hotspot capability. Wireless charging is standard on all but the base trim, and SEL and up can add or include more advanced connectivity features.
• Fuel efficiency: Front-wheel-drive models return 19 mpg city, 27 highway, and 22 combined, while all-wheel-drive models return 19 city, 25 highway, and 21 combined.

Which 2023 Hyundai Palisade trim should I buy?

The 2023 Hyundai Palisade is offered in 5 trim levels: SE, SEL, XRT, Limited, and Calligraphy.

Here's the short version:

• SE: This is the entry point, but it still gives you a strong value story with standard safety tech, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, WiFi hotspot capability, and the core Palisade comfort and space. It makes sense if you want the lowest price and can live without the richer cabin upgrades.
• SEL: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds heated front seats, leatherette upholstery, and access to the available Premium package. If you want to maximize equipment without jumping straight to the highest trims, this is the one to focus on.
• XRT: This trim adds a more rugged look with dark exterior details, skid plates, black 20-inch wheels, and roof cross rails. It suits you if style matters and you want a more distinctive appearance without moving into luxury territory.
• Limited: This is where the Palisade starts to feel notably more upscale, with leather-trimmed seats, ventilated front and second-row seats, heated third-row seats, a digital instrument cluster, a head-up display, and standard Highway Driving Assist II. It is a strong choice if you want a near-luxury family SUV.
• Calligraphy: This is the most luxurious version, with premium Nappa leather, unique exterior and interior details, standard Highway Driving Assist II, and the most premium presentation overall. Choose it if you want the most upscale Palisade experience and are comfortable paying for it.

The safety package is strongest on Limited and Calligraphy, where Highway Driving Assist II is standard.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Hyundai Palisade?

This is a moderate, selective-buyer market, so you can shop with some leverage if you stay disciplined.

• Deal availability: 29.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,321 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.15% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 87.5% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $32,223.44, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade's resale value?

The current average of $32,216 sits slightly below last year's $35,855.

That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can help you buy more affordably now. For a future seller, the softer current pricing means resale upside may depend more on condition, mileage, and trim desirability than on broad market momentum. Well-equipped examples should still draw interest because the Palisade has strong family-SUV appeal and a reputation for value.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade safe?

The 2022 Hyundai Palisade earned a Top Safety Pick+ from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and the 2023 model has not been rated as of this writing.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Hyundai Smart Sense is standard, and it includes forward collision avoidance, driver attention warning, high beam assist, lane-keeping and lane-following assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, navigation-based Smart Cruise Control with stop and go and curve control, intelligent speed limit assist, and safe exit warning. Highway Driving Assist I is standard on SE, SEL, and XRT, while Highway Driving Assist II is available on SEL and standard on Limited and Calligraphy.

A notable caveat is that the rear seat occupant alert is standard on all but the SE trim, so lower trims miss that added layer of family-focused protection. The 2023 model also adds second-row side-impact airbags, which strengthens its safety story further.

Should I buy a 2023 Hyundai Palisade or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 29.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.15% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds a facelift, more tech and safety features, and the new XRT trim.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $26,699, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $32,216 average.
• It offers a spacious, comfortable, feature-rich family setup.

Consider the 2024 if:

• At $35,177, the 2024 costs more than the current year's $32,216 average.
• It adds standard three-zone climate control, Bluelink+, and the Calligraphy Night Edition.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of updated features, strong safety content, and a softer market price, the 2023 is the smart default. If your priority is saving money above all else, the 2022 is the better value play. If you want the newest updates and are willing to pay more, the 2024 is the step up to consider.
