How much does the 2023 Hyundai Palisade cost?

Prices have softened 12.39% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 4,581 listings available, which suggests you should have a healthy range of inventory to compare.

Is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade a good car?

Yes — the 2023 Hyundai Palisade earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8.8/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Form and function, Cost effectiveness, Technology, and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its comfortable ride, great value, and spaciousness, especially the third row. The review summary also points to strong features and a well-equipped feel, which lines up with the Palisade’s family-friendly positioning.

On the trade-off side, some drivers want more engine power, and a few wish for features like folding side view mirrors and wireless Apple CarPlay. Even so, the Palisade’s comfort-first setup and generous cabin space make it a strong fit if you want a three-row SUV that feels upscale without chasing luxury-brand pricing.

The overview frames it as Hyundai’s flagship SUV, and the 2023 refresh adds more standard and optional tech and safety features to keep it competitive. Good and great deals account for 38.2% of listings, which is a solid sign that you can still find value in the market.

Is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. The owner summary also points to a great value proposition, a comfortable ride, and a vehicle that feels well equipped, while repeatedly emphasizing the Palisade’s spaciousness and family-friendly usability.

The expert notes reinforce that dependability story by highlighting a comfortable ride and a strong warranty. The Palisade also comes with three years or 36,000 miles of complimentary scheduled maintenance, which helps reduce early ownership costs.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is making sure the vehicle was maintained properly and hasn’t been neglected despite its strong reputation.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.2% — 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 that focuses on the cabin electronics, seat functions, and overall condition, since this model is loaded with tech and comfort features. It also makes sense to confirm that the trim you’re considering has the equipment you expect, especially if you want more advanced convenience or safety content.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The SE starts with cloth seats and a six-way power-adjustable driver seat, while SEL and XRT add heated, eight-way power-adjustable front seats with leatherette. Limited brings leather-trimmed seating, and Calligraphy adds premium Nappa leather, a more upscale interior presentation, and second-row captain’s chairs. The base trim also misses some higher-end comfort and convenience features that appear on upper trims.
• 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 and includes forward collision avoidance, driver attention warning, high beam assist, lane-keeping assist, lane-following assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, navigation-based Smart Cruise Control with stop and go and curve control, and intelligent speed limit assist. 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: Every trim gets a 12.3-inch color touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, HD Radio, SiriusXM, and Bluetooth. WiFi hotspot capability is standard, and wireless charging is standard on all but the base trim. SEL can add a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, while Limited and Calligraphy get it standard.
• Fuel efficiency: Front-wheel-drive models return 19 mpg city, 27 highway, and 22 combined. 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 value entry point if you want the Palisade’s core strengths at the lowest price. You still get the V6, the full Smart Sense safety suite, and the standard 12.3-inch touchscreen, but you give up some of the richer comfort and convenience features found higher up the range.
• SEL: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it opens the door to more comfort and tech without jumping straight to the top end. It can add the Premium package, which brings many of the features found on Limited and Calligraphy, including heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats and heated third-row seats.
• XRT: This trim adds a more rugged look with a dark grille, roof cross rails, skid plates, black 20-inch wheels, and unique exterior accents. It also gets standard Highway Driving Assist I and a single sunroof, but it is unavailable with the in-car intercom.
• Limited: This is the step up if you want a more premium feel, with leather-trimmed seating, heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats, heated third-row seats, a standard Harman Kardon audio system, a digital instrument cluster, and a head-up display.
• Calligraphy: This is the most luxurious choice, with premium Nappa leather, distinctive exterior and interior touches, standard advanced convenience features, and the most upscale presentation in the lineup.

Safety content notes that Highway Driving Assist II is available on SEL and standard on Limited and Calligraphy, while Highway Driving Assist I is standard on SE, SEL, and XRT.

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

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Deal availability: 38.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,581 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.39% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 84.2% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $30,253, 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 $30,253 sits slightly below last year's $34,532.

That price movement suggests the Palisade has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price today. A softer market now can also make it easier for you to find a well-equipped trim without paying peak pricing.

If demand stays steady for roomy, well-equipped three-row SUVs, the Palisade should remain reasonably attractive on the used market. 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 2023 Hyundai Palisade has not been rated as of this writing, but it builds on the 2022 model’s Top Safety Pick+ recognition and adds new active and passive safety features, including second-row side-impact airbags.

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

Hyundai Smart Sense is standard, and the feature list includes forward collision avoidance, driver attention warning, high beam assist, lane-keeping assist, lane-following assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, navigation-based Smart Cruise Control with stop and go and curve control, and intelligent speed limit assist. Safe exit warning is standard on all trims, and rear seat occupant alert is standard on all but the SE.

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. That means the upper trims bring a more advanced driver-assistance setup, while the base trim still covers the essentials well.

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:

• 38.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.2% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.39% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2023 refresh adds more standard and optional tech and safety features, plus the new XRT trim.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $25,187, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $30,253 average.
• It offers a spacious, comfortable three-row layout with a quiet cabin.

Consider the 2024 if:

• At $33,036, the 2024 costs more than the current year's $30,253 average.
• It adds standard three-zone climate control, Bluelink+ services, and the Calligraphy Night Edition.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, features, and current-market availability, the 2023 is the smart default. If your budget is tighter, the 2022 can save you money while still delivering the Palisade’s core space and comfort. If you want the newest touches and are willing to pay more, the 2024 is the upgrade path.
