How much does the 2023 Hyundai Palisade cost?

Prices have softened 10.00% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 4,206 listings available, which suggests solid inventory availability.

If you find a listing below $32,367.53, 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 spaciousness, especially the third row. The feedback also highlights its strong feature content and family-friendly packaging.

The main trade-offs are that AWD is not standard and some shoppers want more engine power, plus features like folding side view mirrors and wireless Apple CarPlay.

For shoppers who want a family SUV that feels more upscale and better equipped, the Palisade’s refreshed design and expanded tech and safety content make it especially appealing. With 35.4% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s meaningful market opportunity if you shop carefully.

Is the 2023 Hyundai Palisade reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. Owner feedback also points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with praise for its value and comfort over time.

Hyundai’s test-drive notes reinforce that impression with a great warranty and three years or 36,000 miles of complimentary scheduled maintenance. The Palisade’s class-leading coverage helps reduce early ownership risk for used buyers.

For a used purchase, the biggest long-term risk is less about the brand promise and more about finding a well-kept example with a clean history and consistent maintenance.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.2% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the report carefully, because a clean listing percentage does not replace a proper history review. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re considering a higher-mileage example or a vehicle with optional equipment. Focus on condition, feature operation, and evidence of regular maintenance.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: SE models come with cloth seats and a six-way power-adjustable driver seat, while higher trims add heated, eight-way power-adjustable front seats and more upscale materials. The top trims also gain second-row captain’s chairs, while bench seating is limited to the lower 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’s Smart Sense suite is standard, including 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, and intelligent speed limit assist. Highway Driving Assist I is standard on SE, SEL, and XRT, while Highway Driving Assist II is standard on Limited and Calligraphy and available on SEL.
• Infotainment: A 12.3-inch touchscreen is standard, along with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, HD Radio, SiriusXM, Bluetooth, and WiFi hotspot capability. Wireless charging is standard on all but the base trim, and Digital Key 2 Touch is standard on SEL and up.
• 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:

• Base trim: SE gives you the core Palisade experience, but it lacks some of the richer comfort and convenience upgrades found higher up the range.
• Sweet-spot trim: SEL is the best value play because it opens the door to more available equipment, including the Premium package that adds many of the features found on upper trims.
• Premium/top trim: Calligraphy is the most luxurious choice, with premium materials, standard high-end tech, and the most upscale presentation.
• Off-road trim: XRT adds a darker, more rugged look, but it is not the best fit if you want the most family-friendly daily-driver setup.

The safety package is standard across the lineup, but Highway Driving Assist II is reserved for Limited and Calligraphy, with SEL getting it only as an available upgrade.

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

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully without rushing.

• Deal availability: 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,206 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.00% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 87.2% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $32,367.53, 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 $32,353 sits slightly below last year's $35,946.

That price movement suggests the market has cooled from a year ago, which can help you buy at a more favorable point in the cycle. For a future seller, that also means resale value may depend more heavily on condition, mileage, and trim desirability than on broad market momentum alone.

Well-equipped trims should remain easier to move than bare-bones examples, especially if they have strong service history and desirable features. The current pricing trend also gives you a clearer benchmark for judging whether a used example is priced aggressively or simply fairly.

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’s Smart Sense suite is standard, with 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, and intelligent speed limit assist. Safe exit warning is also standard, and rear seat occupant alert is standard on all but the SE trim.

Highway Driving Assist I is standard on SE, SEL, and XRT, while Highway Driving Assist II is standard on Limited and Calligraphy and available on SEL. The 2023 model also adds second-row side-impact airbags, which strengthens its safety story for family buyers.

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:

• 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.2% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.00% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds a facelift, more standard tech and safety features, and the new XRT trim.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $26,957, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $32,353 average.
• It offers a spacious, comfortable cabin with a strong family focus.

Consider the 2024 if:

• At $35,350, the 2024 costs more than the current year's $32,353 average.
• It adds standard three-zone climate control and Bluelink+ connected services.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of updated features, strong owner satisfaction, and current market pricing, the 2023 is the smart default. If your budget is tighter, the 2022 is the value route; if you want newer features and can spend more, the 2024 is the upgrade path.
